Update 0.6.3 - Performance

Hello fellow Tinkerers

In the past weeks I worked on a performance patch to reduce gameplay issues in multiplayer sessions. There were severe issues that seemed like lag at first, especially when straying far away from each other. The major part of those were caused by performance issues (the server host may have noticed that his CPU has gone rampage).

This update doesn't feature new content, but I hope you enjoy a much smoother gameplay experience, especially in multiplayer scenarios.

Changelog:
- Increased performance for client and server
- Updated Playfab to eliminate connection issues
- NPCs do not roam around randomly anymore

A lot of hard work has gone into this patch, but stay tuned for some new DUNGEONS soon!

Happy Tinkering!
