Update v0.7.4

More fixes, quality of life additions and a new way to revert multiplayer game saves in the UI rather than dealing with it in the save files. Also the join game network messaging setup was reworked to vastly reduce the size of the initial message sent to joining players, hopefully this fixes issues with some players not able to join their friends games. Thanks for all the reports! Features:

Revert save functionality for multiplayer games. There is a new tab in the host game UI that allows you to revert the game back to an auto-saved day save, deleting all the newer saves above it. This is for cases where the automated save is broken for whatever reason or things just need to be rolled back
New menu button to save the active mutliplayer game without exiting

Balance:

Blight clouds are no longer generated in the water anymore in new games started after this version

Fixes:

Fixed Blight cloud effects not being removed as they are cleared via the oleander burn
Fixed error when trying to double click to equip filled bowl while holding a two handed object like a log
Made the inventory substance count and crafting input ingredient substance count use the same rounding methods to fix cases where it looks like you could make less that the ingredients you actually have
Fixed rare error case where thrown projectiles cause a HUD UI error while they are in the air and "show nearby items" is toggled on
Wetness values of crafting ingredients are preserved for the output ingredients
Fixed ingame chat messages not being cleaned up properly once there are a lot
Fixed other players sometimes disappearing temporarily on joining players' computers
Fixed cooking/smelting losing some output items if they are normally too big to fit in the one stack output slot
Fixed jugs not evaporating when placed on hand carts
Removed unused output slot for copper alembic to prevent double-click from moving ingredients into the slot and preventing further distilling from happening

Visuals:

Reduced intensity of morning mist fog when cloudy

Other changes:

Reworked the join game message response from host to clients to be a quarter of the size to hopefully fix hosts unable to send all the data in one message through Steam and causing the client player to be unable to connect
Password input is hidden in host game UI (when not typing) and for join game password popup
Removed invite friend button for Mac version as the Steam overlay isn't supported in the game yet
A "New!" label for recently updated news on the right-side news section of the main menu

Blight is an extremely challenging and realistic single-player top-down perspective survival game.

The Blight
A mysterious new disease called the Blight has descended upon the land. You have managed to escape its devastating effects as it has consumed your village and left it to ruins - You now find yourself alone in the wilderness, tired and hungry. You've bought yourself some time, but for how long? The Blight grows larger every day, consuming everything in sight...

Realism
The game strives on providing a punishingly realistic and immersive experience with a ton of depth. Actions like chopping trees and cooking food take a lot of precious time. You can only carry a few things at a time. You need to boil water to make sure it's safe to drink. Water and other liquids need to be carried in bowls and other containers, and will spill out if not transported securely. You will need to scavenge numerous raw materials, many of which will need to be processed, combined, treated or hardened to make tools, items and structures.

Challenge
The Blight is just one of many threats to your existence in the unforgiving wilderness. After quickly setting up camp you will constantly need to keep yourself well fed and hydrated, replenish lost energy with sleep and short rests, defend yourself from the wild beasts that still inhabit the woods, heal your wounds, protect yourself from the harsh elements, and figure out a way to somehow end this terrible disease. Almost everything in the procedurally generated world can and will kill you if you aren't careful.

There are whispers of Druids in a far off land that may know more about the Blight...
