Stabler De-Jank and Game Juice Update (1.17.3)

[Tyron]

Dear Extraordinary Survivalists
v1.17.3, a stable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager.

Time for another bugfix release. Version 1.17 seems to be looking pretty good by now. Possibly the last or 2nd last release for 1.17.x \o/

At first, I thought iCue (Corsair mouse software) was causing severe issues with this build. Performance tanked hard. Turned out it was a Windows 11 update that borked everything. A reinstall has shown that I am getting about 15FPS more than I did before! I don't know if my drivers are just working better or if something was done to the 1.17.x builds, but it runs like liquid butter and I'm pleased!

Thanks always for all of the awesome work, the game is amazing! Can't wait to see what's ahead!

Some of the primary updates were performance based.  Your better performance is expected.
