Misc

Enabled very rough IME support for other languages (currently only tested Chinese, Japanese, and French, but it uses your system IME

Added an option to override the time of day in town

Option can be found in gameconfig as usual

Added an information panel on map select that we can put all the useful information text into

Example, we're aware of an issue that may cause that box to clip with long instance names

Added Unequip all Dragon Gems button to the P menu

It looks funny right now, but more buttons will be there later to remove all your Crests/Talismans!

Added an indicator under party members to indicate which buffs they're missing

When you block a player, you will now also block their social gestures
Base class buffs are now black and white to make them easier to identify for new players
All messages from a blocked player are now properly blocked (this now includes party chat)
Added even more server logging to figure out why some game rooms crash rarely

Added the ability for us to make bosses with 50 HP bars
Bar counter on bosses now rolls through values when you clear several bars at a time
Removed PvP lobby AFK autokick
Added a (somewhat experimental) recovery for packet bursting, game should be able to recover from momentary packet loss better and not need a restart (can't really help you right now if you have consistent packet loss though)
Adjusted a situation where if your skill cast gets rejected by the server, it'll now try to be set to the proper cooldown that the server thinks your skill should be at
[Dance of Ecstasy 3] minotaurs (Umbaba) are no longer visible to party
Adjusted server-side projectile rejection behavior to reduce the retrying required by the client to deal with situations where you're firing a projectile right when changing actions serverside (due to latency or lag)
