Behind the Scenes
We have switched the runtime of the game to LuaJIT which will result in an overall better game performance. Sadly this means that Lua mods using the BLT will not work until they got updated. Besides that we further investigated the patch system and did some adjustments that should reduce the patch time for everyone in addition to using less disk space.
If you are currently using any BLT mods an update is required. This can be downloaded here:

Please remember that we cannot officially support user created mods. If you are having crashes or other issues disable modding before contacting support.
