Bug Fixes

- Caves Minimap is now properly cleared when a player dies in Wilderness mode.
Please note that A New Reign content will now be automatically retrofitted into existing Worlds, but we cannot guarantee that this will be exactly the same as using a new Save Slot to generate a new World. In addition, saved Minimaps in existing Worlds will be reset, just this one time, in order to switch to the new networked Minimap data.
