Mystwood Manor [v0.8.2b]

v0.8.2b
For this update, I’ve added new scenes for Hana, and Nora Walsh reworked all the tarot cards and
fixed several bugs. Unfortunately, the tarot cards took way longer than I anticipated, so this update
will not have as many new scenes as usual.
To make up for this, next month will be a big content update.
Note: Existing saves can be copied over by moving the profiles folder from the previous version to
this one.
All the best,
Faerin

  Note: This will show up once more for existing saves, as I needed to add new flag for this.

• Added 1 new guest event for Miguel.
• Added 5 new guest events for Jim.

Gameplay/UI
• Improved the auto plan function. It should be a lot more efficient now. Note: There are still some variables (like level and energy) that are not taken into account, so manual planning will always be the optimal choice.
• Added a statistics screen: This can be accessed through the menu and will show detailed gameplay information (note: this will start counting from now on, so it won’t be accurate for previous savegames).
• Added a new item that unlocks after renovating the office (for now it can be found in the attic, like all the other items).

• Expanded the staff level tutorial to explain about trait points.
