-What's the difference between 0.56b and 0.56c?
As you can see on changelog, there's many hundreds of changes. Sphere still the same as always, but now much more stable, fast, optimized, and supporting new functions and new UO expansions up to Time of Legends (TOL).
-What's the difference between 0.56c and 0.56d?
There's no difference, we just released the final version of 0.56c and started 0.56d development using all current files as it is.
0.56c won't receive more updates and all newest updates now goes to 0.56d builds.
-What's the difference between Nightly and Pre-release builds?
There's no difference, Pre-release builds are just Nightly builds which got renamed when reach the final version.
So if you're already using 0.56c nightlies, you can update it to 0.56c Pre-Release without problems. Or if you prefer, you can jump directly to 0.56d nightlies to continue receiving all the newest changes.
-I'm using an old 0.56b build from years ago. I can update it to 0.56c?
Yes, the coding style is the same, so you can still using your current scripts and save files. But it's highly recommended update the script pack too, otherwise you will have many problems and strange behaviors. This is not an simple copy/paste work (unless you want overwrite your scripts with the default ones), so it will take some hours/days/weeks depending on your server customization.
