## Lifecycle phases

Octopus **2024.2** adds a feature to mark a phase within a lifecycle as a priority. See [lifecycle phases with priority](/docs/releases/lifecycles#phases-with-priority) for more information.
Octopus **2024.3** adds a feature to mark a phase within a lifecycle as a priority. See [lifecycle phases with priority](/docs/releases/lifecycles#phases-with-priority) for more information.

## Task queue priority
In Octopus **2024.3** we have redesigned the task system. Tasks are processed based on their priority, in this order:
* Queued tasks that are moved to the top
* Tasks created from a prioritized deployment or runbook
* Regular tasks

Within each category, tasks are handled on a first in, first out basis.

The **Move to Top** button prioritizes the selected task above all others. This ensures that urgent tasks, such as hotfixes, can be addressed immediately.
