First, a quick apology: My PC suffered a catastrophic failure last week (CPU socket pins broke off, leading to file corruption and system instability). As a result, I couldn’t upload a patch, and rebuilding my toolchain while restoring backups took quite some time. Because of this, this patch isn't quite as big as I originally planned—but don't worry, things are back on track!
