Slightly increased the playback speed of all attack animations.
Slightly increased player running and sprinting speed.
Jumping optimizations:

Roll optimizations:
Added diagonal Rolls.
During Mimicry, Roll is changed to a teleport with faster animation and will no longer be blocked by enemies.

Optimized all combat-related sound effects.
Added single-player cross-save gameplay: single-player and co-op modes now support cross-map, cross-save play.

Non-host co-op players will be prompted that only the host can switch saves when interacting with cross-map gates.
When a co-op host switches saves, all characters, including offline characters, will be transferred together, and all online players will be kicked.
When switching saves in single-player, the currently controlled character and all items carried in the backpack will be copied to the target save.
A secondary confirmation window will appear when switching saves.
