Changes

General

Resource pack

  • uniform font has been updated to use Unifont 15.0.03.
    • During the updates of Unifont, some CJK unified ideographs in Plane 2 were added to the basic Unifont font files for coverage of the General Standard Chinese Characters set, and some in Plane 3, notably the character biang from Biangbiang noodles.
    • Updated full width punctuations and symbols in the range U+FF00 to U+FFEF so they no longer appear stretched.
