Hello, builder community!

Check out the full list:

• Implemented new post-processing to improve the game's overall lighting.

• Resolved an issue with the command bar displaying incorrectly when switching from a diorama under construction (base game) to an already completed DLC.

• Decreased the transparency of the placement meshes (gray and white) for better visibility of the pieces.

• Adjusted the default mouse wheel sensitivity for a smoother zoom in/out experience.

• Modified the system so that the main menu will always return to "Day" mode when exiting a diorama.
