Bug Fixes

  • Added Actors > Restore Wasp Collision.

Custom Files

    • This change can dramatically improve performance if you have lots of mods enabled but only a few have CustomFiles folders (like Mod Hacks for instance).

    • This returns the current version of the Mod Launcher.
  • Added the GetMainMod function.
