🎯 [Multiplayer] You can now disable the default Master Server client-server introduction process for your private Internet games (e.g., those you have added by pressing "favorite" on a public game).
🎯 [Multiplayer] Slightly improved (= reduced) bandwidth for servers.
🎯 [Multiplayer] It is now possible to adjust the network throughput of both server and client through three new variables in the config.cfg-file:
* Networking_MaxUnreliableEntitiesToSendDuringFrame (default: 15; lower means less data to send for the server)
* Networking_MaxUnreliablePacketsPerFrame (default: 5; lower means less data to send for the server)
* Networking_WorldSynchDelay (default: 1; higher means less data to send for both server and client)

Note that if you change these values too much from default, you will end up with weird behavior such as teleporting and rubber-banding for enemies and bullets.

-------------BETA BRANCH ONLY-------------
Game editor!

🎯 [Editor] An editor that enables creating custom experiences has been added. You can access it through a button in the game, or by running the executable "NienixEditor.exe" (Windows) or "NienixEditor" (Linux/MacOS) from the game directory. The editor (and the game) has support for Steam workshop. You can find a "Hello World" mod here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3097417872. Please let me know what you think about it either here or on Discord - your feedback is invaluable to help shape the editor before I add it to the main game branch!
