0.81.1:
Engine / Simulation:
- Terrain types and water damage are now taken into account for pathing checksum
(Fixes desyncs on maps with map options which modify terrain types or water damage)

0.81.0:
Engine / Simulation:
- Builders are now smart enough to to reclaim features that block their
buildsite, which weren't there when they started moving to it
- Fixed issues with features with 0 metal and 0 energy
- Fixed crashes / desyncs when using area orders with a large radius
- Hold position doesn't imply "don't turn" anymore, and units with small
firing arcs in general behave a lot better in this case.
- Units on hold position now don't get confused by nearby invalid targets
- Smooth ground mesh for better aircraft behaviour (unit tag: useSmoothMesh)
- Wind fixed to stay in between map boundaries
- Momentum isn't conserved anymore in unit-unit collisions

0 = disable; 1 = enable (no terrain); 2 = enable (with terrain - was '1' before)
- Fixed occasional hang when word wrapping text
- S3O transparency is now supported even with AdvUnitShading disabled
Engine / Lua:
