This was originally planned to be the release with binding agents, but those haven't had progress done on them for a while, so here is a patch release with some important fixes that we didn't want to keep the players waiting for. The most important being the constant saving errors should be gone now (please open an issue if you still get saving errors), and we got a fix to the microbe AI being much worse than it should have been due to a small mistake in the code. This release also includes features that were done by this release.
