• 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.

A solution for lost invoices in the Loytel debt quest is under consideration, so please wait a bit longer.

• Added a statue of Kumiromi, which now appears randomly in locations like Nefia.

[Fixes]

[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

• 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.

[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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

EA 23.1

10/26 2024

• Reinstated the “Display damage numerically” option under the Experimental tab in Settings due to popular demand.

[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.
