Voxel Turf
Patch Notes: 1.0.6
Important: Do not repair lots with chests without withdrawing valuable items first, as chest contents are now wiped on repair to prevent an item duplication exploit that was causing issues in MP. I have a more permanent solution in the works. The tooltip for "repair" has had a warning added.
Also, the dedicated server is now available via SteamCMD via anonymous login. The appid is 526340
Finally, for now on I'll be offering "oldversion" branches that you can access through the steam beta version selector, so you can still play MP while servers are being updated. Created an oldversion1.0.5 branch.

VERSION: 1.0.5 - 19/09/17
==================
!! NOTE LINUX !! Linux distributions of the game no longer come with libstdc++-6.so in the search path as it was causing stability issues on some machines. You can still get them in LINUX_stdlib if you want them/can't get the game to start due to stdlib issues.
