Heyho!
Besides a bunch of bugfixes (hopefully fixing the last broken achievements), this patch mostly focuses on one major goal: Introducing a simple modding system.
When installing external mods to the game, Steam had kept reverting them when updating. I had hoped that I solved the issue in the 1.0.1 patch by improving the organization of the files that were prone to causing conflicts, but it appears that checksum mismatches alone can be enough to trigger steam reverting files and thus all "installed" mods.
The new mod loading system I have implemented over the week was originally planned for 1.1.0 as I don't want to implement high-risk features like that in patch releases and it's very likely I have overlooked something and will have to do a hotfix over the weekend - but its support for adding game modifications without overwriting old files should finally fix the problem of steam reverting mod installations for good.
I have also seen various players create their own changes to the game. If you would like to stop those from getting overwritten as well, check out the sample-mod in the mods/ folder to see how you can turn your own changes into a proper mod that can be persisted across updates!
