Lots of CPU Optimizations.

Fixed bug where clients couldn't see the host's bait after it was cast.

Fixed a bug where the troll could hit/kill you while you were in the cabin

Fixed a bug where bait would despawn after being dropped from the tackle box

Fixed a lot of bugs for the swamp map

Fixed various game crashes

Fixed a bug where a fish would say it was rotting even if it wasn't

Lots of other fixes that I never wrote down... whoops
