Notes:

• Caps lock walk/run toggle REMOVED for now - this was a massive frustration for new and veteran players.
• Movable UI elements are in (they don't save position yet, also don't drag them off screen :smile: )
• Map reveal radius doubled when exploring the world - Makes revealing the world map less tedious and much more reasonable.
• Map and Minimap default zoom much further out - many new players were noting that the world map was way too cluttered due to the default zoom being way too close.
• NPC, Player, and Monster markers size reduced. This reduces pixelation and map clutter.
• UI Spacing/Positioning updated to be more clean.
• Chat Font Size reduced. We will bring this back up next patch as it feels a little too small now.
• Minimap rotation bug fixed.
• 21 total dances are now in game, up to /dance 21.
• 20 random emotes. (wave, cry, sob, bored, salute, etc)
• Priest: Flames Judgment fix.
• Hunting shot on mushrooms further reduced.
• Removed bladed grass on login screen which fixed the texture error on startup.
• Fixed the snow tiles that were blinding during the day.
• 8 new music tracks now in game.
• Random load screen wallpapers, let us know your feedback on these? Want to see more?
• Meteor shower collision effects updated.

Thanks for playing Ethyrial, we greatly appreciate it! Don't hesitate to share any thoughts or feedback in #general - we'd love to hear from you! :pray:
