  • Pressing "F9" in the song wheel with a folder open now picks a random chart from that folder
  • Leaderboards now show 2 decimal places for EX (99.0% -> 98.95%)
  • Updated Autoplay & Autodrift to be more accurate
  • Updated Song Select score & stats UI
  • Updated fallback fonts to include more symbols and characters
