Stun state on pigs so that you don't get absolutely pummelled if caught in a tight space. More invincibility frames after being hit. Laser charging feedback so you can see who is shooting at you and when they will fire Ability system bug fixes (i.e. fixed parasol sometimes requiring two button presses to activate if called after a roll etc.)
