##### [0.14.0] - 2022-01-07

###### Added

- Setting for disabling flashing lights
- Spectate mode for moderators.
- Currently playing music track and artist now shows in the debug menu.
- Added a setting to influence the gap between music track plays.
- Added a Craft All button.
- Server: Vacuum database on startup
- SeaChapel, greek/latin inspired dungeon for ocean biome coasts
- Entity view distance setting added (shown in graphics and network tabs). This setting controls
  the distance at which entities are synced to the client and which entities are displayed in.
  This is clamped to be no more than the current overall view distance setting.
- View distance settings that are lowered by the server limit (or other factors) now display an
  extra ghost slider cursor when set above the limit (instead of snapping back to the limit).
  Limits on the view distance by the server no longer affect the settings saved on the client.
- HQX upscaling shader for people playing on low internal resolutions
- Pets can now be traded with.
- Crafting recipe for black lantern
- Added redwood and dead trees
- Water will now move according to its apparent flow direction
- Added screen-space reflection and refraction shaders

- FxUpscale AA mode for higher quality graphics at reduced internal resolutions
- Graphics presets
- Sword
- Doors now animate opening when entities are near them.
- Musical instruments can now be crafted, looted and played
- NPCs now move to their target's last known position.
- Experience bar below the hotbar
- Bridges.
- Tool for exporting PNG images of all in-game models (`cargo img-export`)
- Calendar event soundtracks.

###### Changed

- Old "Entity View Distance" setting renamed to "Entity Detail Distance" (since this controls the
  distance at which lower detail models are used for entities).

  Immediate -> 'Vsync off'.
- Item pickup UI now displays items that members of your group pick up.

- Fixed crash due to zooming out very far
