I just noticed a change in the new 4th printing of the Core Rulebook that isn't mentioned in the errata listing on the FAQ page: produce flame was reworded to list the effects as success degree lines, not in the corpus of the spell description:

Core Rulebook, 3rd printing wrote:
A small ball of flame appears in the palm of your hand, and you lash out with it either in melee or at range. Make a spell attack roll against your target’s AC. This is normally a ranged attack, but you can also make a melee attack against a creature in your unarmed reach. On a success, you deal 1d4 fire damage plus your spellcasting ability modifier. On a critical success, the target takes double damage and 1d4 persistent fire damage.

Critical Success The target takes double damage and 1d4 persistent fire damage.
Success The target takes full damage.

It doesn't change anything, but makes the spell formatting more consistent.

Did anyone notice any other stealth changes?
