If you’re not into reading patch notes, the only thing you really need to be aware of in this build is that the palm tree mechanics are different. You cannot climb palm trees in this build, requiring you to either chop it down for coconuts or throw something at the coconuts to knock them down (Don't forget you can left click while dragging an item to throw it forward!)
