Bug Fixes & Improvements

Multiplayer

Fixed an issue where progression was only awarded to the host in multiplayer sessions. Map unlocks are now correctly shared.
Character unlocks are now correctly shared.
Mission progression is now correctly tracked for connected players.
Fixed an issue where players who had not yet unlocked Infinite Mode could become stuck on the end-of-run screen when the host continued into Infinite Mode.
Fixed an issue where a client's current health could exceed their updated maximum health, causing the health bar to overflow.

Combat

Fixed an issue where enemies could get stuck near the cave and stop properly attacking players or the King.
Fixed an issue where Archers near the stairs could enter a state where they could neither hit players nor be hit by projectiles.
Fixed Trebuchet projectiles sometimes failing to explode when hitting the ground.
Fixed Slow and Fireball spells failing to collide correctly when hitting the ground.

Balance

Reworked Ring rarity scaling so higher-rarity Rings provide stronger effects.
Swapped the rewards for the 10 Missions Completed and 30 Missions Completed milestones, which had been accidentally inverted.
Adjusted the cost of additional slots.

Other

Fixed an incorrect resource requirement for the Parchment on Map 2.
Reworked several collision areas on Map 1 to prevent players from getting stuck or clipping outside the intended playable area.
Fixed various minor bugs and errors.
