EDIT 12/4: One last fix for Linux! Should be fine now

EDIT 12/3 1:24 PM Paciifc: Found the issue with Linux and Mac builds, and posted a fix for now. We had to remove ONE trait from each, so D.I.N.K. is gone for now. This was due to a big bug that involves going over the 32 number limit for perks or traits. It\'s something we\'ll have to work on for the next update, STOMACH, so hopefully we can fix it then.

Lots of new content in this update, along with tweaks to old content such as perks and traits, and new mechanics added to the heavy \"Van\" vehicle type. Read more for a full list of changes for this update, a quick update on how Space Dingus is doing, and a preview and launch estimate of the next Death Road to Canada update: STOMACH.

\nHere is a message from the update developer, Professor Sycamore:

[c]Hello my beloved community! Professor Sycamore here. I\'ve worked hard to bring you this update as usual. There are some new, somewhat experimental features this update. This is also one of our largest updates yet. I hope you enjoy it, and please as ever don\'t be afraid to give feedback. I look forward to chatting with you all! [/c]

[c]STOMACH will be even bigger and better than this update, and is already in development also. Until next time <3[/c]
