Nuku smoothly says, "* Credits that is, not actual vials."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Issues with Diya's defeat not completing the quest fixed. Those who still have the quest in their quest log can talk to Diya outside of his cottage to get the quest completion checked off. Also, Diya can now take you to the dojo again through dialogue prompts."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "No longer required to have the Weapon Master badge in order to get Diya to take you to the Dojo to get the very same required badge. That was silly."

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "+help Skills and Proficiences given a minor update to clarify and remove an erroneous statement at the end."

Nuku smoothly says, "Raising proficiencies past their training level is no longer token free."

eWrecked Glitch throatily barks, "+coyote and +adept codes have been merged in the background. This shouldn't really change anything in the foreground, overall. Also, minor fixes made to the code, changing how messages should display, relying on the same 'infect' code that exists in the shift command and all other commands that deal with shifting. This should fix errors in stringparsing in transformation messages used by these two commands."

Judgment Alceris predicts, "Having your mass manipulated now applies its effects even if you're not currently carrying a Nanite Mass Manipulator. It was pretty useless for Coyotes before."

Nuku smoothly says, "Top Tier merit removed. Your points are already refunded, enjoy!"

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "Rejoice. We've decided to remove the TopTier flag from all recipes. Crafting just got a lil' simpler."

Nuku smoothly says, "Top Tier Crafts returned. If you had it before, you still have it."

eWrecked Glitch throatily barks, "Violence flag re-established into wi as vio."

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "removed a stray power upgrade on mechanical drones for a power they no longer have."

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "Flurry combat skill removed from Slasher Bot, since that got removed from the game ages ago."

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "( Also since none of their attacks are repeats )"

Nuku smoothly says, "Gave birth in the future? This will now fix itself, hirrah!"

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "Slasher Bot has been given some love, since it was lagging behind. Full stats they get now:"

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "/Minions/SlasherDrone#/1:Damage:1"

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "/Minions/SlasherDrone#/2:Sacrificial Fury:2"

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "/Minions/SlasherDrone#/3:Speed:2"

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "Penetration:2, Bleeding:3, Reactive:2, Controlled Burst:3"

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "Auto Cleave with a Damage of 5, Auto Slash with a damage of 5, Robotic Systems giving them 10 damagebuff, 1 attack, and 10 accuracy"

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "This is a test message, please ignore."

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "This is another test message, please ignore."

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "Adept command now *correctly* checks if you're actually, y'know. An adept."

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "Adept bodypart shifting now correctly requires the Carnal Equalizer instead of the Spatial Recalculator"

eWrecked Glitch uwu's, "Several fixes made to the +coyote command, giving it at least soem functionality. Please report any bugs you notice as it's an ongoing process to fix!"

Mostly Retired Fauna wantonly purrs, "Selective Breeder no longer crashes the impreg function if you don't have every single prop it's looking for set."
