== Trivia ==
When releasing the test branch for 0.6.0, the devs accidentally published a build to the test branch about half an hour too early. They quickly removed it, and published a slightly different build later, with a tweet confirming that it was for real this time. <ref>https://twitter.com/ScrapMechanic/status/1523716630454620160</ref>
