s&box Small Update 26.05.20b Patch Notes (22nd May 2026)

Two days after the previous s&box update added Platform Chat to the platform, Facepunch is already back with a follow-up. Small Update 26.05.20b dropped today, and the headline fix is exactly what you'd expect from a freshly shipped feature: clients weren't actually receiving messages in the new chat overlay. Not a great look for a communication tool on day two.

Alongside that, the patch corrects game video settings being overwritten in the editor, which would have been quietly annoying for anyone building or testing content since the last update. There's also a fix for certain objects turning transparent incorrectly, a regression introduced by the opaque fade fixes that shipped previously.

None of this is dramatic, but it's the right call to push these quickly rather than let a broken chat system sit for a week. Small patches like this are a sign that Facepunch is watching the fallout from their own releases, and that's how it should work.

Here's the full breakdown.
