Astatos update for 7 January 2022

To the Crown Mages,

Today we have updated the version of Astatos to 0.1.4. This update was pushed due to some time-sensitive changes needing to be made to the server to improve it's stability.

As a result of this update being release a little suddenly, some changes to the game are currently a work in progress. Over the past week, we've been working on a clean-up and refactor to the code for Trials to provide us a nicer codebase to continue working on. As a part of this, thousand of lines of code have been modified.

Due to this, you may find both fixes to areas such as the Trial Stage; as well as new bugs in other places as we continue to work through the codebase. We aim to resolve any issues as they are reported, but also ask for some more time to get everything in tip-top shape!

• From the team at Studio Klondike
