=== Beta 22.93===
=== EA 23.61 ===
<big>'''10/23 2024'''</big>
<big>'''12/19 2024'''</big>
This update is a consolidation of Nightly builds 23.56, 23.57, 23.58, 23.59 and 23.60.


[Additions and Changes]
Balance adjustments are still pending, but the stable version will be released to deliver "★Jure's Gift" by Christmas. Please look forward to it as a Christmas treat. (Mainly a flavor gift with no impact on game balance.)
* When placing a Solar Lamp, tiles already exposed to sunlight will now be highlighted.
* Updated the FAQ in the in-game help.
* Adjusted the power generation and consumption for certain items slightly.
* Added genes and a gene synthesizer. DNA category has been added to items. (Currently, they are just items; their functions are not implemented yet.

* Right-clicking on milk in the inventory now sets the action to "Hold."
* When an NPC hatches from a fertilized egg, it will now be granted the Baby feat at Lv2 (Lv3 if hatched from an incubator).

The maximum growth is now dependent on the training skill (this may change to another skill in the future).

<big>'''Hotfix 2'''</big>

=== Beta 22.89===
<big>'''10/20 2024'''</big>

* Fixed an issue where properties with a value of 0 would sometimes be displayed for certain items.
* Various other minor fixes and adjustments.
 
[Notes]

[Notes]
[Notes]
* Currently, residents can still make purchases even while placed on devices like the electric chair. Additionally, tasks that increase management skills will still be affected, even if the resident is on such devices (as changes to management skills have significant impact).
* The word filter, when configured, functions as a whitelist for the targeted category. If a modifier is applied, it works as a blacklist instead.

* While bosses and other characters seem to destroy walls when confused or blinded, this will be left as a flavor feature unless it becomes a problem.
* Added a "Kickstarter-Related" section to the "Development Corner." A link to the "Last Wish Correction Form" has been included.
* Regarding the text wrapping in conversation balloons, manual wrap points are being set. If you come across any long texts that could benefit from further wrapping, reporting them would be appreciated.
 
=== Beta 22.84===
<big>'''10/13 2024'''</big>
 
With this update, the PC’s hair color displayed on the loading screen will temporarily reset to white (this does not affect the actual hair color).


[Additions and Changes]
[Additions and Changes]
* Movement cost is now applied to traps during route exploration. When using auto-movement, the PC and companions will avoid visible traps. (Since there are many other methods of movement that don’t use route exploration, this may only be noticeable during long-distance travel.)
* Added and updated the contents of Last Wishes.
* A certain amount of random variation has been added to the maximum map size in randomly generated dungeons.
* Updated the credits.
* Technical books and blueprints can now stack.
* Added content for in-game monuments.
* Even if an item is marked as important, some actions like enhancement or invoice payments can still be processed.
* The list displayed by the "Last Wish" console command now shows IDs instead of names (both IDs and names can still be used for searches).
* When splashing water on a burning creature, it will no longer be avoided regardless of hostile relations, and they will even thank you.
* Added backer reward wallpapers (same screen as the reward code input).
* A "do not chase targets" option has been added to auto-combat behavior.
* Added new monsters.
* The frequency of NPC dialogue when skill levels increase has been adjusted.
* The Yeek Cave is now open (no bosses yet).
* Portraits for Miral and Garok have been added.
* Improved Fog of War.
* Vending machines and similar devices will no longer display the quantity of items inside (previously, 1 item from the merchant's inventory was always displayed).
* Changed the timing for the hotbar toggle tutorial to appear when an item is placed on the hotbar.
* The investment level of Loytel Mart will no longer be affected by the development level of the base. Instead, a modification level has been introduced, where the equivalent of the investment level increases as the modification level rises.
* Items like the War Horn and Covenant Stone can no longer be obtained if the backpack has no space. Additionally, these items can no longer be "placed" via the PC's middle-click action.
* An additional stage has been added to Loytel’s debt repayment quest progression.
* Some of Miral and Garok’s exchange items have been moved to Loytel Mart’s bargain items.
* Several non-human portraits have been added. Additionally, a neutral tag “n” has been added to portrait file names.
* The quantity of small medals obtainable from boss chests and similar sources has been adjusted (making them rarer). Small medals are intended to be a currency that does not inflate over time and can be obtained at a steady rate throughout the playtime, so this adjustment has been made.
* Strong enemies will now break through walls to charge at you.


[Fixes]
[Fixes]
* Fixed an issue where the PC’s hair color might not display correctly on the loading screen.
* Fixed a glitch in the rendering of front walls in rooms at map edges.

[Notes]
[Notes]
* Version 83 was skipped due to translation issues. (Currently, the internal system requires a version change when updating translations.)
* In the "Last Wish" console command, any Last Wishes displayed as valid:False have errors in their input and are not implemented in the game. Please use the "Last Wish Correction Form" at the bottom of the "Development Corner" on the official site for corrections.
* In towns where power is placed outdoors, power outages are expected during bad weather.
* Thank you for the feedback on Loytel’s rewards. The quest itself and its rewards are designed with the intention of sinking excess money players may have. The rewards are meant to be convenient but not necessary, and the value relative to the amount paid might feel a bit ambiguous. For the final stage (100 million repayment), the reward may simply be something commemorative or an achievement.


<big>'''Hotfix'''</big>
=== EA 23.51 (Nightly)===
* Fixed missing translations in the English version for the dialogue in Loytel's debt repayment quest.
<big>'''12/7 2024'''</big>
* Creatures capable of destroying walls will no longer do so when fleeing, etc.
* When possessing the Mana Body feat, falling damage upon tripping is now calculated based on maximum MP.
* Policies will no longer be canceled when management power fluctuates and becomes insufficient (since canceling policies is inconvenient; some form of penalty is planned to be introduced).

* Fixed an issue where an error could occur when loading a user map if certain items were placed.


=== Beta 22.83===

* Even in shops where normal items cannot be sold (such as small medal exchanges), it will now be possible to sell back purchased or exchanged items.
* Loan repayment for Loytel is now available (up to a certain point). This debt repayment quest is optional, and whether to progress it or not is up to the player. The reward received at the final stage where faith can be pledged will be further enhanced in future updates.
* Replaced the graphics for luxurious treasure chests and small lottery boxes.


[Fixes]

