Changelog

v1.5.2 — Persistent ignores hotfix

• IMPORTANT: Please double check your blocked users list for unexpected players. If you ignored a friend request from a Steam user they may have been mistakenly added to the Blocked Users list and muted in-game due to a misunderstanding on our part… Steam considers ignored friend invites the same as 'ignoring' the player.
• %AppData%\godot\app_userdata\webfishing_2_newver\ignores.sav
