Hey everyone here is the first patch with a good chunk of performance improvements in it, I have not gotten to every bug reported yet but this patch does also contain several major bug fixes. The next patch will be out in a few days and will continue with performance improvements, bug fixes and a big improvement will be finally fixing the weather effects going through buildings (I have come up with a good solution for this internally and will begin properly implementing it very soon!). As always thank you for supporting and playing the game!