<big>'''10/5 2024'''</big>
<big>'''12/6 2024'''</big>


[Additions and Changes]
[Additions and Changes]
* Temporarily disabled the function that forced crops with different enhancement levels to be grouped together during automatic farming (experimental. This function was originally introduced because, at the time, there were no large-capacity containers, and crop enhancement levels were synchronized with the seed enhancement levels, causing crops to scatter in large quantities).
* Investments can now only be made in PC bases or towns.
* Reduced the range of random variation in the amount of Eco-Po obtained.
* Status ailments for the opponent, PC, and PC’s allies are now cured at the end of sparring sessions.
* When performing a text search in Help, the search terms are now highlighted on the page you jump to.
* Fullness will no longer reset upon death if fullness is above a certain threshold.
* Added a background image for quiver containers.
* Keypad Enter is now supported for confirmations, such as quantity adjustments and detector keywords.
* When accessing containers that occupy multiple tiles (such as wagons) during auto-sorting, all accessible tiles are now path-searched and checked.
* Designated important food items will no longer be consumed automatically.
* Guild trainers will no longer provide skill training unless you're a member of the guild (previously, they would still teach skills, albeit at a higher cost than when in the guild).
* Added the racial feat "From the Northern Lands" to Norland, along with new starting skills.
* Beehives now have quality traits based on enhancement levels.
* Added the racial feat "Rare Breed" to Roran and merfolk. (The effect on genetic compatibility reduces the required gene slots for genes needing two or more slots by one.)
* The probability of characters speaking in a samurai-like tone has been drastically reduced (Japanese version only).
* Feats "Fast Learner" and "Rare Breed" are now recessive traits and cannot be removed.
* Forced labor machines will no longer function if there are multiple on the same tile. Additionally, only residents can be selected.
* Tooltips now display the gene slot cost for genes that consume one slot (genes that consume no slots are excluded).
* Adjusted the weight, images, and names of treasure chests.
* Assigned jobs and hobbies to Miral and Garok.
* Changed the name of boss chests (chests dropped by bosses or found in treasure hunts) to "luxurious chests" (graphics are in production).
* Set a lower limit for speed reductions caused by effects like sluggishness (experimental).
* Added a new type of lock, "complex locks," that information brokers cannot open. Containers with locked status will display this information in the tooltip.
* Added four new graphics for random adventurers.
* A significant experience bonus is now granted when unlocking complex locks.
* Added Heart Cushions.
* Changed the treasure chest in Fiamma's quest to a complex lock chest.
* Added Wooden Bear Carvings.
* Junk shops will occasionally sell treasure chests with complex locks.
* Added friendly NPC "Dancer," placed in several towns.
* Some shops will now sell small lottery boxes.
* Added portraits for horses and sheep. (Thanks, minagi!)
* Recipes obtained during sleep or from treasure chests will no longer prioritize recipes that have not already been learned (as acquiring recipes had become too easy).
* Added two new portraits for Little Sisters. (Thanks, minagi!)
* Placed the solitary owl, "Griffin," in Mysilia.
* Flower crowns now display on characters when worn (only for characters with hat positioning data).
* Added Lighting Technician Licenses to the Notary’s inventory. Holding one allows free customization of lighting colors.


[Fixes]
[Fixes]
* Fixed a bug where the tooltip for plans displayed the skill acquisition status of companions.
* Fixed an issue where internally specified potions (e.g., healer shop items or Loytel's quest rewards) could generate non-stackable potions with unintended effects, such as poisons or acid resistance coatings. (Potions generated before this version will remain unstackable indefinitely.)
* Corrected an issue where stone-type materials in high-level Nefia dungeons were frequently turning into granite (since there were no Tier 2 stone-type materials, granite was being chosen as a fallback).
* Various minor fixes and adjustments.
* Other minor fixes and adjustments.


[Notes]
[Notes]
* It is currently intended that crops with the same enhancement level may have different trait values (trait values randomly increase as the enhancement level of the seed rises).
* Initial crafting items, such as buckets, now have a low chance of being generated as loot. Specific details about items and similar data are adjusted periodically without explicit mention in release notes.
* Regarding character color changes, these will be added in the future, but there are no plans to make dyeing colors easily achievable through dyes, etc. The idea is for individual colors to be part of the breeding enjoyment, such as when breeding creatures.
* Faith bonuses now increase based on the number of days of faith in addition to piety improvements.
* Requests for necessary functions or error handling for Mod creation are more than welcome. Feel free to send feedback from within the game. If any errors occur, such as when removing Mods, sending the save data where the error occurred would be helpful.
* Farming through fast travel isn’t currently planned for restriction. However, adjustments like reducing market value for repeatedly sold identical items may be considered in the future.
* Automation for resource processing and gathering is something planned for the future but will be considered after the basic crafting-related functions and balance are complete, so it may still be a while.

* Fixed an issue where the size of save data would increase every time you saved while using the cloud.
* Addressed potential errors that could occur during zone simulations.
* Fixed an issue where resident and faith taxes were not being applied outside tax-exempt zones.
* Fixed an issue where quality was not being inherited in certain crafting recipes.
* Addressed a delay when entering the global map for the first time after loading a game with many companions.
* Other minor fixes and adjustments.
* Various minor fixes and adjustments.


[Notes]
[Notes]
* Regarding overflow, the current approach is to address areas where overflow is most likely to occur during legitimate play, rather than covering all instances.
* Multiple NPCs on the same tile primarily occur as a fallback when no vacant tiles are available or during specific interactions. In general, adjustments will be made gradually to prevent exploiting this state for experience farming.
* Non-rotten, stackable food items will now automatically be consolidated by averaging their freshness.


=== Beta 22.79===
=== EA 23.48 (Nightly)===
<big>'''9/30 2024'''</big>
<big>'''12/4 2024'''</big>
  The location of the backup folder will change from "Elin/Save/Backup" to "Elin/Backup." If the "Elin/Backup" folder already exists for any reason, the backup folder will not be moved automatically.


* Updated/Added LastWish, credits, ingame memorials.
  This version includes significant changes to the internal save/load system, which may cause save/load processes to become unstable. It is recommended to back up all save data from the standard version separately from the Nightly save data for safety.
* Improved the natural feel of the fog of war rendering.
* Added and revised the crafting-related sections in the help menu.
* Items marked as important will no longer be taken by companions, even if placed in the shared backpack container.
* Residents with the hunter job will now only gather animal meat.
* Grimoires used for learning no longer function during sleep on the global map (this prevents unexpected issues when reading fails).
* Ether disease that angers neutral creatures in the vicinity will no longer affect the player’s companions or minions.
* Tutorials that start upon picking up a specific item will now also trigger when the item is held in hand.
* Trait level display now shows +1 compared to previous versions (to avoid the awkwardness of showing Lv.0 when the internal value is 0-9).
* Set the maximum weight limit of container contents to 999,999s (experimental; even if exceeded, items can still be added or removed as before).
* Items sold by notaries can no longer be rerolled (restocked).


[Fixes]
Elin generates a large number of save files with substantial file sizes. To optimize Steam Cloud usage, save files are compressed into zip format each time you save. It's possible that moving this compression process to occur only at the end of a game session could speed things up. We'll consider this approach based on user feedback.
* Fixed an issue where land deeds couldn’t be wished for.
* Fixed the problem where quality traits weren’t being inherited when using processing equipment (there’s no maximum limit on quality traits when using processing equipment).
* Fixed tooltip display issues in build mode (English version).
* Fixed the issue where food sold in shops no longer had quality traits.
* Fixed a bug where the input dialog remained open after entering a special code.
* Various other small fixes and adjustments.


[Notes]
If the position of widgets shifts when loading from cloud saves, try adjusting the widget anchors. For example, if the anchor is set to the top left, the widget's position will be saved and loaded relative to the top left corner of the screen.
* If Melilith doesn’t start a quest, try entering a special code.
* Receiving damage from Meteor is an intended feature.
* Excess experience points are reset when leveling up the Covenant Stone, and this is by design.
* Hand-type magic has the highest elemental multiplier (0.2x for miasma, 0.5x for arrows, 0.9x for beams, and 1.2x for hands), making it the most likely to inflict status effects. We’ll confirm if this is functioning as intended in the next update.


