# Insider Patch Notes 3.8.1.4

Insider Update 3.8.1.4 is now live. This update adds new Quick Commands, improves the Spawn Radial for faster item access and brings key Custom Seas tools together within the Game Options menu.

If you encounter any bugs while playing in Insiders, please head to the 
[Sea of Thieves support site](https://support.seaofthieves.com/hc/en-gb) and 
[report an issue](https://support.seaofthieves.com/requests/new) with our Player Support team.

## Custom Seas

**New Quick Commands**

* Hide Pirate - This command hides the player’s pirate from others in the session. Using the command again reveals the pirate once more.

* Invulnerability - This command causes the player to become invulnerable to all damage.

* Ship Invulnerability - This command, when used during Quick Sail, prevents all damage to the ship, including holes, flooding, fire and damage to ship parts.

* Repair Ship - This command, when used during Quick Sail, fully repairs the ship.

**Spawn Radial Improvements**

* The Spawn Radial now allocates a slot to the most recently spawned item, allowing quick access to the last chosen treasure item or creature.

**Game Options Menu**

* Players opening the Game Options menu (Escape on PC, Options on Controller) now have quick access to the Quick Command Menu, Session Overview, View Scoreboard and Free Camera, alongside the existing options.

## Known Issues

**Gameplay**

* After server migration, some players may see different times of day on the same server.

* Occasionally, outpost characters may be missing from their usual locations across Plunder Outpost.

## Fixed Issues

**Gameplay**

* The Loyalist of the Flame Commendation now progresses when players complete the rebalanced Playing the Part Commendation requirements.

* Further improvements have been made to the retrieval of purchased supplies from the Merchant Alliance or Hunter’s Call, ensuring crews cannot receive duplicate items.

**Custom Seas**

* Ships arriving at the Seas of Sailor's Grave now spawn spaced apart when entering a session.

* Presets now correctly communicate the selected option within Custom Seas menus.

* Custom Seas menu windows now use consistent wording for action prompts.

**Visual and Audio**

* Pirates’ bodies no longer clip through the Smouldering Pegasus Capstan when using it.

* Players will now move around the lighthouse island in the Seas of Sailor’s Grave as expected.

**Text and Localisation**

* The Select Seas screen has been updated to use a standard dialogue layout, improving consistency with other menus.

* Grammar issues have been corrected during dialogue with characters in The Reaper's Lair.

* Reaching Allegiance level 90 with the Guardians of Fortune now displays the correct Title that has been earned.

* Missing spacing within Title descriptions has been corrected.

**Performance and Stability**

* Players will no longer experience unexpected game closure after joining a session through an invite from a player on PlayStation®5.
