Fix issue where co-op saves could get desynced causing friends to not be able to connect to a host's server. If you ran into this issue, it would be a good idea to have the friend who is unable to connect delete their cached data for the world under AppData/Local/Skyformer (click Manage Saves in the load save menu to open the folder directly). Going forward this should not be an issue anymore!…

Drones will attempt delivery regardless of whether the destination is full in order to increase throughput, because the destination could become not full along the way. Because of this, drones can commonly get queued up at the destination if it does become full, and queued drones will be visualized. There is an interface setting where you can enable showing these queue sizes. By default, the qu…
