--v0.49.61 Notes:
Summary:
Changed career structure, added stat saving and displaying, minor UI changes, event time settings, better vehicle filtering, misc bug fixes.
Interface/Controls:
-Fixed: Issue of menu animations getting stuck or not playing when entering and leaving menus.
-Fixed: Issue where players can bypass restrictions check on a vehicle,
by switching to another vehicle and pressing continue,
applying restrictions only to the previous vehicle and not the new vehicle that is loaded.
-Fixed: Issue where pausing while wrecked and leaving to menu will cause camera errors. Temporarily disabled pausing while wrecked.

(Note: Stats are a representation of performance.
They do not affect the physics in any way, unless noted in physics.
Our goal is to get stats as close to the actual performance of the vehicles.)
