Hey Blacksmith's

Today's update has arrived with a lot of bug fixes and additions. I apologize it took so long to fix some of the  game breaking bugs and I thank you all for your patience.

As always, this update fixes issues but will most likely introduce new ones ( potentially old ones, but shouldn't).