=== Beta 22.78===
During the Early Access period, we plan to focus on balancing primarily for floors 1–50, with adjustments extending to around floor 200 in the Void Dungeon. For floors beyond that, if major balancing adjustments are required, we may implement interim fixes or simpler adjustments like the one in the last nightly update. Additionally, as we have limited game data for high-level scenarios, attaching your save data in your feedback would be greatly appreciated.
<big>'''9/28 2024'''</big>


[Additions and Changes]
[Additions and Changes]
* Added a new rare speech style, "peko" (Japanese version only).
* NPCs now destroy fishing results when their inventory is full and cannot pick them up.
* Quality traits of crafting materials will now be inherited in the same way as other traits. The direct bonus to quality from crafting skills has been removed, and instead, the maximum value of the inherited quality traits will now be determined by the level of the crafting skill. Additionally, the maximum inheritable quality will be displayed during crafting.
* Adjusted some of Mesherada's dialogue (Since the name "Hathaway" is not intended to refer to a specific individual but rather to "that person" yet to be seen, akin to Beatrice in Re:Zero. In the player's case, they are the one she is searching for.).
* Storage box weight set to 20s.
* The enchantment effects "Travel Speed Increase" and "Magic Enhancement" no longer scale with level.
* Land rights cannot be relinquished for a month (to prevent players from taking items like statues out with the storage box).
* Kicking NPCs who obstruct construction no longer reduces karma.
* Only one land deed will be granted for each requested piece of land.
* NPCs will now be kicked even in Build Mode when constructing impassable blocks above them.

* Minions can now be banished even if they are far away.
* Kicking minions will no longer reduce karma.
* Minions will drop meat and genetic materials less frequently.
* The amount and quality of wool obtained from minions will decrease (equivalent to shearing a creature during battle). If shearing is unsuccessful, a message will now be displayed.
* NPCs above level 1000 will gain speed adjustments every 100 levels (provisional change to avoid excessive power).
* A heart icon will be shown when controlling others through blessings like Mani's favor.
* Changed the location of the backup folder.
* Cursed ether antibodies will no longer be sent upon contracting ether sickness for the first time.
* Experimental support for Steam Cloud.
* Added container backgrounds to bookshelves.
* Improved tooltip display in build mode.
* When mining or gathering, if the recipe is already known, there's now a low chance of drawing an unknown recipe within the same category (e.g., walls for walls, floors for floors).
* Tooltips for technical manuals will now show whether party members have already learned the skill.
* When rapidly clicking to confiscate items from allies, they will now go directly into the player's inventory rather than being picked up.
* Pulling actions like tentacle grabs will no longer affect areas out of the actor's line of sight.


[Fixes]
[Fixes]
* Fixed an issue where crafting would always fail if the crafting skill was lower than the recipe level.
* Various minor fixes and adjustments.
* Fixed an issue where the increase in potential abilities from eating did not decrease as potential increased (this was due to referencing base potential instead of temporary potential).
* Fixed a bug where teleportation could sometimes occur outside the map boundaries.
* Fixed a bug where, under certain auto-arrange settings, items set to rot were not sorted correctly.
* Fixed an issue where items in storage boxes that weren’t placed in bases could be used for crafting, or newly picked-up items could stack with them.
* Other minor fixes and adjustments.


[Notes]
[Notes]
* Due to the changes in the potential ability increase, balance may shift significantly. Feedback from experienced players would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, input on the crafting quality traits would be very helpful, as this is still under consideration.
* The selection of goods from exotic merchants does not change even when they are at the player's base. However, unlocking guild ranks may introduce services unavailable at the base.


=== Beta 22.77===
<big>'''9/21 2024'''</big>


[Additions and Changes] 
=== EA 23.47 (Nightly)===
* The store scale numbers no longer include the city's development level. 
<big>'''12/3 2024'''</big>

* Added new illustrations to the shipping screen. 
* NPCs will no longer pick up materials used in PC crafting from the ground while fishing or performing. 
* Slightly adjusted the balance of items generated in Nefia (more scrolls, spices, and potions). 
* Grimoires used for learning can now also read ancient books. 
* Updated the description of learning grimoires to clarify that they cannot be used simultaneously. Also, slightly increased their capacity. 
* Increased the price of the Love Whip. 
* Added new skin variations and snow graphics to ★storage boxes. 
* Removed the option to fill in the boundaries of maps from settings (can still be changed by directly editing config.txt). 
* When there are multiple animals on the same tile that can be sheared, you can now select the target to shear. 
* Characters that are suspended will no longer be affected by knockback effects. 
* Material quality characteristics will no longer affect the quality characteristics of items crafted through crafting. 
* Increased the boost to quality characteristics based on recipe level. 
* Unified recipe acquisition conditions to be based on the related skill level for each recipe. If there is no related skill, PC level (total feats gained) will be referenced instead. 
* When mining, digging, or gathering, if there is an available recipe that has not been learned yet and the skill level meets the requirement (recipe level - 5 or higher), there is now a high probability of acquiring the recipe. 
* When discovering a floor recipe, if the corresponding platform (foundation) recipe is also available and has not been learned, it will automatically be acquired. 
* When dismantling items with a hammer, if there is an unacquired recipe available and the skill level is met, there is a chance to acquire the recipe. 
* When randomly learning recipes during sleep, the system will now randomly select from unacquired recipes (if the skill level requirement is met). If there are no unacquired recipes, it will randomly choose from the already acquired recipes. Additionally, for recipes like blocks or platforms where leveling up the recipe has no effect, it will no longer reselect if they have already been acquired. 
* Changed the effects of the Ehekatl Body Pillow and the Altar of Invention to modify the required skill level for recipes. For example, if your cooking skill is at level 10, normally recipes up to level 15 (plus a random value) will be available. With the modification, recipes up to (15 + random value + x) will be included in the draw. 
* Slightly decreased the probability of learning recipes during sleep. 
* When reading recipe items, if there are no unlearned recipes available, it will now always draw from the learned recipes in that category. For construction recipes, if there are no unlearned recipes, nothing will happen, and the recipe will not be consumed. 
* Added a section in the help menu to explain recipes. 
 
[Fixes] 
* Fixed an issue where ground items were no longer being destroyed by fire or ice attacks after the last update. 
* Fixed an issue where sellers stopped offering acid-resistant coating liquid due to a category change in potions. 
* Fixed an issue where tooltips disappeared when right-clicking during appraisals. 
* Fixed an issue where certain actions like reading with a grimoire were not performed when loading from an autosave during sleep. 
* Other minor fixes and adjustments. 
 
[Notes] 
* With the changes to the recipe selection method in this update, if there is an acquirable recipe, it can now be obtained before duplicating learned recipes. 
* To check the exact values of skill enchantments, you need to open the enchantment list on the character sheet. 
* In the future, we might impose a maximum limit on the number of bases you can own (around 4 to 5). Feedback on this is welcome. 
* We are still in the process of fine-tuning crafting, and the specifications are subject to frequent changes. We aim to finalize a system that will be easier to develop and control in preparation for adding new recipes and expanding crafting in the future.

* Adjusted the display of potential ability icons.
* Adjusted the cost and limits of genetic feats.
* Changed the generation rates for scrolls, staves, and spellbooks. Also adjusted the item draw method for store-bought goods and dungeon drops. (Previously, items were drawn from the entire item pool based on weighted chances. Now, a category is drawn first, and then items from that category are drawn based on weighted chances.)

=== Beta 22.74 ===
[Notes]
<big>'''9/13 2024'''</big>
* Regarding the damage of high-level enhanced ammunition, if there is more feedback in the future, either the calculation formula will be reviewed or enhancement limits will be set.
* As for activities like farming experience points through idle mechanics in user maps, this being a single-player game, a certain degree of leniency is considered acceptable for active exploits.


