Since then, we've deployed a number of hotfixes addressing docking failures at certain stations, ship claim and Starmap issues, missing pledge items, and more.\n\nTeams are continuing to work through your reports, with additional fixes currently in testing. Every report helps us track issues down and get fixes moving faster, and we genuinely appreciate all of you who have taken the time to contribute through the Issue Council and Spectrum.\n\nLooking ahead, we've got a couple of maintenance windows planned this week, covering both bug fixes and new additions.\n\nFirst up, both the RSI Platform and the Star Citizen Live Service will enter maintenance tomorrow, June 2, starting at 08:15 UTC. Matchmaking will be disabled at that time to allow players to safely exit the environment ahead of RSI Platform maintenance beginning at 09:00 UTC. This downtime is not expected to exceed four hours. We will provide updates on the RSI Status Page as the maintenance progresses.\n\nWe're also targeting a Live Service maintenance window on Wednesday, June 3, to deploy Alpha 4.8.1. The update currently includes more than 30 fixes and additions, with more to follow. Keep an eye on Spectrum for more information soon!\n\nWhile work on improvements continues, we\u2019re also kicking off June with a splash of color and inviting you to show us yours for a chance to take home some loot.\n\nJune also marks the approach of Alien Week, with more details as we get closer. It also means that International Bar Citizen Weekend is right around the corner. For many of us on the team, it's something we look forward to every year. It's a chance to connect with all of you, put faces to handles, and hear your stories firsthand. We\u2019ll be hosting events near each of our studios around the globe, with more details available on Spectrum, and we hope to see many of you there.\n\nSpeaking of Bar Citizens, several members of the team had the chance to attend the Netherlands Bar Citizen last Friday alongside TwitchCon Rotterdam.
