Fixed in https://github.com/NotRexed/Hookshot/releases/tag/faster-builds: compile-retry used too few compilers at once on 16 GB PCs (1-2), so builds took hours. It's back to as many as before (one per 2 GB of free memory, at least 4); a compiler that runs out of memory is still retried alone. Run HookshotBuilder.exe again (or accept the game's update offer, ~3 MB) and build again. Already compiled files are reused.

Fixed in release faster-builds and later: the builder uses one compiler per CPU thread again, as many as the free memory holds (a compile that runs out of memory is retried alone instead). An update rebuild only compiles what changed (about 3 minutes here). HOOKSHOT_JOBS still picks the number yourself. Please update from https://github.com/NotRexed/Hookshot/releases/latest.
