Fixes
- Bug introduced in v3.5 Beta 1: The host- and client-side Next Round screens had the old problematic player list colour scheme, despite the v3.6.19.7 fix.
- Bug in a feature introduced in v3.6.19.7: The client-side Next Round screen did not show the map reception progress bar.
- Bug in a feature introduced in v3.6.19.17: The Single Step replay key could cause an infinite loop, requiring the "WA.exe" process to be killed externally.
- Interaction between Space Bar, Ninja Rope, and jumping
- If you pressed and held Space to shoot the Ninja Rope while your Worm was standing, walking, or preparing for a jump, and the rope failed to catch, and then your Worm jumped before you released Space, the rope would be fired "automatically" the moment your Worm became jumped and became airborne.
- If pressing or holding Space caused your Worm to shoot the Ninja Rope while preparing for a jump (or the moment it jumped and became airborne, as described above), and your Worm became airborne before you released Space, then a second pressing of Space would be ignored; an extra press would be required to detach the initial rope.

- Bug in a feature introduced in v3.6.19.7: Pressing Shift during an instant replay affected speed in a buggy way. Now, the same speed-control keys used during a playback replay are supported during an instant replay.
- Fixes affecting game logic
- The v3.6.19.17 fix: "Weapons can now be selected while your worm is reshooting the Ninja Rope." introduced a glitch: if you made your worm shoot a starter rope from mid-air, and attempted to select a weapon before the rope caught, the default would be selected instead. It was not intended that selection be possible during the starter rope shot.
