After some intense testing and some wonderful collaboration with community members we have a new bug fix patch release. There are a few new things snuck in, but mostly we targeted multiplayer stability and fixes. There are a couple of major changes and fixes that took place. Some of the major changes include a fix for jumpy behavior at low frame rates, client side world chunk caching, and localized player position updates. The full patch notes are included below.
