Dubious Practice

– Around 17 new scenes
– Around 60 new or updated renders by Fiddlestick
– Alex’s entire stage 4! This includes over a dozen new scenes, about half of them with one or more render. 3 of those scenes are found in locations in town rather than in your office, and only one can be fully unlocked per path. This completes Alex training and transformation, but is not the end of her presence in the game.
– A slight rework of the training system in town. Instead of only being able to train a stat up to level 2 in town, you can now gain a maximum of 20xp. The end result is the same as originally intended, but it prevents some exploits and weird interactions.
– A rework of Tara’s introduction, with a new render and a slightly different storyline. The intro consists of 2 scenes, available when Alex is Stage 2 or higher.
– New portraits for Alex stage 1 and 2 by Fiddlesticks
– A change to the sidebar. The Case Files, Examine Yourself and Calendar will now only be accessible when not doing anything : i.e. in a location menu rather than during a story scene. This was made to prevent a number of bugs and exploit that caused people to skip scenes by overtriggering variables. It’s a bit of a brute force solution, but it does make narrative sense

Known issue:A few typos and missing words have been spotted by Discord members. I’ll wait a week or two and see if any other come up before posting a hotfix.
