• Fixed Session:LowPriorityDeploymentProcesses not being respected when adding firewall rules. (#1742 @Cyberboss)

Core

• Fixed an issue where the initial watchdog launch on server startup could fail due to a 503'd bridge request. (#1742 @Cyberboss)
• Large internal code cleanup and standardization. (#1742 @Cyberboss)
• Fixed a rare issue that could cause BYOND topic requests to fail. (#1742 @Cyberboss)

• The .deb package now runs tgstation-server as the user tgstation-server. This user has minimal permissions. More may be granted manually by system administrators. IF YOU OPT TO UPDATE VIA APT, YOU MAY HAVE THIS USER AUTOMATICALLY SET AS THE SERVICE RUNNER, EVEN IF IT DOES NOT EXIST! To fix this, edit /etc/lib/systemd/system/tgstation-server.service and remove the User=tgstation-server line. (#1692 @Cyberboss)
• TGS now supports running DreamMaker coded games with OpenDream, the open source reimplementation of BYOND. Note that TGS requires the dotnet SDK version supported by the OpenDream version you'd like to use alongside it's normal ASP.NET Core runtime to build it. (#1666 @Cyberboss)
• The repository cloning job now reports checkout progress. (#1666 @Cyberboss)
• Fixed rare DreamDaemon startup failure that may occur due to a lingering socket. (#1666 @Cyberboss)

• Added a workaround for a potential hang while recording process output. (#1666 @Cyberboss)
• "Based on what?" meme for Discord chat provider removed. (#1628 @Cyberboss)
• TGS now requires the ASP.NET 8 runtime. (#1614 @Cyberboss)
• The setup wizard will now ask if you want to use encryption when connection to a Microsoft SQL Server. (#1614 @Cyberboss)
