Here is the English translation of the v1.0.12 version update notes:
### **Main Updates in v1.0.12**
#### **New Features**
- Added the **"Sky Workshop"** feature: Equipment upgrade/advancement.
- Added combat damage/healing display for elemental affinities (mutual generation/restraint) during battles.
- Increased the maximum level of **Secret Realm Cultivation** to 3000.
- Raised the maximum **Sect Level** to 65.
- Increased the maximum **Disciple Level** to 3020.
- Raised the maximum **Dao Skill Level** to 25.
- Enhanced the difficulty of stages beyond level 1500.
- Introduced new equipment tiers:
- **Wuliang Tier**: Obtained by increasing Sect Level.
- **Tianji Tier**: Acquired through the **Netherworld Collection's Demon Trial** or by unlocking opportunities.
- Adjusted the elemental attributes of certain Dao Skills (e.g., **Emerald Vine Poison Strike**, **Wood Spirit Blade**, **Water Flow Impact**, **Water Wave Nourishment**).
- Added a new red-class profession: **Star Descendant** (a balanced profession).
- Added refresh notifications for **Netherworld Collection**, **Sky Workshop**, and **Recruitment Pavilion**.
#### **Optimizations**
- Improved attribute gains from high-level Sect functions like **Body Refinement** (significantly increased high-level Sect attribute benefits).
- Reset the time consumption for Sect functions like **Body Refinement** to initial values.
- Increased the recruitment weight of advanced professions in the **Recruitment Pavilion** as Sect Level increases.
- Reduced the benefits of **Martial Skill Damage**, **Internal Force Damage**, and **Critical Rate** from attribute points.
- Fixed the issue where the **Sky Workshop's** refinement prices were not reset.
- Optimized some in-game text prompts.
#### **Other Changes**
- Added a **save backup feature** (`saves_backup`) to prevent cloud save loss in case of computer crashes or game process termination. If a save file is corrupted and the game cannot create a new save, you can:
1. Enable Steam offline mode.
2. Manually delete the save files in the `saves` folder.
3. Copy the backup files from `saves_backup` to `saves` to attempt recovery.
**Save File Location**: Press `Win + R`, enter `AppData`, and navigate to `\LocalLow\skyblack games\Timeless Teapot\userData\saves`.
- The **Achievement System** is temporarily unavailable due to technical reasons and will be updated in future versions.
- Features like **Formation Setup** and **Herb Gathering/Alchemy** are currently in development.
