0.14.0 Delay

tl;dr: The 0.14.0 release is delayed until the 6th of April for Patrons and then 10th for the public.

I wanted to make a post to let you all know what is going on with 0.14.0. Unfortunately I've had some issues come up and although the release is almost ready, I couldn't get it finished yesterday, and today I haven't been able to get the work in to finish it.

As I'm sure people are aware, there is a lot going on right now, and with colleagues off sick, my day job has required me to work far more than usual, alongside having to help my parents (who are high-risk due to age and existing conditions), it has just just not been possible for me to finish up the release.

I'm sorry—clearly with people self-isolating it is the time when people will most want new content, and I was really hoping to continue unaffected, but that just hasn't been possible.

I'm not expecting this to stop the release for a significant period, but after being sure yesterday I'd be able to get it out today and failing to do so, I don't want to mess people around by continuing to say "it'll be tomorrow", even if I intend to do so given what I currently know. My plan is to release it ASAP, but I'm going to say that it has been delayed until next week (Monday the 6th), with the public release on the 10th. If it is done before then, I'll release it “early”, but I just want to give a hard date I know I can match, and I don't want eat into the Patron early-access window by releasing it publicly normally.

If things get any worse and I don't believe I can deliver for whatever reason at that point, I will put a pause on the Patreon until I can dedicate time to Sculptor again. To be clear: I do not think this is likely to happen, but I can't rule it out at this point (if my parents were to be hospitalised, for example) and I want to have a plan that people know just in case. 

I hope people understand, but I also know this is a hard time for people. If you would like to be refunded for now, please just let me know (send me a message), I will completely understand.

Thank you for being so supportive, and I hope you all stay safe and well during this period.

Edit: I didn't even think of the date when I posted this: I'm afraid this isn't some weird April fools' day joke, just to be clear.
