I think I'm making these Demo updates too detailed. Fixed a lot of abilities like Economics, Naturalism, Mining, Smithing (not Blacksmith anymore because you can work with all metals). Item prices are now modified by condition, faction respect, and the Economics ability (boosted by Education skill).

Got rid of the Alchemist class and combined it with Scholar, then added an extra ability to all the other classes. So now all the other classes are a bit more powerful. As of right now, the Streetwise and Linguistics abilities do nothing. On the next update, Streetwise will let you gather information in towns and contact the black market at any time (in town). Also, I need to make more Bluffing dialogue options and books to translate with Linguistics. So the Merchant and Scholar are still underpowered classes, but they are getting there.

Also: a few more updates to character creation, fixed some minor bugs, changed Lurkwood to Tuskwood so I'm not ripping off the Forgotten Realms setting, and main player sex is now a reputation (not a script variable) so that it can be transferred when you import your party into another story.



Complete list of changes:

-Fixed shopping discounts, new script discount parameter, implemented Economics ability.
-Main 5 party members are automatically selected after moving to a new map.
-Newly-spawned mobiles now start with max Health and Meta, healed all mobs in story.
-Changed player sex to a reputation, not a variable (to be exported with party to other stories).
-Added new script command: "pickParty" to pick a party member (1 to 5), beds now heal whole party.
-Fixed bug from last patch where you can use/get objects from 2 paces away (now it's only talking).
-Changed Lurkwood name to Tuskwood (Lurkwood is a place in the Forgotten Realms setting).
-Changed Blacksmith ability to "Smithing" (all kinds of metals and ore).
-Finished the Mining ability and added a few ore veins to the world.
-Outlined mouse cursor in yellow to make it more visible.
-Added more abilities at trainers and training dialogue.
-Combined Alchemist and Scholar into one class.
-Character creation now displays class skills.
-Favius will now only talk to the main player.
-Updated Player's Manual and Builder's Manual.

​Sorry. I got fucked up on drugs and alcohol and prevented Ch. 7 from being completed on the last update. I take full responsibility and will henceforth commit seppuku on myself. Fixed now.​

Updated the HUD. Combined use and talk into one command (since they were the same thing), and added a Stop command (which for some reason I didn't have before). New sound effects, dialogue, updated abilities, and more.

-Crafting arrows with Woodcraft ability now requires feathers (from dead birds).
-Implemented "Examine Environment" option for the Naturalism ability.
-Militia Elite now block player from leaving before speaking to Ralo.

Mainly fixed the problem where "smooth" gamespeed would call the map script twice as often and cut the day/night cycle in half (and fuck up the Beneath the Ruins Tesla fence timers).

SOURCE CODE:
-Fixed problem where "smooth" setting would run map script and AI scripts twice as often (day/night cycle, etc.).
-Included hi specs warning on "smooth" game speed setting.

SCRIPTS:
-Killing Mr. Mungo or Pluto before Ch. 9 now fails main objective and disables saving.
-(PANAMA) Fixed bug where you could get trapped on Isla Darien if you row back to it in Ch. 1 after helping Kalfu Tribe.

More stitches, my bitches, and a major update that lets you play at 60 FPS with normal game speed. I had to change a lot of integer variables to floats, but hopefully it's all working. Go to Settings, then Gameplay, then set Game Speed to "Smooth". Remember, all settings are saved with your character, so save your game after you change the settings.

Also, there are some minor fixes with error messages that didn't really affect the game. Please let me know if there are any problems with the "Smooth" option (it's only for hi-performance computers, so it's not the default setting yet).

Complete list of fixes:

SOURCE CODE:
-Included new game speed option in Settings, "smooth", to run at 60 FPS with normal game speed.
-Removed Brigand Exclusive.exe from game folder (no longer works with new text plugin).

SCRIPTS:
-Fixed error message in Parasitic Touch script if diseasing target after killing them.
-Medkit Mastery ability target type is now set to "none" (passive ability for clarification).
-Corrected command for ghoul refugess from "aifaction" to just "faction" (confused with new Warlord Scripting Language).
-Updated Escape the Polyphonic objective description to give clue to player about saving the game on the cell bed.

RESOURCES:
-Updated Player's Manual: "Demon Friend" is now "Ally of Chaos".
