I already regretted that I rushed and transferred my project to 5.6. It’s good that I didn’t have time to do too much. I went back to 5.5. I’ll wait for 5.6 patches, because the version itself is not bad and lumen have increased by 30% in performance for me, but for now this version is not stable

Same here, it’s ‘funny’ when you update from 5.4.4 to 5.6 to use Slot as Stack Box Slot but in other hand the localization stops working…
