Other fixes and improvements
Numerous performance and stability issues were fixed with build 1126182, including several that could cause the game to crash under certain conditions. There was also a display fix pertaining to aspect ratio when using an ultrawide monitor.
Broom flying is also much improved with fixes preventing players getting stuck while mounting a broom and not being able to land in specific spots in the game world.
