Fixes 13

• Performance was improved in several ways: Greydwarf Eye is optimised, smoke rendering is faster and looks better, framerates should be steadier around many buildings, and the game should run a bit smoother overall.
• Unity was updated to version 2022.3.50.
• Fixed input loss that occurred at lower framerates.
• Fixed the slope-knockback bug that could happen when hitting enemies with some attacks on a steep slope.
• The join code is now displayed even if the menu was opened while a new world was being generated.
• Trollstav and Staff of the Wild no longer mention "Dead Raiser" when you reach max summon capacity, and some old hardcoded strings are now properly localised.
• Fixed a visual bug with the Asksvin Rug and Straw, and the Black Marble Bench now shows the correct text when hovered.
• Xbox: fixed a crash when blocking or unblocking a player and leaving the player list too quickly, fixed being unable to join another online game after suspending and resuming, and fixed an endless "logging in to backend service" screen after deleting a playfab account and losing internet.
• PC: the resolution dropdown can be scrolled with a gamepad, the framerate slider speeds up when held with a gamepad, chat and NPC text now clamp correctly to screen borders at resolutions other than 1080p, and the resolution confirmation popup shows up after switching settings tabs.
• PC: local IP addresses are now filtered out when searching for online servers.
• Linux: the main audio device should no longer swap on launch, and keys without a QWERTY counterpart can now be bound.
• Mac: BepInEx works again on Steam versions, and dedicated servers save to the correct location when no ApplicationSupport folder exists.
• Mac: dragging the window no longer triggers left clicks, the Valheim cursor returns after the mouse leaves the window, forward and back mouse buttons are no longer read as middle click, the Steam overlay opens via shortcut, and Valheim can be downloaded from the App Store even with a Steam install present.
