Changelog/2023/January 13

Hey everyone,
Today we are opening up the Alpha network to test some performance improvements to the game as well as some layout changes to the SkyBlock Menu.
We know there might not be as many visual changes in this Alpha, but we would greatly appreciate many players attempting to play many different areas of the game for our testing.
==SkyBlock Menu Changes==
We have made some changes to the layout of the SkyBlock Menu to improve clarity and fix over-cluttering. We want to gauge the communities feedback on these changes.

==Performance Improvements==
Along with the new menu, we also are testing a lot of backend changes to the game relating to Profile Loading, NPCs and Zones. If you encounter an issue where your profile loads incorrectly or an NPC or Zone doesn't work properly, please report it!
===Profile Loading and Timeout Issues===
We have identified an issue that is causing many large or late game profiles to be kicked from the game or timeout when attempting to switch islands or join SkyBlock. We have made some backend changes to the profile system which we hope will make improvements towards fixing this issue. If you are facing this issue on the server, we would like to invite you to join the Alpha to see if this issue still persists.
If you encounter any issues - small, major or critical, please report them here and make sure you select alpha.hypixel.net!
Thank you!
