v10.5.0 - Quality of Life

Hello, folks! We are back with another quality-of-life release that brings a number of much requested changes and a number of fixes to maps.

We are excited for the coming weeks, as we have a large amount of new content that is nearing completion. We can't wait for you to get your hands on it. Keep an eye out for it soon! In the meantime, here is the change log!
