ArchaeologyKit 2.0.4b, Beta Prelease
Added 2022-07-23 03:37:24 +0000 UTC
This update contains new relics, more tutorial lessons, additional relic features and bug fixes.
The Yacothian Armor and the Komorebi Scroll are now both relics. If you already have these in your inventory, they will just 'become' magic relics with this update.
You will need to identify them with Sim Lore skill in order to use them, like any other relic. If you'd like to just try them out, you can shift-click on them, and choose Identified in the Relic State cheat menu.

You can wear the armor, it glows, and has a number of useful effects. If I'm going to do magic armor, it's going to be proper magic armor. lol.
The new Komorebi Mountain Scroll relic is based on an old Sims 2 mod for Vacations I remember using with a little extra mythology mixed in. It is also super handy when going after the other Komorebi relic, which is much harder to get.
They are going to come up far more commonly than the other relics right now, since they are still distributed as if they are artifacts, so you might be able to find them in more than one region. I may or may not pin them down to a single area like the others. Play testing will help me decide that.
I also fleshed out the three tutorial sections that were there before, but may still add more. Converting each tutorial image takes a couple of steps, so it's a bit of a pain, but hopefully it helps.
Also added a few more features and effects to some of the relics.
I think we're getting close to the public release of this. I should probably wait until after the patch next week breaks everything, lol. (I joke, but there is a big patch expected next week before High School is released).
As always, let me know what you think and/or if you run into any issues with the mod!
