Ran into some dubious situations in 0.8.1.6

There seems to be an oversight with textiles. There’s simply nowhere to buy cloth to try and practice artisanship (and levelling up crafting is frustratingly grindy as it is). The only way to do it is to keep scrapping merch for a chance at cloth scraps to then put them together as textile.

During the quest The Prowler From the Depths, you can confront the professor about the Medallion you pick up from the abominaton at the abandoned house. You then get into a Manipulation check which I got curious and save-scummed for. No dice, couldn’t pass it despite having really high Manip. So I opened up the html and eeeeyyy, that test is a fake! It’s not rolling dice, it’s just telling me I failed by a small random amount! I got a bit miffed, not gonna lie =P

Still a handful of .PNG and .JPG lingering in the assets.

Dakota’s quest mentions that the next step is going to her Birthday but that seemingly never happens? No prompts, no options, no updates… Wanted to edit my save to try and fiddle with flags but it’s unfortunately not serialised and I’m not in the mood to find and reverse engineer that in the middle of that 14 megs html =P UPDATE - Well, I DID dive into the html, fiddled with my save and figured it out. If you miss Dakota’s party, the quest just stalls forever. This could be intended but it’s frustrating and confusing. One easy way to remedy this even without having a backup route would be to have a start of day announcement to remind the player to go to the party. Also, as a suggestion, consider dropping the encoding and just storing the save file as plain text when exporting/importing to aid in situations such as these

I seemed to run into a sound effect issue. I’ve lowered my volume to 50% and I think some conditions are causing the reduction to get applied to some sounds multiple times. I’ve noticed this as some gun sounds (Rifles the most definite offenders) eventually vanish after a while during long play sessions. I thought the sounds were just not playing but at one point I noticed them playing veeeery faintly.
