ORK 3.2.0 is here with new features, changes and fixes!

This update adds improvements to aggression state notifications (i.e. notifying other group/faction members), optional default setups for item collectors, new Unity UI module components and other new features changes and fixes.

This version contains Makinom 2.3.0, adding support for no domain reloading in Unity (i.e. faster playtesting), improves the settings search in the editor, adds optional line of sight checks for interactions and other new features, changes and fixes.
Additionally, displaying UI boxes or HUDs at the position of a game object on-screen can now use world space canvases if the game object they’re displayed for have a ‘Canvas’ attached.
