I've read what the community has to say about the current room/map system Lone Fungus has and it seems the community is quite split on how it should be. So my solution was to make the map system toggleable on the Explorer, Normal and Custom difficulties. That means those who like that the map updates at Shrines can play like they used to and those who want instant map updating on Normal can turn it on!

In hindsight I wish I had put the toggle inside of the settings menu, I'll probably move it there at some point.

With this also comes tons of other smaller and bigger changes, the bigger change is that you can copy your savefiles (except Nightmare saves) and also lower the difficulty of chosen savefiles!

I've tested the feature extensively and it should be without issues but since it's a new feature either backup your saves manually in the games folder or use the new copy-save feature and lower the difficulty of your copy if that's what you are planning on doing. Just to be on the safe side.

Thanks everyone for giving feedback and helping me make this game better, more to come :)!
