Hotfix 0.8.2.0b-d

Improvements:

Completly reworked controller cursor navigation in the skilltree and in the pathfinder, you will find the cursor navigation with the controller much smoother now
Added new controller sensitivity setting in the options which lets you adjust the sensitivity of your thumbsticks, this will give you complete control
New tooltip system for pathfinder that prevents the tooltips of your map and the tooltips for the radial menu to overlap when using controller input. The tooltips now dynamically re-adjust depending on which radial menu item has focus. This is how it looks in action.
Hideout Bosses now drop a chest that contains valuable items (v.0.8.2.0e)

Balancing:

Hideout Bosses now have reduced HP scaling
Shadow Farmer now spawns less chickens, chicken eggs now also have less hit points
Gatekeepers have reduced HP scaling

Bugfixes:

Fixed a bug which made it possible to call the pause menu during scene switches which could lead to a screen freeze in the options menu.
Fixed missing cursor in pathfinder on controller input (v.0.8.2.0c)
Fixed a bug which caused pressing the public league button to already switch to an online save file (v.0.8.2.0d)
Fixed missplaced leg on frog enemies (v.0.8.2.0d)
Fixed a bug that could cause no exit portal to spawn in the hideout arena (v.0.8.2.0e)
