Automobilista 2 V1.5.5.6 is Now Live

Not quite done yet: a couple of errors with the new dynamic AI corridor function slipped out with v1.5.5.5 making useable roads by the AI a little tighter and thus overtaking by them a little harder than it should be - rectifying that along with some other improvements to AI, physics, FFB and more have called for another update, with AMS2 now being brought up to v1.5.5.6.
