Changelog for the third build for beta 6 has been made available (still only available to Constellation members):

O Changed structure build restriction radius from 60 to 30 units (Means that you can now drop multiple structures within viewing range of each other.).
O Changed player build restriction radius from 25 to 16.50 units (Should reduce the amount of marines-standing-in-the-way to the bare minimum, makes medpack- and ammodropping easier.).

O Team join sounds now only play for the team joined.

O Combat scan deploy time halved to 0.25
O Combat scan is now triggered by partially cloaked aliens.
Note: Scan 'fires' every 3 seconds, so there is a window in which a fast alien can still close the distance.
O Alien flashlight tweaks: Marines in the alien's field of view are now lit up just like friendly structures and players.
O Hive drop check fix redux.
O Changed the health bar around structures to more acurately reflect its health. Full bar is now exactly 100% health, empty bar is 0%.
O Reset room_type to 0 after being digested to avoid sound issue.
O Recycling phasegates are no longer visually active.
O Fixed small bug from last revision where recycling wouldn't show on the health bar.
O Recycling IP now triggers change of marine status in queue.
O Knockback reduced to 1/3 for ducking players on the ground.

O Changes to hera
- Outside now has proper light level
