Stackable items Items can now have a count of more than 1. The AI receives item counts within prompt context, and may specify a count if granting or removing items (works in both Specialized and Unified mode). Items will be auto-stacked if they're common or uncommon and spawn wit
Random events V2 Years ago, the game used a rudimentary system in which the text "Just as you are about to leave" would be appended to the prompt when attempting to change locations. Today's new system leverages the fact LLMs can actually follow instructions, and includes a bag o
Added explanation text for many options and scenario settings Improved all translations across all languages Added back legacy encounters, togglable in options Updated encounter txt file versions to prevent errors when using outdated mods Fixed issue with encounter state difficul
Revised Encounters Bars : There are now end-state bars vs status effect bars. AI is encouraged to output 0 end-state bars for pure combat. End-state bars use pure win/lose guidance to avoid contradicting the story when hitting a terminal point. Encounter turn : After each player
Preset fix Fixed UC Berkeley preset which had unintentionally stripped out all references of Judo, and added easter egg ability/perk combo for osoto gari Gameplay Improved logic for picking required item/ability in Specialized mode Improved fix for silent NPCs, when talking to th

Sentiment Increased sentiment min/max to -100 and +100 to fix issue where characters would become your best friend or worst enemy too fast. Increased delta range to -10 and +10 to give AI more freedom in how fast sentiment changes. Map Added merge regions and split regions functi
4 Followers Added capability for 4 followers. The number of followers whose descriptions are included in context will depend on your configurable scenario context limits, though the game will try to prioritize the most important characters as usual. Stop Button Implemented stop b
Perk trees Each playable character gets 3 class-based passive perk trees. Spend points to unlock perks, then pick which ones should be active in context at any given time (limit can be configured in scenario context options). Access the perks view via the "Perks" button in the ab
Added two AI Roguelite “Nostalgia” builds as free DLCs. These have a special place in my heart because they were made back when LLMs and image generators were budding technologies which barely worked and weren’t controversial. Since ChatGPT hadn’t been invented yet, the game used

I am currently having issues with one of my service providers. I believe I've already resolved model quality issues for all requests except Unified mode. For unified, I'm using a backup model which performs about as well as the preferred model when it works, but doesn't follow in
Improved TTS All users across all tiers can now enjoy vastly improved TTS logic: LLM-generated script: Uses an LLM to generate which voice says what, which is vastly superior to naive algorithmic matching based on punctuation. TTS options: Choose from single-voice narration, narr
Model refresh Updated Sapphire text gen to a significantly better and faster model for question-answering and Specialized mode story generation. Some users in some languages may experience quality issues with the story generator. In this case, please use the "Creative" story mode
Spawn entities Added spawn entity, spawn item, and spawn new location on map. This is more convenient than console commands. This is on by default for Adventure and Roguelite settings. Added options for spawning entities in grid mode Minor fast travel overhaul By default, traveli
Unified game master mode Background: Under the original system (now known as “Specialized”), each task would be broken down into a separate prompt and handled individually. There was a separate prompt for plausibility, item usage, skill/attribute selection, target selection, stor
