Hey Nunu, I haven't been able to enjoy your recent update as I keep getting hit with errors on various parts of a run, such as trying to view the "Event Tree" (the button above the ?, I don't know what to call it) across multiple times throughout the days unless I am already in an event, viewing the patch notes in-game, trying to view some paths in events (Like Lin's advice I think it was) and the killer which sends me back to the menu with no way to roll back to try and avoid it. The reason being is because it's the start of Sunday.

I figured others had come across the issue(s) and reported it resulting in the lack of a devlog here as you fix them along with you working to finish Lina Halloween aswell, but then I thought I might aswell risk a repeat reporting to make sure you're aware of them. Thanks for all your work.

Edit: actually, re-reading your issue, it doesn't seem like a key error at all. I know exactly what would cause that issue... and it shouldn't be happening (though obviously is). When was the last time you did a clean install (you can keep your save files)?

I've never minded repeat reports, the alternative is that there might be something I miss (Or worse, a bug report that has slipped through the cracks), which is so much worse. So if you ever feel the inclination to report something, I will always do my best to check it out. The worst it can cost me is a couple of minutes and it might be something really important.

One of the most common bugs that happen in the guide are key errors, effectively a spelling mistake in a variables name. These are a lot more common than I would like...

So if you shoot me either a screenshot of the error or even just the line that says key error I'll do my best to fix it up.

I'm not exactly sure how you would do a "clean installation" of these types of games where you just extract the files unless it's as simple as deleting the old folder before extracting the new one (which I always do) instead of overwriting the files, or I have a misunderstanding of how it all works.

Here's the error, I hope this screenshot has enough of it to help.

... Ah.

That's not a fun error, mostly because it's caused by me doing something very sloppily.

But the good news is that you can really easily solve this one. Just go to the folder: CabinByTheLake\game\images\ui\version
Duplicate one of the files and change it to version38 and the error will go away.

Also I'll fix it on my end of course.

Thank you Nunu, that seems to have fixed it. I haven't run into anymore of those pesky errors.

However, I did notice a few tiny things that aren't of significance but just so you know, Sami's 5th corruption when deactivated still shows the "Under Construction" symbol but does turn to the usual lit star when activated, and maybe these are temporarily gone for editing purposes or such but Lisa and Sami's Bio's in the "In-between" as I call it (the menu for all the corruption toggles and whatnot) are missing.

Keep up the good work and don't burn yourself out.
