Quality of Life Improvements:

Unique Footsteps: Added distinct footstep sounds for each tile type.
Players can no longer drink almond water when at full health to prevent resource waste.
Added hand animations for drinking almond water and a better arm model for holding the flashlight.

Community Features:

Bug Report System: Players can now report bugs or send suggestions directly through the game by pressing F8 (Please do It, we'll make sure to have bugs fixed as soon as possible!)
You can also send your suggestions in the bug report system! We'll be happy to read every single one of them to improve the game.
Bugs will be fixed as soon as the report comes so send any you find! :D
Bug Fixes:

Addressed critical bugs in the Hotel networking.
The bug that stopped one of the players (usually the host) to load the DarkPoolrooms when coming from the Poolrooms has been fixed.
Fixed problems related to the SkinStealer as the AI was entirely redone.
Fixed problems with various puzzles that sometimes wouldn't sync correctly.
Fixed problems that made some players fall from the map
Code from most puzzles was redone, stopping most of the known bugs!
