Fixes
4 bugs fixed
- Zombies and spiders now hurt you in all instances (previously could only hurt the player if they were 1 block above their location).
- Client-sided slime spawn on multiplayer has been fixed.
- Arm no longer swings when player cannot place a block.
- Opening and closing the inventory quickly while swinging no longer removes the character 'swinging' animation, which previously made destroying blocks faster (Multiplayer only).
