To my fellow Godir,
Today we offer you a Patch once more. Amongst these offerings are stability fixes in several of the Rendering & Animation systems, fixes for AI hangs and a variety of Gameplay crashes. We’ve also tackled some minor exploits that were discovered and resolved a few modding related issues.
Short and Sweet, if I say so myself. May your Pantheons thrive.
