Version 2.0.0 Released

note

The backend didn't change except for the version number; we've updated the zip regardless.

ARedwoodCharacter has been replaced with URedwoodCharacterComponent

This breaking change changes how player character data is set up. Long story short, to support pawns that inherit from APawn instead of ACharacter, the data persistence happens in an Actor Component instead of an Actor. This supports using Redwood with the UE Mover plugin, the marketplace GMCv2 plugin, and other scenarios that don't use UCharacterMovementComponent.
