Bug Fixes:

• Skeletons with skulls now correctly drop them when defeated
• Dead trees can no longer be teleported without falling over
• Rings no longer appear on the corpses of NPCs who are not wearing rings
• Accessing the equipment menu of a mercenary now correctly displays their name instead of "Dynamic Object"
• Optimized how skill damage is applied on hit, should improve performance

A solid update If I say so myself. One major part of this update was an optimization I made involving weapons. Not only does it remove many unnecessary checks and and triggers, but it also makes it easier for me to add new weapons to the game more quickly, without sacrificing any gameplay. You can expect new weapons to be added to the game more frequently then before.

The next update is gonna be 5.8 which should be similar in scale to this one, and then I plan on 5.9 being a technical bug fix and small tweaks build to keep the game stable, while I spend a lot of time working on 6.0

I'm not sure what I have planned but I want 6.0 to be a sizeable update with new areas to explore and at least one major rework. I also want to make sure there is at least 1 unique item in every layer of hell, so that it's worth exploring.

Thanks for reading and thanks for playing.
