Hey Trailmakers!

We've another small hotfix update for Trailmakers today which fixes some issues with Saving and Loading with Mods and some pesky Oh No fixes related to those pesky Chickens...

Fixes
- Fixed Workshop Mods not being able to load or save correctly on certain hardware set ups.
- Fixed an issue related to Chickens, Jellyfish and Birds being killed on a server, the murderer leaving, and then any subsequent clients attempting to join would get an Oh No crash.
- Fix for a client Oh No Crash if a Chicken was killed whilst a client was late joining.
- Fixed an issue on older hardware that would lead to a crash rather than a timeout when loading into the larger maps.
- Fixed the Help video titles within the video not being localised correctly.

Hey Trailmakers!

Firstly, thank you all for the warm reception to the Mod Makers update! It's been fantastic not only seeing what the Modders have made so far, but also seeing other Trailmakers being able to easily enjoy these Mods!

Since the update released we've been tracking reported issues closely and we've put together a hotfix update to fix some of the more common ones we've been seeing!

Mod Related
- Fix for Mods not activating on certain system locales if not running in Single Process.
- Fix for Mods not error logging if not in Single Process.
- We've restricted Coins being earned from spawning items in with Mods.
- Fixed the initial mod UI placement so they don't appear in the corner of the screen.
- Fixed Gravity not reverting when disabling mods.
- Spawnmod should now show the default gravity as 14.

General
- Fixes for many of the reported Oh No's since the update went live.
- Fixed a nullref in Cannon Block Behaviour.
- Fixed nullrefs in structuregraphs.
- Fixed an Oh No with grid size position.
- Fixed the In-Game Help Screen only displaying five of the six columns.
- Fixed bullets not killing Chickens.
- Fixed the Oletto, Sunny Slide and Skull Island flythroughs not playing if no medal was earned on the track.
- Fixed the Carball Arena ball not rendering if LOD was set to Good.
