-------------------------------

V0.6.04 (February 11, 2025)

New game content (quests/writing/art/etc):

- Added some hints for First Steps into the Fray to state which four side quests contribute toward its own progression

- Added reminder at the lighthouse in Amour Aquatic to return when it is sunset before the meeting with Nyptunia

- Added a random event to point players toward The Seeker's Sorrow

-- This random event triggers when The Last Gardener is completed and at least three days have elapsed since its conclusion. It also requires that The Seeker's Sorrow quest has not yet been discovered.

- Added a goblin warband camp popup dungeon in North Shore for levels 3 and up

Miscellaneous:

- Made significant refactoring to the underlying battle code to make the system more reliable and more modular in the future

-- This should fix some old bugs (like multi-attacks sometimes causing the next battle entity to miss a turn) but has a high chance to introduce new ones. Please report any issues you find!

- Added more information to the combat ability full view for when a combat ability has health leeching (such as the Arachnid Morphling's Vitality Transfer)

- Added base damage modifier to combat ability full view. This informs the player the base damage modifier for the ability, not the existing actual expected damage values that shows below it

- Removed the ~ symbol in front of the meals count when larger when the value is 1,000 or larger since it could be confused as a negative sign rather than the intended "about" sign

- The money display in the HUD now truncates the value shown for brevity's sake, rounding numbers like 12,131 to 12.1k, 123,135 to 123k, 1,812,103 to 1.8m, etc.

-- The precise amount still shows up on the Inventory panel and when interacting with merchants

Bugfixes:

- Weapon rack loot containers should no longer spawn any popup dungeon reward weapons such as the Chicken Wand

- The Bimbonic Plague and Elite Infected status effects should now be removed from any recoverable followers following completion of The Bimbo of My Enemy quest

-- Added a migration script to globally remove these status effects (not just the player party, but all followers transferred out of the party) if the quest is completed

- Recoverable followers should also not keep any combat-only status effects displaying as "0 turns remaining)

- Minor tweak to one of the Dig Site popup dungeon battlemaps

- Fixed being able to re-collect the paint tins, paint brush, etc in The Dollhouse quest

-- These four items should be automatically removed by the migration script if the quest is completed and they are in the party inventory

- Bugfix for Magical Paintbrush (Porcelain Toy Soldier) performing the porcelain villager transformation instead of soldier transformation
