2.13 fixes some bugs from 2.12
Sorry about the issues with 2.12, we got on it as fast as we can and heres 2.13 hopefully nothing major or minor for bugs. We have adjusted the memory system and without weeks of testing we wont know 100% and we really needed to get the connection timeouts under control.
2.14 will be out in a few days will get a more exact time as we will need community assistance to test that on the test server.
Thank you!