[Additions and Changes]
<big>'''Hotfix'''</big>
* A storage box will become available as the main quest progresses.
* Fixed an error when generating iron maiden.
* Adjusted the storage capacity and price of the storage box.
* Crops can no longer be grown outside of bases or tents.

* When an egg not owned by the player hatches, the baby will no longer become the player’s pet.
* Claiming non-quest-related land will no longer automatically set it as the player’s home or respawn point.
* When drunk or confused while mounted, movement may occasionally become unsteady.
* For enemies with a single elemental attribute (e.g., Chaos Mushrooms), level adjustments based on their attribute will no longer apply. (Previously, Chaos Mushrooms, which are supposed to be around level 30, were being generated at nearly level 50 due to chaos attribute adjustments.)
* When the player sleeps, companions will now also fall asleep.
* Several genetic feats have been unlocked.
* Maximum acquisition levels have been set for some genetic feats.

  This is a Nightly version for testing a new type of container.
 
[Additions and Changes]

* Improved cave graphics.
* Set a limit to the multiplier effect of food nutrition.
 
[Fixes]
* Fixed an issue where PCs were not receiving the speed penalty from the Fluffy Tail feat while mounted (this was previously fixed for pets only).
* Various minor fixes and adjustments.
* Various minor fixes and adjustments.


[Notes]
[Notes]
* Pets that are parasitically linked to PCs are affected by PC speed, so if a PC has the Solitude feat, the pet's speed will also increase. This is intentional.
* Holding Shift and right-clicking to equip weapons or shields will equip them to the non-dominant hand.
* Items in the medicine category will gradually be added from now on.
* Starting with tomorrow’s update, crops will no longer grow outside player-owned territories (including tents).
* After tomorrow’s update, the update interval for the standard branch of the game will be adjusted to approximately once per week. The main reasons include:
** Adding content such as stories and quests takes several days even for a single update.
** Releasing updates only after sufficient testing through the Nightly branch.
** Aiming to release updates with as few untranslated parts as possible.
** The current update frequency often results in mods breaking with each update, increasing the workload for mod creators.
** Frequent updates have led to confusion and an increase in bug reports related to mods.

[Notes]
<big>'''Hotfix'''</big>
* Regarding the location generation of treasures from treasure maps and Nefia, there is no pathfinding check in place. Although there are ideas for implementing ways to travel to isolated islands, it will likely take some time.
* Fixed an issue where the game would freeze when viewing the status of mechanical companions while equipped with Mani's Blessing gear.
* Multiple reports have been received regarding errors when progressing with Loytel's quests while accepting random requests from Loytel, but the reproduction method is still unknown. If anyone knows the steps to reproduce the issue, it would be helpful if you could report it.
* Due to preparations for the Steam release and key distribution, I haven't been able to check channels other than the bug report channel on Discord recently. If you have any bug fixes or good ideas, please send feedback via the in-game bug report.

* Residents who are set to not use shared equipment will no longer place surplus equipment in the shared container.
 
[Fixes]
* Various glitches with the possession search widget have been fixed.
* Other minor fixes and adjustments.
 
[Notes]
* The reason the game saves right before entering a new map, rather than immediately after, when using a Return Scroll, is to ensure safety. This is because various processes, such as simulating time passage and updating the map version, occur when entering a map. This may change in the future to save immediately after entering the map.
* "Ash" is the nickname for Ashland, and "Fia" is the nickname for Fiama.
* The zoom level of the game screen can be adjusted using the map tool next to the mini-map.
* The current pet upgrade system gives a 10% chance to gain a new feat, a 30% chance to gain a new skill, and a random increase of 2 to the primary attributes the rest of the time. If there aren’t enough points to gain a new feat or a skill, they will be saved until there are enough points.

* The wallpaper reward will be added after Early Access. The early DLC reward "Cursed Mansion" will become free content after a certain period following the start of Early Access.
 
=== Beta 22.68===

[Additions and Changes]
* Harvesting certain map objects (such as ore veins, roads, and mooring posts) within cities will now be considered a crime.

[Notes]
[Notes]
* Mount graphics are not displayed indoors by default. This can be changed in the game settings.
* The post-EA adjustment and fix rush has started to settle down. The remaining updates for November will likely focus on minor tweaks and adjustments, addressing areas that don’t significantly impact gameplay but have been a source of concern.
* The ability to play panties is currently intentional.
* For "Yith" monsters, additional monsters will be added to their level range in the future, reducing their spawn rate. A rebalancing will be considered at that time.
* The smell trait of rotten food will be reduced when it turns into cheese, which will always have the [Stinky] trait. This is currently intentional.
* The fixed recipes for BBQ tables and cooking appliances are undecided at this time.
* The usefulness and strength of attributes (such as fire, cold, chaos, etc.) vary to some extent by design, and this balance is expected to remain until the main quest is cleared. However, adjustments are planned for the late game, where high-level attribute attacks exceeding a certain power level will trigger upper-level effects. These upper-level effects will vary by attribute, such as adding status effects, piercing attribute resistance by a percentage, and other balance adjustments, especially for attributes that are currently weak or difficult to use.

<big>'''Hotfix 1'''</big>
=== EA 23.36===
  In previous versions, the enchantments and traits granted by materials were stored as actual values on individual items. However, starting from this version, they are no longer included in the save data. While the effects of materials in the game remain unchanged, all items generated in previous versions will now have doubled enchantments—one from the saved item data and another temporarily applied by the material.
<big>'''11/22 2024'''</big>

[Additions and Changes]
[Additions and Changes]
* The effectiveness of beds for residents now depends on quality and the 【Healing】 attribute, rather than item level.

* Various minor fixes and adjustments.


=== Beta 22.61 (Nightly)===
[Notes]
<big>'''8/10 2024'''</big>
* NPCs do not retain level or experience data for individual abilities (spells). Under current specifications, the level of an NPC's ability (spell) is determined by the NPC’s level, with adjustments based on relevant stats, and this determines the effectiveness of the ability.
* While mounted, when the PC moves, the mounted pet’s turn is consumed.
* Effects of scrolls, shrines, magic, etc., are triggered after consuming resources. Canceling these actions will not refund the resources.
* Further adjustments to mechanics related to breastfeeding are planned.


In this Nightly build, there have been significant changes to the crafting system and its surrounding mechanics. These changes are expected to have a major impact on game balance, but rather than focusing on adjusting the current balance, the modifications are made with a long-term perspective, considering future development in terms of scalability and the overall direction of the game. Some parts are yet to be implemented, but the main changes can be summarized as follows:
<big>'''Hotfix'''</big>
* Fixed an issue where the minimap would not display when the UI scale was set too high.
* Increased the price of syringes.
* The mysterious girl now only sells items in Little Garden.
* The number of syringes sold by the mysterious girl now depends on the development level of Little Garden.


* Traits like "Sweet," which were previously seen only on food items, will now be applied to regular items as well. Additionally, the traditional quality rating will be converted into a quality bonus trait.
=== EA 23.34===
* The base quality will no longer change through crafting or farming. If a quality bonus trait is present, the base quality will increase proportionally.
<big>'''11/20 2024'''</big>
* The impact of quality on item prices and effects will be reduced. Instead, new traits such as value traits and recovery traits will be introduced in the future.
* When crafting, if multiple materials have the same trait, traits marked with a "+" (mainly food-related traits) will have all instances of that trait added together, while for other traits, only the highest value will be inherited.
 
