1.1.0
Hey Beekeepers!
Wow what a release, thanks so much for everyone who's been playing, leaving us the most wonderful reviews, and helping us clean up some of the less friendly bugs!
This update is pretty much just various fixes that seemed urgent, including a fix for rejoining your friends MP game crashing / clearing your progress. NOTE: if it's still not loading (from somehow getting corrupted during a crash) you'll need to clear your "players.json" file in %localappdata%
Also I've tried a slight change to GameMaker's SteamWorks extension that I'm hoping helps the few of you seeing that weird "Steam Not Connected" screen when you're literally in Steam - let me know if it helps! HOWEVER, achievements won't unlock for you - I've had to raise a support request with GameMaker directly. But it's the lesser of 2 evils, either your steam won't initialise and you can't play the game, or no achievements but you can play the game :')
I'm still looking into the "desync" issue that can sometimes occur for a few of you, usually it would be from bad/busy internet connection but I think there might be something in-game thats triggering a big flow of packets that is overwhelming the other player's socket. If you think you've been able to replicate this desync by doing something specific please come ping me in Discord!
