Hotfix v0.14.9.74

This is a minor hotfix to resolve some bugs and stabilize a few issues.

There was a compatibility issue with dedicated servers on this patch which required us to move the update to the experimental branch temporarily. Those issues have been fixed and this patch is now live for everyone again as of 05/27!

Thank you to everyone who reported these things and helped give us additional information to get them fixed.

This patch should be live again on the main branch once we resolve this dedicated server issue.

See you around the Island!
