Fix #2:

- Minor fixes to UI of blood altar in singleplayer
- Can now mine blood altar with any pickaxe

Thanks to Pxntxrez for bringing attention to a few of these issues
*Multiplayer fixes to come but none yet*

Hotfix:

Past Updates
-------------------------------------------
Update 0.3, UI Finally!
- Upgrade UI is back! To open it right click on any knife workbench, you'll then be able to upgrade knives to your liking!
- Blood Altars are back! A new ritual was also added that will be the start of ritualistic crafting! Check out the Ritual Book from Vlad for Recipes! (only one for now, please send suggestions in the discord!)
- Skin inventory is back! Talk to Vlad to get some different visuals on your necklace! (In-world visuals to come!)
- Vampire armor set added back, other armors to come but need some more updating.
- Life steal potion and murder potion added back!
- Living enemies have hearts now and may even drop them! Throw them into your blood altar to get some extra blood essence!
- Defense knives are back! Max set to 20 by default but can be changed in the config options.
- Added Luminite Palm and Extra Hand, completing the vanilla accessories adding extra projectiles.
- Nyives will no longer stick to the ground as easily when being shot from the ground.
- Small tweaks to some knives.
- Further fixed movement with bat transform (let me know if it's still wonky with other accessories added)

Update 0.2, Some Much Needed Updates:
- Greatly improved the visuals of all knives
- Fixed healing from getting to the hundreds after playing for a while
- Config reimplimented for changing knife damage, healing amount, and heal projectile spawn chance
- Updated the pillar knives to be more balanced and unique
- Updated Blooming Terror (Plantera drop) to be more balanced and unique
- Updated Hand of the Moonlord to be more unique, still not super happy w/ visuals of it tho so visuals will likely change again
- Completely reworked Umbra and Penumbra to be more useful and fun
- Changed some visuals for material knives and added effects to hardmode material knives (cobalt/palladium and later)
- Sengos forgotten blades reworked
- Rukasu's Bundle o' Tesla Coils reworked and volume annoyance drastically reduced
- Delta buffed O7
- Increased speed of Starfury-type projectiles to make aiming more natural
- Chain knives have higher rate of fire, damage lowered slightly
- Horseman's Blades damage nerfed, increased rate of pumpkin spawning
- Harpy knife damage output nerfed
- Antlion knives slightly nerfed
- Fixed some bugs with Nyives and Horseman's blades tile collisions
- Nerfed the Daedalus Storm Blade's lightning bolts
- Balanced terra knives
- Fixed a few tooltip issues
- Fixed bug where necklace mult didn't apply to healing
- Fixed damage of Harvester's Soul
- Fixed some awkward movement with Bat transform

This is the first update in the progress towards porting from 1.3 to 1.4. A LOT is disabled and currently I'd say about only half of the mod is here, but almost all the weapons are here and functional.
Everything should be pretty much the same except for these two changes:
- Addition of the Delta, Psi, and Theta Knives
- Changes to the visuals of Daedalus Stormblades
