Patch Notes 0.94

Hello everyone, I finally had time to prepare the 0.94 patch notes. If 0.93 was already considered a “long” update, 0.94 doubled that goal. In “docs” format, the update ran past 160 pages, largely because of the formulas that support the new Crafts system, but a great deal was modified.

If you’re interested in understanding some of the abrupt changes, check out About 0.94, where a lot of the thinking behind them is laid out.

Below are the main points of modification, removal, and addition in this edition.
