The latest source code contains some fixes that weren't implemented to the latest release build yet, some huge jumps in changes are mostly related to co-op and some experimental features, it also includes experimental features on sending data from a server to player written in Python (serverevents folder) the purpose of that experimental feature was to gather amount of current players in both server (and over-all players playing mod), keep in mind that this doesn't infringe any rights other than a simple 0-1 logic check to see how many players are online, send them message during their single player campaign to inform them of any upcoming co-op/multiplayer events.
