[p]Fixed a bug where using combat abilities would inflict status effects even if target evades or is immune to the damage, and another bug where the trogs weren't surrendering in Ch.4. Using a grapnel will now throw the item to one tile above the hook. Aimed Jab ability now inflicts Crippled status. Also a bunch of other little bug fixes.[/p][p]Just a couple more patches before I start on Ch.6 (for real this time). It's gonna be a while because I need to make all the snow tiles, so it probably won't be out until March.[/p][p][/p][p]EDIT: Also I'm moving back to the city in December and I'm looking for a new day job. So it's gonna be a while until Chapter 6 and voice acting.[/p][p][/p][p]Complete list of changes:[/p][p][/p][p]-Sira Beroni now teaches Mechanics and Analyze Character abilities in Ch.2.[/p][p]-Fixed bug where combat abilities still inflicted status effects even if evaded.[/p][p]-Fixed bug with "if_damage" Boolean (checks damage in current attack or damage script).[/p][p]-Fixed bug where mobiles in sand/shallows weren't being drawn when cam repositions for dialogue windows.[/p][p]-Fixed bug where Cloudspill wouldn't surrender in Trog Caves in Ch.4.[/p][p]-Aimed Jab ability now has a chance to cause Crippled status effect.[/p][p]-You can now set "objPos" command to "default" or "target".[/p][p]-Grapnel is now thrown to tile above hook when used.[/p][p]-Updated all story files and removed temp fixes.[/p]

[p]Finished the Wendigo baddie, and I will upload the new Holiday Havoc challenge maps to the Patreon very soon. Also fixed a couple of bugs (thanks to Macabre again, of course). There was a broken achievement in Ch.3 and the reps "Crimson Died" and "Gorbo Died" were getting erased in Ch.2 scripts. If one of those characters died in your playthrough and you already started Ch.2, you're probably gonna see them again. It has been fixed if you haven't started Ch.2 yet.[/p][p][/p][p]The new Holiday Havoc challenge map is called Howling Hunger, featuring the Wendigo. I'll be using the monster in Ch.6 also.

[p]Fixed a shit ton of bugs, mostly from recent patches. There was a bug with the Crypto gemcrack in Ch.3, tons of dialogue inconsistencies if you resisted enslavement at the start of Ch.3, a glitch preventing Izari Clerics from casting spells, and the entire Auto-Pause menu not working from the main menu. I apologize for fucking shit up so much and not noticing.[/p][p]Also fixed some bugs that have been there from the start, including a problem with saves not appearing in the list if they started with "Chapter", Dread Spiders dropping the wrong organ on death, and a cliff blocking grapnel use in Ch.3. Also added a way to get pirate respect in Ch.3 if they are hostile. Finally, improved a bit of dialogue.
