fixedFixed before the tournament, there was a semi-rare hard crash while harpooning that turned out to be partially related to inheritance, and now things are easier for me to adjust. More on the tournament in the video.
changedOther notable updates: • In simultaneous grapples, an A-button will appear and it’s a frantic race to out-mash the other player to break free. This fixes stalemates that were happening in VS when ropes couldn’t be cut
