IMPROVEMENTS:
- Adjusted how NPC wolf personalities are created, so fewer will have "average" personalities in the middle of the ranges.
- More ravens now circle above carcasses.
- Stranger wolves now tuck their tails when fleeing after losing a fight.
- Leaving wolf creation/modifying panel with unsaved changed now displays a confirmation notification on screen.
- Reduced the required howling time to place a carcass marker (because for wolves with long howls, some players had trouble placing markers if they didn't let the how finish completely.)
- Adjusted the single-tap (on spacebar or other key) duration requirement to be more accepting of various tap styles.
- Improvements to mate's behavior when following player.
- On Easy difficulty, cougars are much too easy to thwart.
- Carcasses spawn more readily now when player is low on health and food.
- Multiplayer lobby: New column indicating private games.
- Icons for Original Coats in Wolf Customization now show those actual coats (previously showed icons for the Classic Coats).
- Added "Hide Ironwolves" toggle in My Wolves and Setup New Game panel.
- Improvements to mate hunting behavior.
- Mate is more eager to attack calves and fawns during calf-mother fights.
- Mate is a bit less jumpy when attacked.
BUGS FIXED:
- Slough Creek multiplayer: Sometimes no music playing after leaving den.
- SC multiplayer: When choosing rendezvous site, text on World Map refers to dens instead.
- If you bite-hold a stranger wolf while sliding down a slope, wolves stop but camera keeps sliding.

- Mate won't quite go home when sent home alone.
- Game stalls at end of sleep period if a notification is trying to be displayed but cannot.
- Sometimes mate doesn't return to player after a hunting excursion.
- Mate still too easily "distracted" when following the player

- Mate gets stuck in loops near creeks when moving on their own.
- NPCs can get stuck behind mid-sized obstacles.
- Pups don't come out when mate returns home alone.
- Wolves sometimes don't react to dangerous prey animals, letting the prey pummel them to death. (In particular, mate when traveling alone and running into bison.)

- In multiplayer lobby, if the list of games refreshes, the current selection can switch to a newly added game.
