Known issues
RPC cache issues.. like always.
I have no idea how to fix these so I'm going to ignore them for now, what matters is that it's working.
* : As long as the server doesn't hang chat should work normally, however.. because of the RPC cache error spamming chat WILL crash/hang the server or the players so expect the chat to suddenly go silent for no reason if someone keeps spamming chat or a function that creates that error.
