Please note:

• Beta builds are not fully tested like release builds. While we do some tests to make sure nothing major is broken, some bugs are to be expected.
• To play multiplayer with other players, you need to make sure all players are using the same version of the game.
• Mods may not be compatible with the Beta branch. If you plan on giving feedback, please deactivate all mods you have installed.
