This patch is early today so that it can be tested with tons of people. It completely changes how the networking sends packets in the hopes of significantly boosting performance with many players, so the results of this test will determine how further networking optimizations proceed. If it goes poorly the game will be reverted to 3.9.9.5 and these notes will be deleted.
