Hullo; contrary to unkind opinion, I'm still alive. Proof: [url=https://weatherfactory.biz/skeleton-songs/][img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//31397842/866f984bae8d9a0a652d72dcebdc5f4bbf7c638b.png[/img] [/url] Any developer knows how important it is to make sure your game is stable going into a major sale, and not to patch it the night before. I'm not any developer, so I dropped [i]two [/i] updates yesterday. Fortunately they don't appear to have broken anything important, and they have made some much-requested changes to the card placement mechanism. Here are the patch notes for both VIOLET and WUTHERING: [list] [*] Fix: You no longer need to restart the game to restore CONTINUE to the menu [*] Fix: $remove command no longer breaks mods [*] Fix: correctly handling extends as well as inheritance in older mods [*] Fix: Card ghost no longer disappears when card is removed from an additional slot [*] MAJOR CARD PLACEMENT CHANGE: the placement position now corrects for the camera. This means the card ghost goes much closer to the card. Many thanks to Genroa, Dylan and others who managed to get this point across to me. [*] A couple of other minor placement tweaks [*] Card grid no longer assumes a gap between rows. This may require some fiddling with big existing layouts, sorry, but the feedback over time was clear here. [*] Slightly better Mansus exit experience [*] Fixed hilarious bug with multi-select. (yes you can shift-drag to multi-select cards, semi-hidden feature) [/list] This was the hilarious multi-select bug. I slightly regret fixing it, but my support email queue won't.

The next two updates, whenever they arrive, will be YERMA and ZAIDE but after that I'll need another update name theme. Suggestions welcome, keepitclassyladiesandgents. Anyway in the meantime I really am going back to focus on BOOK OF HOURS now, at least if real life will leave me alone for ten minutes. Lottie will chide me for not giving you a wishlist link, so here it is.

Some of them were bits like the Ghoul memories and Dancer marks, so it took quite a while for our Japanese-speaking players to realise it wasn't just me being weird. Clocq put painstaking work into fixing it. [b]Chelnoque,[/b] a long-time modding stalwart who I asked to quote me for a wishlist of the most urgently requested modding framework upgrades - this is where the modding upgrade in TARTUFFE came from. So yes, I am investing actual money in third-party contributions to the modding framework, but Chelnoque then one-upped me by donating his fee to charity. Well done everyone, I guess. Those who've been keeping track of our updates will already know what this picture is, but it's probably already destined to sell out out so I am literally not going to make it a link. I just like the picture. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//31397842/2e18b0b45a7b63737de0a5df7586520389ee294a.png[/img]
