[h2]Dinosaur Dressing Room[/h2]
-Added a dinosaur skin editor on the main menu. It allows you to create and save skins without needing to be connected to a server.
-This editor has a custom camera that can be moved freely around the dressing room using the regular movement keys.
You can use jump to move up, crouch to move down, and otherwise use the mouse/gamepad right stick to turn the camera view. `Secondary attack` allows you to snap the camera to whichever area of the character the mouse cursor is currently over.

[h2]AI Critters[/h2]

[h3]Malawania Critter AI[/h3]
+Added Malawania aquatic reptiles as a new kind of critter AI.
+The Malawania are an aggressive, free-swimming AI that will attack the player if they are spotted while in the water
-Malawania call to nearby Malawania to help, which can result in large numbers of them attacking at once
-Malawania will act fearful of more powerful or stronger players or will become fearful when low on HP.
+Malawania can be found on Rival Shores, Ancestral Plains, DM_Caldera, Forest Island, Isla Titania, and their canvas variants. A Malawania spawner can also be placed using the foliage placement tool.
+Malawania are designed to be Mosa, Krono, and Elasmo prey that fulfills the meat portion of a piscivore's diet. They drop satiated carcasses.
+They can be a major threat to terrestrial creatures who go for a swim. Be careful!
+Malawania have 550 health +- a randomized value. They move more slowly when very low on health and also respond to injury damage. They also passively heal over time.
+The Malawania can beach and will try to find water while beached. They slowly die while beached. They should avoid beaching themselves most of the time.
[h3]Playable Malawania[/h3]
+Malawania has the same stats as the AI malawania (550 hp, 40 base damage, 150 size, 0.75 attack cooldown with 8 abi as cost)

+Malawania has a piscivore diet that matches Ichthy's
+Malawania has a growth rate identical to Pachy's
+The Malawania has the same talent tree as the Arganodus
+Malawania has Para's alarm call. When this call is used on another player, all nearby Malawania will aggro to that player. They will then behave as if they spotted the player. The presence of alarm call increases the braveness of the Malawania so they are less likely to flee. However, if the player is very scary, they will still flee instead of attack.
+If you are playing as the Malawania, you cannot attack critter AI Malawania and the AI will act friendly towards you
[h3]Arganodus Critter AI[/h3]
+The Arganodus now swims freely rather than runs along the bottom of the Ocean, significantly improving its pathfinding and behavior
