Sublight Patch 0.20.01
0.20.01 Short and sweet bugfix while work continues on some new features for the next few weeks. General Added additional validation to leaderboard scores to filter out potentially scummed runs. Fixed some issues where scores were not being loaded fully. Fixes Fixed an issue where Fleet support would never drop in loot pools. Fixed an issue where the market would sometime spawn in the 2nd level mountain The merchants have kindly been asked to stop their dwarfish tendencies of opening up shop in the mountains Barrage Core was incorrectly applying its combat benefits, leading it to be much weaker than intended. This and other equipment will be getting a slight rework in the next rework pass. But this was significantly weaker than expected so has been fixed.
