Incremental Caching
Previously ACT would cache calculated values as long as nothing was added to a specific part. But ongoing complex encounters would often require recalculation and requesting the data often would lead to high CPU usage. ACT will now create an incremental cache of base level calculations to reduce the amount of work required for each successive request for data. This will not be a huge difference, but it is at least measurable. You may mostly disable the newer method of caching by using the option in the Miscellaneous settings page of the Options tab.

Multiple Running Copies
ACT will now warn if it detects another copy of ACT running. You may skip the check by adding -skipmutex to the commandline parameters. You may block new instances by adding -onlyone; not compatible with -skipmutex. If you wish for the warning to stay consistent, either close the new instance and reuse the older instance or close all instances and restart ACT. Continuing with the new copy that made the warning is not advised as future copies will not detect that one.

Miscellaneous
Fewer colors are hard-coded and instead use system defined colors. ACT will bypass using internal webbrowser controls in WINE since they do not render at all and may cause problems. The Relative Time column will now discard unused decimal point places. The Death Report will now use damage suffixes like the main tab graphs. Some misc window size fixes for changes after Windows 11. Some new ODBC hacks. Fixed some default SQL export variables. The Lookup By Combatant window now gracefully handles cells that cause errors. Fixed restarts of the Custom Trigger engine.
