Update 0.5.4 – A Cautionary Tale of Castle Security

Hello, Engineers! This week we’ve got some good bugfixes for you again. Additionally, we have a Cautionary Tale of Castle Security for you; don’t leave large carts outside your walls, don’t leave rope hooks exposed on your castle walls, and absolutely don’t leave your doors open.
Amongst the bugfixes, we have a fix for the blocks not always connecting to each other correctly, a fix where building blocks would randomly consume small grids in the area, improvements to the crossbow aiming, and the return of the impaled skull.
For you modders out there, especially those who program, we have a nice DLL for you guys with all the whitelisted code you can hook into. You can add this DLL as a reference to your Visual Studio project to link against, and you will be able to see what you have access to in an easy way! It can be found in the ModTools folder in the Medieval Engineers Mod SDK.
