Patch v12.37

• Removed expected age: now, as long as there is detritus in a location, a fungus has a 90% chance of staying alive. This means they can become very old.
  
• Fungi now live in cycles of 60 days, only showing themselves the last 20 days of the cycle. This prevents every world being full of mushrooms all the time.
  
• Made larger fungi less likely by decreasing temperature and wind resistance with size
  
• Fixed inverted temperature resistance statistics when hovering a cap in the editor
  
• Added a LOD mechanism to mushrooms, so they dissappear when you zoom out, to save performance
  

• Made short grass better in low temperatures and long grass better in high temperatures, and vice versa
  
• Tiles with grass now always have detritus, as it represents a constant cycle of grass plants dying (and being replaced)
  
• Fixed plant behavior when dropping grass in a place that already had a plant: it no longer becomes transparent, and no longer moves a bit as if replaced
  

• Added leaf scaling to the random mutations system
  
• Fixed potential illegal state that could be achieved by mutating some fin types in subslots
  
• Fixed mutating carapaces (turtle shells)
  
• Fixed plants with detached roots
  
• Found and fixed another reason that caused animals to incorrectly show plants as their ancestor
  

• Added more variation and intuitive statistics to minimum and maximum temperature
  
• Buffed moisture resistance, to open up a larger part of the leaf tree to wet planets
  

• Shortened top row button tooltip delay
  
• Fixed 'millenNia' typo that has been there for 5+ years :(
  
• Better error message when trying to create an animal that fertilizes eggs externally, but doesn't lay eggs asexually
  

• Fixed position of large leaves when moving in the wind
  
• Fixed plants far away from the camera continuing to move fast when the player switches to normal time speed
