1.4.0.2 was a minor update released on May 16, 2020.

Additions

• Added Master and Journey to command line options for the dedicated server.

Changes

• Ghosts are more likely to despawn, and the conditions which allow them to spawn has been reduced as well as the maximum number of them.
• Error logging no longer creates large DMP data files when the game crashes, as they were unused.
• Meteorites now no longer fall until after Eater of Worlds/Brain of Cthulhu has been defeated.
• Killing Eater of Worlds/Brain of Cthulhu again will boost the drop rate of subsequent Meteors for the following night (instead of breaking more Orbs/Hearts).
• Meteorites can no longer be destroyed with explosives.
• Pirate Captain now spawns a Pirate's Curse when he is killed.
• Dunerider Boots can now be tinkered with Rocket Boots to make Spectre Boots.

Bug fixes

• Added some protection to ensure world gen works for users using different language PCs.
• Fixed a number of issues where Terraria tries to make or modify folders, but User Side PC permissions prevented it from doing so, leading to crashes/errors.
• Fixed a crash relating sound initialization.
• Fixed a few autostart errors for the server.
• Fixed an issue with kicking players not actually being fully removed, preventing players from rejoining.
• Demon Altars can no longer spawn on rare configurations of adjacent cacti, which would crash the world if they were hit.
• Coins no longer have a sell value.
• Fixed an issue where Map Scale was impossibly low, resulting in some map related issues.