The following are additional changes:


[Additions and Changes]
[Additions and Changes]
* Modifications to the crafting system.
* In no-roof mode, the walls of the room the player is in will now be displayed at their normal height.
* More detailed information about crafted items will now be displayed in the crafting screen. Additionally, the quality display in the crafting screen has been removed.
* Maps crafted through crafting can now be created to include up to 10 floors beyond the deepest level reached.
* Food traits will now display up to five slots, excluding fixed slots, and will be shown with a "+" symbol in the crafting screen. Traits with higher effects will be displayed first, and only the displayed traits will have an effect when consumed.
* Succubi no longer cause sickness or madness after engaging in pleasurable activities.
* Nutrition information will now be displayed in tooltips for food items.
* Containers with "Always Sort" enabled will now sort items upon opening.
* The probability of production-related skills appearing as random enchants on equipment has been reduced (on a trial basis).
* The shortage of surplus power causing shorts while operating generators has been removed (as the cause of the shorts was unclear).
* Item levels will no longer affect item prices (enhancement levels like +1 will continue to increase prices as before).
* Boss splash text will display in English for languages other than Japanese and Chinese (due to embedded font display).
* Pressing the x key while hovering over an item will display detailed information, including traits.
* The position of the window when using processing equipment will now be saved.
* Added the "Healing" trait to cotton.
* Materials stored in containers within a base can now be selected when using processing equipment (experimental).
* Reduced the probability of furniture having enhancement levels applied.
* Pets riding on or parasitizing the player will fluff the player less often.
* Even with magical manna, items belonging to NPCs (other than allies and residents) will still break. Additionally, ingredients on the ground will now be cooked.


[Fixes]
[Fixes]
* Fixed a glitch where the resize icon would appear on the background window when moving the mouse.
* Fixed an issue where the escort target in an escort request would disappear after a certain time if they were added as an ally after accepting the request.
* Other minor fixes and adjustments.
 
[Notes]
* Traits that count towards the five slots for food traits, excluding special traits like collagen, are those that provide positive experience points to abilities and potential abilities. Negative traits are always treated as separate slots.
* Existing seeds will receive a quality bonus according to their enhancement level once they have been grown. Apologies for the inconvenience, but please grow the seeds. Traits on cotton are inherent to the material itself and will not appear on seeds, but the enhancement level will be applied upon harvest.
* While nutrition is now displayed, there are no changes to the mechanics of eating. Nutrition = the amount of fullness restored, and it also serves as a multiplier for the experience points added to abilities and potential abilities. For example, a food item with 20 nutrition will restore twice as much fullness and grant twice as many experience points as a food item with 10 nutrition.
* The item level and base quality of equipment will now be fixed, regardless of the level of the dungeon (Nephia) they are found in. However, since the performance of equipment has always been determined by the content level at the time of generation, rather than the item level or quality, this change will not affect the performance of generated equipment. However, the reduced item level will result in lower sale prices for high-level equipment.
* Due to the changes in the crafting system, there may be unintended behaviors or imbalances. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.
 
=== Beta 22.60===
<big>'''8/5 2024'''</big>
* When items are made lighter with scrolls of feather, accuracy (or DV for armor) will increase. When items are made heavier, accuracy (DV) will decrease.
* Critical hit determination will occur after the hit check.
* The hometown discount will not affect the selling price of items sold by the player.
* Reduced the rate of damage increase for landmines based on danger level.
* Rest shrines will also cleanse curses and debuffs.
* Adjusted the experience gained from using magic: slightly decreased the bonus experience for low-level spells and halved the experience penalty for high-level spells.
* Replica equipment will be labeled as such even when unidentified. Shops that use currencies other than Orens will always sell non-artifact items in an identified state.
* If crops from harvest quests are taken away or offered at altars, karma will decrease.
* Changed the total assets field on the character sheet to elapsed time.
* Adjusted rewards for high-level bounty quests.
* Set a limit on the speed adjustment provided by the Ether Hoof.
 
[Fixes]

* Adjusted the frequency of mounted or parasitic pets fluffing the PC, reducing it only when they are silenced.
* The headhunting benefit of Kumiromi will no longer activate on faction members or minions.
* Unique characters will not age (visually).
* The rewards and drop categories for boss chests and random chests have been adjusted (light sources and ammunition will no longer be generated). The probability of generating artifacts has been added. A guaranteed artifact slot has been added for boss chests in fixed quests.
* The lock level for treasure chests will gradually decrease in its rate of increase after level 50.
 
[Fixes]
* Fixed an issue where using a rush enchantment to attack distant enemies would cause reflection damage to be received.
* Various minor fixes and adjustments.


[Notes]
[Notes]
* Regarding the tax balance adjustment, the fame cap is expected to occur around the 50th floor in the beta, and the balance is designed to be roughly break-even with museum + inn fees + guild salaries.
* The food effect bonus during hunger applies not only when hungry but also during starvation and similar states.
* The attribute given to hatched pets in the previous update is an "element" such as a fire hound or an ice hound, not a bonus to attributes. Bonuses to attributes are planned to be increased by feeding milk and imprinting during the baby period.
<big>'''Hotfix'''</big>
* Marriage will be possible in the future, although it might be introduced post-beta.
* Fixed an issue where items inside base containers could be selected for enhancements via scrolls.

[Notes]
[Notes]
* The shrine for armor enhancement exists because the number of armor pieces is higher compared to weapons (weapon enhancement).
* Faction effects on divine blessing equipment are only applied when the equipment is directly granted by a god. These effects will disappear if the corresponding god is not worshipped.
* Regarding the blessed equipment of the gods, the aim is not to achieve perfect balance for each individual piece. The balance of the gods is considered as a whole, including factors such as apostles and primary blessings. We appreciate your understanding as we consider feedback and make adjustments over a long period. Feedback on which gods are strong or weak is always welcome.
* Duplicated Demitas does not cause any harm. If this is an issue, please open the console when there are two Demitas and enter "RemoveDemitas."
* When Mani's genes are incorporated, the gene's name may change to that of an NPC. This is intentional (the gene itself is not directly Mani's but rather a random NPC gene item labeled as Mani).


=== Beta 22.57===
<big>'''Hotfix'''</big>
<big>'''7/24 2024'''</big>
* Fixed an issue where the party member order reverted to its original position after loading the game, even if it had been rearranged in the Party Information widget.

* Added three types of metal floor tiles.
  I’ve been receiving around 200–300 pieces of feedback per day, which I’m truly grateful for. However, I’m finding it quite challenging to keep up with everything. My PC is still not working well, so until the new one arrives, I’d like to focus on improving my development environment, including looking into recruiting staff to help with feedback and support. As for adding side quests and unique NPCs in towns, I’m hoping to start working on those in December.

* For Zephyr and Gunlance, the occasional firing during melee attacks is intentional.
* Regarding wish spellbooks, scrolls, and staves, only items that exist can currently be wished for. For example, a minor healing staff cannot be wished for because it is not an item with that name but a staff with a minor healing effect, so it is currently not wishable.

