Performance

General
Engine
- Exception handling has been added to all official content. This addresses an issue where the optimizations we made to official characters were prone to hard crashes if an error occurred. Now in most cases if something goes wrong things should fail gracefully.
Gameplay
- You can no longer hitstop nudge down past the stage by nudging downward from onstage.
- Added an xSpeedConservation of 0.5 to the start of shield animation. This means shielding will stop your momentum nearly instantly if done while moving.
Controls
- The wavedash button is now usable in all situations on the ground where a jump can be used, including jump cancels and out of shield.

FrayTools v0.2.0
Rendering Error / Entity Corruption Bug Fixes
- We have made changes to FrayTools which prevent you from doing certain actions at times in order to prevent opened files from being corrupted. The below are all the cases that seemed to result in an invalid workspace state. In addition, this should address most cases of saving a corrupt .entity file (since you can’t save until a valid state is reached). - Access to the publish menu while an asset is loading is now prevented. - Ability to save an asset while the workspace is loading is now prevented. - Ability to close workspace while it is in the middle of loading is now prevented.
End-User License Agreement
- A formal End User License Agreement has been integrated with the software. You'll be presented with an agreement that must be accepted before being allowed to proceed from that point forward.
