Bug Fixes

  • Affects Kill All, Toggle AI, Destroy Willies, Clear Blood, Clear Objects.

Improvements

• [World] Clear Blood no longer has an amount slider.
  • It now performs a full clean in one action.
• [Item Spawner] Implemented modular weapon spawning.
  • Weapons now spawn fully assembled with correct parts (grip, head, guard, pommel) instead of just the base blueprint.
• [Item Spawner] Added class caching for faster repeated spawns.
• [Menu] Improved tooltip appearance with consistent padding and styled popups.
• [Menu] Improved notification sizing and rendering (looks better with improved performance).

Other Changes

• [Player] Removed Save Loadout (was non-functional).

• [Item Spawner] Removed items that no longer exist in the game (Rapier, Giant Mace, some polearm tiers).
• [Launcher] Renamed "Dev Builds" to "Beta Builds" across the entire project. I've decided to finally name them "Experimental Builds" since it's more commonly used. Will update in the next release to reflect this change.
