- Export now correctly exports override Snippets.
- Fixed bug where Gauge state configurations would not save settings correctly when not created via a Snippet.

- Fixed issue where non decimal values would not display leading zeros.
- Fixed issue where FlightSimIOServer would lock up when running Detective and the flight sim was shutdown.
- Fixed issue where changing aircraft would not load aircraft specific Bespoke Start Event, but keep the one from a previous aircraft.
- Fixed bug where data driven lit components were not updating their lit states.
- Added IAS_MACH_INTEGER_BLANK Display Action that will always display speed as an integer even in Mach mode.
- Lua console window now closes on Windows 11.

- Lua setsvar and getsvar commands now work correctly regardless of the variable syntax used.
- Editing a Set= Task now correctly tracks and restores previously variables and applied filters.
- Fixed issue with 2 way white long switch not being referenced in modules that were using it, they were referencing an old copy of it.
- Android client now installs only 1 icon.
- Import function thread owner error fixed for some import situations.
- Fixed various minor bugs/issues.
