Hello Spiritographers!

For some users, the train customization and speed parameters were still not saving properly, so this hotfix aims at solving these issues for good. Included a couple more fixes along the way.

• Fixed an issue with train customization sometimes not initializing properly, preventing users from keeping their changes in the new Train location.
• Fixed an issue with the Train sometimes being completely stopped whenever exiting customization view.
• Thunder clouds are now less dark in coast, forest, and fields background in the Train.
  
• Added some birds to Sky and Coast backgrounds in Train.
  
• Two-tone sleeve hoodie is now color customizable
  
• Adjusted some exterior seating of train to prevent clipping with Spirits
  
• Fixed some Kitchen elements with metal (such as oven) being overly dark

  If you've been affected by this, please take a look at this guide to restore your save files to a previous day (If you wish to restore spent Spirit Credits on Train items.)