[Notes]
[Notes]
* Vitality, mana, and speed will only increase through racial base values, equipment, and feats in Elin, with no increase from experience.
* Growing crops outside bases and tents may eventually become unavailable, so it might be wise to wind down those activities soon. (This was a leftover temporary feature from the beta phase.)
* The main balance adjustments in the β version target levels equivalent to a danger level of up to about 25 floors. Balancing at higher levels, both in combat and production, is provisional (though some adjustments will be ongoing). Generally, we aim for levels above danger level 40 to be quite challenging even for well-prepared players. This is because future updates will greatly empower players through quest rewards, companion enhancement features, equipment strengthening functions, and more.
<big>'''Hotfix'''</big>
* Pet enhancement via Backer Wishes is planned and may be introduced during the β period. This likely involves using feat points to teach or enhance skills and feats for pets. This relates to the egg hatching function, envisioning that long-raised pets will ultimately become stronger than high-level monsters captured later.
* Fixed an issue where directional data for walls and other objects wouldn't load during map loading.

* If a roof appears in a fenced area, you can change it to no roof from the house board. Additionally, if there are multiple rooms inside the house, you can change the room groups with the room board and set different roofs for each group by placing house boards for each. All fixed maps are built using the in-game build mode, so refer to the buildings in fixed maps to see what kind of constructions are possible.
* Harvested crops from auto-farming will be stacked beyond the enchant level stack tolerance to avoid scattering. (In such cases, the enchant level will be changed to the average value of the stacked items.)
* Due to the structure of Elin's item categorization, the tree format allocation can be a bit cumbersome (some items are set to the parent category itself, making it impossible to toggle on/off all the child categories at once). However, improvements are planned if possible.
 
<big>'''Hotfix 1'''</big>
* Reorganized categories and added a few new ones.
* Improved the advanced sorting menu for better clarity.
<big>'''Hotfix 2'''</big>

* Fixed a bug where some stores were selling too many seasonings.
* This should technically be a HotFix, but the version is updated due to necessary translation updates.


  In Auto-Farming, adjacent crops of the same type gradually become uniform in variety and quality to prevent the harvested products from being mixed. If you wish to avoid this, try planting crops one space apart or intersperse them with different types of crops. In future updates, I may adjust this so that the uniformity of varieties (enchants) only occurs when the seeds are at level 1.
=== EA 23.19 (Nightly)===
 
<big>'''11/9 2024'''</big>
=== Beta 22.35===
* There are significant changes related to backup system. This is the first Nightly release for EA, and assistance with testing would be greatly appreciated.
<big>'''6/21 2024'''</big>
* Nightly version is a test version released ahead of major game changes. It can be accessed from the Steam Library by right-clicking Elin > Beta > "Opt into Beta." If no issues are found in the Nightly version, it will be released as the standard version.

The save data backup function only creates backups; manual copying is necessary for restoration. For more details, please refer to the System section in Travel Wisdom.
* Regarding the endgame content balance adjustments mentioned previously, this specifically addresses the issue where, at higher levels, the damage scale outpaces defense, causing both enemies and allies to die in one shot. We plan to address this based on feedback from high-level adventurers during the latter part of the beta.
A solution for lost invoices in the Loytel debt quest is under consideration, so please wait a bit longer.

* Mandrake's Scream affects all targets without sound resistance, regardless of friend or foe.
* Resident recruitment tickets can be used when initiating conversations to recruit residents from the home's request board.
* Currently, Jure’s feather fragments have no specific use.
* If a gene already added is removed with a recessive gene, feat points are returned (although the gene itself does not return).
* Although I wanted to add areas like cafeterias, chapels, and training grounds that would boost effects based on nearby facilities, focus on release testing for EA means this will likely be the final version for the beta test.

* Mods that have no effect when attached to wands will not be selected as random enchants during wand generation.

[Note]
  Regarding the changes to Ether Disease yesterday, it has been confirmed that curing Ether Disease, which had already manifested in previous versions, would be based on the effects of the new Ether Disease. For example, if the old Ether Disease reduced magic by -15, curing it would only restore the -4 from the new Ether Disease effect, resulting in a discrepancy of -11. Unfortunately, it is difficult to fully correct this issue, so a "Fix_EtherDisease" command has been added to the console.


  If you experience the above symptoms, open "System Menu > Others > Console" and enter "Fix_EtherDisease". This will cure all current Ether Diseases, and if your status is below the initial value, it will be restored to the initial value +1. If there is still a significant difference from the original status, please adjust it using SetElement in the console, or contact me via Discord or the feedback section. I apologize for the inconvenience.

[Mod Notes]
<big>'''5/29 2024'''</big>
* Currently, if a feat is added by a mod and then the mod is removed, any skills or other stats granted by the feat remain. While this is an area of improvement we’d like to address in the core game, changes may need to coincide with a save data reset if required in the future.
* For loading mods when launching Elin outside of Steam, the feature is already present, so this should be enabled from the EA version onward (currently, it tries to load the workshop folder for the production version of the app, so the feature is inactive).


<big>'''Hotfix 1'''</big>

[Notes]
* Unique materials for Rafflesia are planned to be introduced in the future.

[Notes]
[Notes]
* Thank you for all the feedback on the early game balance! Taxes and early game balance will be adjusted by the start of the beta (planned for 6/7).
* Item acquisition rates in jobs and hobbies are all influenced by the efficiency of the resident performing them. Treasure hunting will also be attempted based on the number of residents with that job or hobby.
* For the Ether Disease "Poison Dripping Hands," in this version, not only poison but all negative potions will be subject to generation.
* Gene drops follow the same conditions as for regular enemies’ loot drops (applies only when not allies, residents, or while in user maps). However, as there are currently limited means of obtaining genes, they will temporarily also drop in user maps.


  As I mentioned in the previous note, we are planning to hold the beta on Friday, June 7th. Here are the elements I hope to introduce by then. The % adjustment for Ether Disease is something I've wanted to implement for a long time, but it has been postponed due to programming complications with Elin. I'm thinking of a good way to handle it.

* The Theft skill can now be learned from guild trainers even if the Thieves' Guild rank is insufficient.

[Fixes]
[Fixes]
* Fixed a bug in the "Gold in the Mine" quest where Loytel, who goes to Vernis, would return home after a period of time. If Loytel returns, take him to Vernis and speak to him there to proceed with the quest without issues.
* Fixed a bug where farmers could craft shipment boxes.
* Fixed a bug where the current Nefia would be deleted upon moving to a different floor when its time limit expires. The intended behavior is that the Nefia should not be deleted while inside it, even if the time limit has passed.
* Various other minor fixes and adjustments.
[Notes]
* The plan is to ease the difficulty of the very beginning stages by the beta release. Rather than just adjusting numbers, we are considering introducing features or items that make the game more enjoyable (feel free to share any good ideas you might have).
* As for guild quests and rewards, they are currently treated as passive quests and rewards in Elin, resembling daily quests that are completed without active effort. When higher ranks are unlocked and players can exclusively advance within specific guilds, more interesting features might be possible. However, since there are multiple guilds and a lot of content, this will likely be delayed due to the current individual development situation.
* Regarding the War-Torn Ivan, faith can be placed in it, but its implementation is not yet complete. Full implementation is planned within a few days.

[Note]
* The basic tax will increase by 100 Orens every month for five years.
* Files and folders previously stored alongside the executable have now been moved to the same location as save data. This change is intended to prevent files from being overwritten during updates and to avoid potential issues with integrity checks that may detect modifications to these files. If any issues or unexpected behavior arise due to this change, please consider reporting them.
* The celebrity tax is a temporary measure, and in the future, I'm thinking to lower it and implement a system where taxes are applied to optional purchasable licenses (adventurer license, pioneer license, etc).

