Civics:

• Added: A limit of 5000 characters for election speeches was added to prevent errors in the server log for too long text.
  
• Fixed: Triggering a law that records a custom stat with a name length of less than three characters would disconnect the client from the server.
  
• Fixed: As a landlord, changing the bank account a rent goes to had no effect until the renter left residency and rented it again.
  
• Fixed: An issue with specific laws that caused the boot time of the server to become extremely long.

Art & Effects:

• Fixed: Sound effects were not playing when moving through plants.

• Fixed: Trees did not have wind animations.

Gameplay:

• Fixed: Debris and plants were not slowing down players and vehicles as intended.

Interaction:

• Fixed: Several issues with tree trunk physics that could have a multitude of potential negative effects, from them falling underground to catapulting players to space.
  
• Fixed: An issue that in specific circumstances could lead to the creation of untargetable ghost rubbles.
  
• Fixed: The interaction area for papaya plants was too small.

UI:

• Fixed: In specific circumstances food items in storages would not show or show a wrong shelf life bar until they were moved around.
