0.17.2.0 - QOL Improvements, Performance, Bugfixes, Save Reliability
Upgrade to golang v1.21.3 which among other fixes, has performance changes to lower latency.
Upgrade to ebiten v2.6.2-prerelease with some fixes including a rare audio deadlock issue, rare crashes, and upgrades to newer versions of OpenGL and WebGL.
Save reliability: Previously if the game completely failed to load a save and any backups for some reason, it would give up on the save and start a new save in that slot that will overwrite the old save. Now it will avoid overwriting it, instead start up in a special mode that warns you of what happened, allows you to change save slots, but specifically avoids overwriting the save slot that can't be loaded.
Save reliability: Now the game displays any corrupt save files if any exist, see info about them, export to clipboard (base64), etc.
Save reliability: Fix some bugs in save handling that could cause the game to mishandle an error.
Remake: Fix crash when game starts up.
Remake: Fix issue where sometimes on making a new world in remake, the map wouldn't show at all.
In the rare event of an error, game now displays error dialogs with extremely long error messages more properly (readable).