* To receive training from guild trainers, you need to become a guild member and get promoted.
* Experience points will be gained upon casting the identification spell, even before an item is actually identified, as intended.
* The numbers displayed on items like stethoscopes and love whips indicate the number of uses, not the number of items, so they cannot be purchased in portions.
* Unopened treasure chests with enhancement levels, as well as furniture enhanced with a wrench, already carry intrinsic value as heirlooms, given the associated cost. Further adjustments for added value are not currently planned.
 
* Newly added or modified feats for races and professions will not apply to existing characters. Apologies for the inconvenience-due to data limitations, this cannot easily be changed. Possible remedies such as character regeneration or gene-based solutions are being considered.

* Please expect a fair number of bugs from the past two months. Please report any issues using the bug report form.

[Notes]
[Notes]
* Due to changes in the metadata format of Moon Gates, using Moon Gates from the alpha version of Elin might result in errors.
* Evolution species not being included in the Warrior Guild's bounty hunts is currently intentional, as they are considered neutral beings.
* Mods from the alpha version will not be compatible with the beta version. Starting from the beta, please add a <version></version> tag in the package.xml of the Mod and specify the version in which the Mod's operation is confirmed. Documentation for this will be provided in the future.
* Save data compatibility will be maintained as much as possible from the beta onwards; however, there might be instances where compatibility is lost due to specification changes. Additionally, since the game is still in development, items that are intended to be quest rewards, such as Moon Gates and Stargazer's Moon Gates, might be obtainable through unintended means before the quests are introduced. Your understanding is appreciated.
* Due to the short update intervals of the game, Chinese translations are currently lagging by several versions. Options such as releasing the Chinese version on a separate branch are being considered for the future.

Line 2,797: Line 1,841:


[Notes]
[Notes]
  The concept of tax-exempt zones has been introduced. The initial land is tax-exempt from the start, and players can have two additional tax-exempt zones (currently). Income from non-tax-exempt land will be heavily taxed. This change is to prevent inflation from creating multiple profit-focused homes, especially with the introduction of home ranking rewards and tourism income. Many players may want to minimize home management to focus on adventuring, and the main Elin storyline envisions operating around 2-4 homes. In the future, it might be possible to increase the number of tax-exempt zones by, for example, paying an additional 10,000 Oren monthly tax per zone (assuming each developed home generates more than this amount per month).
* While the Mana Body 2 Feat is somewhat overpowered, this approach allows for some race or class abilities to remain strong. No changes have been made for now, though future adjustments may be considered.

* Players can make additional tax payments to Mysilia through the home maid or the secretary in Mysilia territory. Return gifts from Mysilia will be given only when additional taxes are paid.

* With the completion of "Gold Beneath," I can finally start reforming the home system. This home system reform, along with the store and museum operations system if possible, is scheduled to conclude the content planned for the pre-beta.
* Feedback on previous versions and ideas for improvements are always welcome. For pet skill acquisition, the current balance will remain (skills through skill books or genes). Given the demand for certain skills, there may be an option for the mysterious young girl to sell genes containing only specific skill memories.
* As for the Backer Wishes "Village of Nefu" and "Yevan of Strife," I have already started work on them, but completion may be pushed to after the beta release. I appreciate your understanding in this.
* In both the Japanese and English versions, the terminology for gene dominance and recessiveness includes playful language.

  • Disassembly tools now use the Anatomy skill.
  • Added a "Custom" folder to the Elin save data directory, allowing for easy addition or modification of custom replacement images. (Currently includes only a portrait replacement folder.

[Notes]

12/5 2024

[Changes and Additions Outside the Game]

  • Official tags and categories for mods can now be set in the Steam Workshop.
  • Documentation on setting Workshop Tags is available in the "Development Nook."

[Changes and Additions]

EA 23.48 (Nightly)

12/4 2024 

 The location of the backup folder will change from "Elin/Save/Backup" to "Elin/Backup." If the "Elin/Backup" folder already exists for any reason, the backup folder will not be moved automatically.

 This version includes significant changes to the internal save/load system, which may cause save/load processes to become unstable. It is recommended to back up all save data from the standard version separately from the Nightly save data for safety.

Elin generates a large number of save files with substantial file sizes. To optimize Steam Cloud usage, save files are compressed into zip format each time you save. It's possible that moving this compression process to occur only at the end of a game session could speed things up. We'll consider this approach based on user feedback.

If the position of widgets shifts when loading from cloud saves, try adjusting the widget anchors. For example, if the anchor is set to the top left, the widget's position will be saved and loaded relative to the top left corner of the screen.

During the Early Access period, we plan to focus on balancing primarily for floors 1–50, with adjustments extending to around floor 200 in the Void Dungeon. For floors beyond that, if major balancing adjustments are required, we may implement interim fixes or simpler adjustments like the one in the last nightly update. Additionally, as we have limited game data for high-level scenarios, attaching your save data in your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

[Additions and Changes]

  • NPCs now destroy fishing results when their inventory is full and cannot pick them up.
  • Adjusted some of Mesherada's dialogue (Since the name "Hathaway" is not intended to refer to a specific individual but rather to "that person" yet to be seen, akin to Beatrice in Re:Zero. In the player's case, they are the one she is searching for.).
  • The enchantment effects "Travel Speed Increase" and "Magic Enhancement" no longer scale with level.
  • Kicking NPCs who obstruct construction no longer reduces karma.
  • NPCs will now be kicked even in Build Mode when constructing impassable blocks above them.
  • Minions can now be banished even if they are far away.
  • Minions will drop meat and genetic materials less frequently.
  • NPCs above level 1000 will gain speed adjustments every 100 levels (provisional change to avoid excessive power).
  • Changed the location of the backup folder.
  • Experimental support for Steam Cloud.

[Fixes]

  • Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

  • The selection of goods from exotic merchants does not change even when they are at the player's base. However, unlocking guild ranks may introduce services unavailable at the base.


EA 23.47 (Nightly)

12/3 2024

[Additions and Changes]

  • Pebbles and (swimming) fish on the map no longer consume fertility points, as they are sometimes used as base decorations.
  • In user maps, the invisibility flag for Covenant Stones, Waystones, impassable furniture, and similar items is now removed.
  • In user maps, no more than three NPCs will be loaded on a single tile.
  • In user maps, no more than 20 items will be loaded on a single tile.
  • Yakasha statues can now be used for cooking (equivalent to campfires).
  • Adjusted genetic slots for some Apostle-related genes.
  • Added behavior settings to multiple NPCs.

[Fixes]

  • Fixed an issue where items inside locked containers could be submitted for quests. Similar bugs were also fixed.
  • Resolved an issue where holding a key for continuous attacks no longer worked with keyboard controls.
  • Fixed the incorrect application of adjusted gratuity amounts for NPC performances.
  • Other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

  • The official term for piety is "piety."

EA 23.46

12/2 2024

[Additions and Changes]

  • The name of the "Machine Ruins" has been changed to "Machinarium" to avoid overlap with other ruins.
  • Adjusted the cost and limits of genetic feats.
  • New genetic feats have been unlocked.
  • Some powerful genetic feats now require multiple genetic slots (applicable only to genes generated in this version and beyond).
  • If Meteor is not registered as a favorite ability, the PC will no longer use Meteor in auto-combat.
  • Items with different named identifiers will no longer stack.
  • Some animals will occasionally sleep beside the PC when they rest.
  • Added the "I'd like to sleep beside you" option to conversations starting with "Actually..."

