Sandrock Co-Op mode got a makeover, so it's less 'unexpected error' and more 'smooth operator!'

And guess what? Gamestop crowned us one of the best-reviewed Co-Op games of 2023! We'd like to thank our keyboards, controllers, and that one lucky dice we found in the dev room. And can't wait to share this good news with you all!

Thanks for keeping us in the loop! Here is the changelist:

Resolved various quest circle triggers, addressing progress-halting problems in quests like 'Starship Enterprising', 'Leak and Destroy', 'Mystical Investigations', etc.
Resolved error prompts occurring when adding fertilizer in the greenhouse.
Fixed the interaction glitch with Heidi during the Summit period.
Fixed the issue where Andy and Alo couldn't be asked to follow.
