Patch v2.0.1e in Public Beta!

NOTE: Game saves ARE backward compatible with v2.0.1d, so if you switch back to that version, you can continue playing any saves made in this beta. Multiplayer games are also backward-compatible with the last patch (v2.0.1d), so you can play with those who have that version.

BUGS FIXED:

• Pronghorn late summer fawns float very high in water when swimming.

• Pups only grin very briefly when doing Grin emote.
