Dear Extraordinary Survivalists
v1.18.0-rc.6, a release candidate, can now be downloaded through the account manager (section "Other Goodies").
More bugs fixed. Stable release very Soon™
This release includes some optimizations to reduce lag spikes in some areas of the game, which we'd like to test before stable. Also 1.18 had a major impacting on Vintagehosting, due to another performance issue which should be addressed with this one.

Game updates
- Tweak: (Experimental) Trader caravans can now generate in slightly more places (more tolerant towards non-flat terrain) - this is reverted in v1.18.0-rc.7, it tended to put wheels into hillsides
- Tweak: Mitigated a few sources of lag spikes on client and server (Technical info: Reduced lock contention, removed some unnecessary bits of code)
- Api Tweak: Added guid field to Waypoints
- Api Fixed: Renamed container property "transitionSpeedMulByType" to simply "transitionSpeedMul" which should make it work as intended
