​Performance patch (21.12.01)

Performance patch (21.12.01)

I am planning a bigger release for January, but recent changes have had such a profound impact on performance, all for the better, I wanted to drop these out sooner rather than wait!

So this patch has a few good tweaks and additions:

Bug fixes:

• Reflections preference is now saved correctly
• Beach Town wandering AI waypoints fixed
• Church terrain alignment fixed
• Restored tracking pillar to home base
• Complete level immediately after death bug fixed
• Fixed missing animation events / sounds for animals and enemies

New features / enhancements

• Minimap completely replaced - this brings a huge performance increase to the game!
  
• Added scaling of minimap markers - bigger is closer, small is further away
• HDRP settings tweaked - also bring huge performance increases!
• Added options to tweak graphics settings for further performance gains:
  • Swap volumetric clouds (slow) for flat clouds (fast)
  • Increase (slow) or decrease (fast) draw distance
• Added online high score table
• AIs excluded from all buildings
• Increased player fall damage
• Increased stamina usage for rolling and jumping
• Slower stamina recovery
• Decreased player climbing angle
• Treasure now "dropped" on death

Internal

• Fixed up scripting namespaces
