 ## Fixes
 - Fixed exponentially increasing lag when many hundreds of non-mergeable dropped items occupied the same space. This disproportionately affected SkyBlock servers due to large cactus farms using water to collect items together. 
+
+# 4.23.5
+Released 9th August 2023.
+
+## General
+- Updated translation data to [pmmp/Language 2.19.6](https://github.com/pmmp/Language/releases/tag/2.19.6).
+
+## Fixes
+- Fixed `PluginBase->saveResource()` leaking file resources when the data file already exists in the plugin's data folder. This bug existed since 2014 and was only discovered recently.
+- Fixed coral blocks becoming dead after calling `getDropsForCompatibleTool()` on them.
+- Fixed `BlockDeathEvent->getOldState()` returning a block which is already dead.
