1.0.0 is here! This release includes many, many new features and improvements, and there's a good chance it includes one or two new bugs as well. If you run into any issues or weird behavior, or would like to give some general feedback, please write in the Discord thread! If you'd like to stay on the previous version, e.g. to continue playing in an ongoing async, make sure to manually install the mod to prevent Steam from auto-updating.
