			=96.0=

			==Major==
			*<span> kill memory leaks crippling large games (#4152)</span>
			*<span> kill micro-jitter in simulation framerate (#4171)</span>
			*<span> kill unclean exits causing various forms of corruption (#4053)</span>

			*<span> "nugget" is hereby officially promoted as the new umbrella term for widget or gadget</span>

			==Misc==
			*<span> default disable grass for ATI cards (crashes for some people)</span>
			*<span> made stacktrace-translation script recognize more crash/hang patterns</span>
			*<span> improve Shard AI for BA</span>
			*<span> fix some MSVC compile errors</span>
			*<span> TimeProfiler (alt+b) shows now max `lag` of each item</span>
			*<span> massively speedup caching with many .sdd archives</span>
			*<span> fixed some FreeBSD compile issues (thx AMDmi3)</span>
			*<span> dump (engine) shaders to infolog when they fail to compile</span>
			*<span> more extensive logging during shutdown</span>
			*<span> fix a number of potential issues if a thread crashes on engine shutdown</span>
			*<span> increase precision of several timer variables to preserve intermediate results</span>
			*<span> Lua: track more memory-allocater statistics for display in debug-mode</span>
			*<span> Lua: limit maximum amount of memory allocated globally and per handle</span>
			*<span> GameServer: always echo back client sync-responses every 60 frames (see #4140)</span>
			*<span> GameServer: removed code that blocks pause / speed change commands from players with high CPU-use in median speedctrl policy</span>
			*<span> GameServer: sleep less between updates so it does not risk falling behind client message consumption rate</span>
			*<span> LuaHandle: make time and steps spent on garbage collection configurable<br>CollectGarbage callin is restricted to run for at most<br>MaxLuaGarbageCollectionTime (user-configurable) millisecs<br>MaxLuaGarbageCollectionSteps (user-configurable) iterations</span>
			*<span> GlobalConfig: add new config-option 'UseNetMessageSmoothingBuffer' (see #4053)</span>
			*<span> LogOutput: make enabled 'section' log-levels configurable by users</span>
			*<span> MoveDef: add key 'allowTerrainCollisions' for handling units with super-sized footprints (see #4217)</span>
			*<span> SolidObject: make {Unit,Feature}{Pre}Damaged events receive the 'attacker' ID when object is crushed</span>
			*<span> QuadField: add raytraced projectiles to three cells instead of one</span>
			*<span> GameInfo: add map hardness label/value to 'i' overlay</span>

			==Sim==
			*<span> Rifle weapons can hit features too now and apply impulse to the target</span>

			==Lua==
			*<span> add gadgetHandler:AllowWeaponInterceptTarget</span>
			<span> LuaSyncedRead:<br>make Get{Unit,Factory}Commands (optionally) return just the queue's size<br>(ie. without copying the entire command queue into Lua VM memory, VERY*<br>important for performance when a nugget is not interested in the commands<br>themselves)</span>
			<br>"if #Spring.GetCommandQueue(unitID, -1 \| nil ) == 0 then return end" --> BAD, CREATES COPY OF QUEUE<br>"if Spring.GetCommandQueue(unitID, -1 \| nil, false) == 0 then return end" --> GOOD, DO THIS IF POSSIBLE

			==Bugfixes==
			*<span> fix #4215 (stack-buildable units on non-flat terrain)</span>
			*<span> fix #4209 (antinukes firing at nukes targeted outside their area)</span>
			*<span> fix #4205 (air-transports unable to unload hovercraft on water)</span>
			<span> fix #4204 (float3. clang compilation failure)</span>
			*<span> fix #4203 (air-transport unable to load units floating on water)</span>
			*<span> fix #4202 (S3O textures loaded multiple times instead of being cached)</span>
			*<span> fix #4200 (secret)</span>
			*<span> fix #4198 (amphibious units without waterweapons chasing hovercraft whilst underwater)</span>
			*<span> fix #4197 (units moving right up to their target instead of attacking from range)</span>

			*<span> fix #4163 (corrupted unit environment reflections)</span>
			*<span> fix #4161 (Spring.Restart failing when path contains spaces)</span>
			*<span> fix #4155 (reverse-built gunships maintain their vertical speed)</span>
			*<span> fix #4154 (calling LUS 'AttachUnit(piece, unitID)' turns following 'Move(piece, ...)' calls into no-ops)</span>
			*<span> fix #4152 (see 'Major' section)</span>
			*<span> fix #4149 (rendering corruption in DynamicWater mode)</span>
			*<span> fix #4144 (partly submerged units not hittable by non-waterweapons)</span>
			*<span> fix #4145 (depthcharges fired by ships having trouble to reach their targets)</span>
			*<span> fix #4138 (same as #4171)</span>

			*<span> fix #4053 (see 'Major' section)</span>
			*<span> fix #3749 ('initCloaked' UnitDef tag overriding user cloak commands for being-built units)</span>

			*<span> fixed wreckage heaps could be resurrected</span>
			*<span> LaserCannon: (once again) fix range overshooting</span>
			*<span> always clamp length of blended wind-vector to [map.minwind, map.maxwind]</span>
			<span> the 'AllowDeferredRendering' config options are now safe to enable</span>
