1.22.3 - Maintenance patch

Dear Extraordinary Survivalists
v1.22.3, a stable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager.

[Edit:] 1.22.3 Mac builds for older Intel CPUs are currently unavailable - but Mac builds for Apple Silicon (for all recent Macs) are now a thing!

Game updates

• Feature: Build a native Apple Silicon version of the game for Mac OS. Should work on any Mac built since 2022, including M1, M2, M3 etc and recent Macbooks. This resolves a large number of issues previously running the Mac Intel build on Apple Silicon and improves performance significantly
