Cubed and Dangerous

The result was levels 'clearing themselves' sometimes, usually after a wave that ended very quickly (common on large AOE builds, or very high move speed builds). This shouldn't happen any more, or should at least happen significantly less than it was before. A side effect will be slightly longer speed run timings if you were relying on wave nodes to be randomly "easier clears" than other nodes... but should otherwise be an improved experience. Additionally, while reforging items multiple times it was possible to exceed some max stacking thresholds for all attributes on items. This resulted in a log error message that doesn't actually impact gameplay but will interrupt your experience to give you the "bug report window". The root cause has been improved to allow more instances of reforging before diminishing returns kick in, and to change the logging to not disrupt gameplay should the situation still occur for you. Optimization Some enemy pathing and targeting raycasts were including layers that were not needed, and were incorrectly not filtering out item pickups and some of the practical effects that rely on bounding boxes (particle explosions, drone nuts and bolts, etc). This has been fixed now as well, which should improve some performance on lower spec CPUs that were previous struggling during very large encounters due to the extra workload on the physics system. There have also been reports from players with videos cards much better than mine and my test machine, that frame rates can completely tank during character select. Some of this is just a quirk for how characters are rendered offscreen in this game (and unfortunately can't be easily changed), so some slight lowering of framerate will be required. The good news, thanks to a very helpful player who sadly wished to remain anonymous and not be called out for their incredible assistance on this: We've found and have fixed an issue with the render textures themselves (format changes, better size calculations and allocation logic). This should improve the issue across all hardware, with a pretty significant improvement on more modern GPUs. Thanks everyone for checking out the game!
