New patch. Most notable one is a more comprehensive fix to various lag issues that may have been happening since we added a plugin to deal with

this innocently looking bug for the hair clipping into the upper part of the chair (which in RPGMaker is marked to be above character so when Aura runs behind the chair, she's behind it. But so are the top pixels of the hair) Another bug in this area caused the bug to kind of go crazy on some devices. I fixed the other bug last week but mysteriously, some degree of frame drops still remained for some other users and it turned out to be the plugin we included to fix the above issue. A plugin from 2015 that's distributed by official RPGMaker channels in the dlc folder of its steam version. There is a non-zero chance that this bug our assistant developer Trihan fixed this week is the origin of many other laggs in other RPGMaker games also using this officially distributed plugin to fix the little graphical glitch.

FUN.

Also notable is Fast Item Stance being so incompatible with the base engine implementation of items, there are still very notable bugs in it. Like reading books twice if you have it on. :'''''D

Finally, slime is getting hit yet again with a small tweak, this time to its stat line. It lost a bit of starting HP and its curves have been generally lowered. When will slimie finally not break the game?! :D

Other stuff is mostly minor fixes. See you for the devlog post after this!
