**Changes**

- (Steam Only) Added pop ups that appear on Main Menu that appear when game detects the default save location has switched.

- (Steam Only) Added a Migrate Save Data option on these pop ups for when this happens which should gracefully move the data over to the default location - assuming it can write there.

- Added "Lazy Loading" to many UI elements across the game. What this essentially means is we no longer load all of these up front, we now load them as needed. On faster hardware you should not really notice a change other than sometimes seeing a glimpse of a loading icon. This change also addresses some nasty playsession leaks.

- Added an Overlay to the Drone Camera Block. On existing structures this will remain toggled off, it is toggled on by default on new Camera Drone blocks spawned in.

- Added Camera Index to HUD so you can see which camera you are currently using.

- Changed the Builder Snap to nearest 90 degree angle hotkey to N.

- Made Gold Chests in Pioneers, Airborne and High Sea appear on the compass and map. Discovery distance of 150m.

- Moved Smart Cannon to earlier in the campaign (Pioneers).

- Made Tenso easier to find. (Pioneers)

- Made the Dr Kramz mission more clear about the crate he wants you to find in the dark cave. (Pioneers)

- Fixed issues with tooltip visibility around the mode dropdown on the Steering Hinge.

- Fixed cases where template blueprints do not correctly switch to their Keyboard/Controller variants when switching inputs in Builder.

- Fixed Glowfruit resource dropping offset to it's actual position.

- Fixed Cirrus not having correct Intercom set up in Empirical Extractions in Pioneers.

- Fixed case of the Camera going crazy for a few frames when spawning a structure in builder > opening paint shop and exiting Builder with controller.

- Fixed the DLC Block Crates still being counted in the total progress UI when DLC was not owned.

- Fixed cases of texture changes not correctly being saved if saving a structure through the unsaved structure dropdown.

- Fixed cases of a block moved out of the mirror pane not having the correct texture applied.

- Fixed Cockpit Seat having incorrect aero.

- Fixed cases of Energy Blade visuals getting a bit wild when moving or adding one to the builder.

- Probably maybe fixed cases of engine/thruster VFX not rendering in RC structures.

- Fixed some rogue floating rocks in Pioneers.

- Fixed/improved bounciness on very small structures with wheels.

- Fixed cases of braking being worse than expected with specific structures. (Wheel forces were being applied too high for certain wheels, which resulted in reversal of weight shifting from braking and turning for very low center of mass structures).

- Fixed wheel rotation not being reset when entering builder, making decal placement a pain,

- Fixed cases of detachable blocks leaving behind invisible colliders.

- Fixed cases of blocks getting stuck in certain positions after be
