Whoa, wait a minute, it hasn't been 2 weeks since the last update! I'll be traveling outside the country from June 6 to 11, so I wanted to push out an early update before then. The next update will be on June 15, so it'll be back to the normal schedule. This may look like a lot of bugfixes, but believe me when I say that there are a TON more bugs on my list where these came from. Most of these bugs were found through player submissions. So keep sending those reports!