[Fixes]

  • Fixed an issue where enemies visible via telepathy were not targeted for shooting or other actions in auto-combat.
  • Other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

  • Regarding the damage of high-level enhanced ammunition, if there is more feedback in the future, either the calculation formula will be reviewed or enhancement limits will be set.
  • As for activities like farming experience points through idle mechanics in user maps, this being a single-player game, a certain degree of leniency is considered acceptable for active exploits.

Hotfix

  • Fixed an error when generating iron maiden.
  • Crops can no longer be grown outside of bases or tents.
  • Fixed an issue where the PC would pat enemies on the head during auto-combat.
  • Fixed an issue where "Rapid Fire" was displayed as a feat available to the PC.

EA 23.45

12/1 2024

[Additions and Changes]

  • The Watering Jar can now be used in places where fences, walls, or furniture that blocks movement are placed.

  • Claiming non-quest-related land will no longer automatically set it as the player’s home or respawn point.
  • When drunk or confused while mounted, movement may occasionally become unsteady.
  • For enemies with a single elemental attribute (e.g., Chaos Mushrooms), level adjustments based on their attribute will no longer apply. (Previously, Chaos Mushrooms, which are supposed to be around level 30, were being generated at nearly level 50 due to chaos attribute adjustments.)
  • When the player sleeps, companions will now also fall asleep.
  • Several genetic feats have been unlocked.
  • Maximum acquisition levels have been set for some genetic feats.

  • Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

  • Holding Shift and right-clicking to equip weapons or shields will equip them to the non-dominant hand.
  • Starting with tomorrow’s update, crops will no longer grow outside player-owned territories (including tents).
  • After tomorrow’s update, the update interval for the standard branch of the game will be adjusted to approximately once per week. The main reasons include:
    • Adding content such as stories and quests takes several days even for a single update.

EA 23.36

11/22 2024

  • Fixed an issue where the "Into Darkness" quest could trigger twice, causing Demitas to multiply (due to changes in quest spawn conditions in the previous patch).

  • Fixed an issue where, when pasting container settings with a word filter already applied, the old word filter would remain active until the game was reloaded.
  • Other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

  • Faction effects on divine blessing equipment are only applied when the equipment is directly granted by a god. These effects will disappear if the corresponding god is not worshipped.
  • Duplicated Demitas does not cause any harm. If this is an issue, please open the console when there are two Demitas and enter "RemoveDemitas."
  • When Mani's genes are incorporated, the gene's name may change to that of an NPC. This is intentional (the gene itself is not directly Mani's but rather a random NPC gene item labeled as Mani).

  • Corrected a vision check error when using Bolt-type spells.

11/18 2024 

 I’ve been receiving around 200–300 pieces of feedback per day, which I’m truly grateful for. However, I’m finding it quite challenging to keep up with everything. My PC is still not working well, so until the new one arrives, I’d like to focus on improving my development environment, including looking into recruiting staff to help with feedback and support. As for adding side quests and unique NPCs in towns, I’m hoping to start working on those in December.

  • Various other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

  • Creating a field and digging with a shovel yields soil of that type, currently available in unlimited quantity.
  • Dice rolls decrease when equipping fist weapons, by design (fist weapons’ performance fully combines with unarmed attack capabilities, including enhancement levels and penetration, which can make them overly powerful with enchantments or upgrades).
  • If movement is blocked by an obstacle, self-harm may occasionally trigger teleportation.
  • Piety is a hidden value.
  • If unable to speak with Fiama or Ash, it’s likely they are angry and neutral. Try talking through the middle-click menu, kill them temporarily, or allowing a few days to pass.

[Notes] The save data backup function only creates backups; manual copying is necessary for restoration. For more details, please refer to the System section in Travel Wisdom. A solution for lost invoices in the Loytel debt quest is under consideration, so please wait a bit longer. Currently, there is too much feedback to read everything, so finding a better approach is being considered.

  • Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

  • The Sun Lamp emits sunlight even when its light is off (also when there is no power).

[Mod Notes]

  • Currently, if a feat is added by a mod and then the mod is removed, any skills or other stats granted by the feat remain. While this is an area of improvement we’d like to address in the core game, changes may need to coincide with a save data reset if required in the future.
  • For loading mods when launching Elin outside of Steam, the feature is already present, so this should be enabled from the EA version onward (currently, it tries to load the workshop folder for the production version of the app, so the feature is inactive).

Hotfix 1

  • Fixed an issue where the effects of the "Heavy Eater" and "Light Eater" feats were not applied correctly.

Hotfix 2

  • The “Seasoning” slot in cooking recipes now requires items categorized as “Seasoning” rather than items labeled as “Seasoning.”

[Fixes]

  • Fixed an issue where stacking status effects on bosses did not increase their resistance to that effect.

[Notes]

  • Item acquisition rates in jobs and hobbies are all influenced by the efficiency of the resident performing them. Treasure hunting will also be attempted based on the number of residents with that job or hobby.
  • Gene drops follow the same conditions as for regular enemies’ loot drops (applies only when not allies, residents, or while in user maps). However, as there are currently limited means of obtaining genes, they will temporarily also drop in user maps.

EA 23.4 Nightly

[Fixes]

  • Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Note]

  • Files and folders previously stored alongside the executable have now been moved to the same location as save data. This change is intended to prevent files from being overwritten during updates and to avoid potential issues with integrity checks that may detect modifications to these files. If any issues or unexpected behavior arise due to this change, please consider reporting them.

EA 23.3

10/28 2024

[Additions and Changes]

  • Fixed a bug that caused unique character traits (such as a Yowyn horse’s speed) to disappear when adjusting levels for characters like infants or bosses during generation.
  • Various other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

  • Experience points will be gained upon casting the identification spell, even before an item is actually identified, as intended.
  • Unopened treasure chests with enhancement levels, as well as furniture enhanced with a wrench, already carry intrinsic value as heirlooms, given the associated cost. Further adjustments for added value are not currently planned.
  • Newly added or modified feats for races and professions will not apply to existing characters. Apologies for the inconvenience-due to data limitations, this cannot easily be changed. Possible remedies such as character regeneration or gene-based solutions are being considered.

[Fixes]

  • Fixed an issue where plants that don’t require sunlight would wither during winter.
  • Corrected the swapped positions of "Talk" and "Attack" options when using middle-click.
  • Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

  • Evolution species not being included in the Warrior Guild's bounty hunts is currently intentional, as they are considered neutral beings.

EA 23.2

10/27 2024

[Additions and Changes]

  • Evolved monsters in a neutral state that always drop genes now appear randomly.
  • Adjusted the traits of the final traces of faint goodwill left in this unbearable world.

[Notes]

EA 23.1

  • The mysterious young girl now sells brain cells.
  • The development level of Little Garden now rises based on the number of Littles saved and decreases based on the number of Littles who have perished when the map regenerates.

  • Stationary enemies will no longer track the PC through pathfinding if the PC moves out of range.

[Fixes]

  • Fixed an issue where Heavy Armor Casting was no longer showing as an acquirable feat.

  • Corrected an issue preventing torii gates from being stacked on pillars outside of Debug Mode (proper placement is on top of pillars).
  • Various other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

  • Feedback on previous versions and ideas for improvements are always welcome. For pet skill acquisition, the current balance will remain (skills through skill books or genes). Given the demand for certain skills, there may be an option for the mysterious young girl to sell genes containing only specific skill memories.
  • In both the Japanese and English versions, the terminology for gene dominance and recessiveness includes playful language.
  • Regarding Specwing’s adventurers, the fairy town is intentionally designed as a gathering place for adventurers.
