Rebalancing work:

- Traps take longer to reset (spears, dart traps etc.; following feedback from PAX players)

- Several parts of the 2nd tutorial, were remade to be much more forgiving and instructive (following feedback from PAX players)
Optimization:

- Fixed several issues with flickering framerate with vsync on older systems.
Controls:

- Multi-jump ability can still be used even if it's not in the hotbar.
Graphics/Menu:
- New Weapon wheel graphics
- Some minor bug fixes with humanoid arms.
