Hey all 👋, Jungle v1.0.3 has FINALLY been released.

After 114 commits, 90 hours of work, and a month of intense development, I'm pleased to announce the release of Jungle v1.0.3. This update brings a host of new features, critical improvements, and a few notable changes that should enhance your workflow.

---

New Features:

• New Jungle Tree Inspector Look: The inspector now has a fresh appearance, including an added error handler section.

• "OnLateUpdate" Callback to Nodes: Introducing the "OnLateUpdate" callback for improved node handling.
• Helper Utility Classes: New "JungleUtils" and "JungleEditorUtils" classes to streamline your development process.

Improvements:

• Gizmos System Refactor: The entire system has been overhauled for better efficiency.
• Editor Window Refactor: The Jungle Editor window has been completely revamped.
• Inspector Panel Refactor: The Jungle Editor inspector panel has been improved for better usability.
• Cache System Enhancements: Significant performance improvements for both Jungle Node type and icon cache systems.
  • The default icon cache max allocation size is now 100.
  • Disabling the icon cache is no longer an option.

Additionally, numerous bug fixes have been implemented to ensure a smoother experience.

This update goes beyond adding features and fixing bugs. It involved a major overhaul of the core runtime system. Think of it like adding a basement to an already constructed house. This refactor was necessary to move runtime logic off Jungle Trees, making them operate as instances of the original.

The outcome is a significantly faster and more memory-efficient runtime system. With fewer GC allocations and data caching in dictionaries instead of lists, performance has notably improved. This groundwork also paves the way for the forthcoming Multiton Trees in v1.1.0. Soon, you'll be able to run the same tree multiple times simultaneously, enhancing capabilities such as NPC behavior.

Hope you enjoy Jungle v1.0.3!

This is just the beginning for Jungle, and I cannot wait to see how it helps developers create amazing projects.
