Well hey, I guess this is still a thing! It's been a minute. I have to remember how to do these things again. So, this update took a little bit to work out there. I wish I could say that it was a mind-blowing amount of labor from me, but unfortunately what it really comes down to is that sometimes life just knocks you down and your hobbies have to come second to survival. Part of why I've always insisted on keeping this mod a hobby was knowing I may not always be able to focus on it like I'd like to. But enough about me, lets get to what really matters. The real heroes of this mod, the crazy mod team that put their time and effort into growing this mod just so everyone else can enjoy it too. I highly encourage you to read the changelog and see all of the work they put in (along with more details on some new features from the person that scripted it).

Bugfixes & General Stability

The only good bug is a dead bug!

I have to note the incredible effort in bugfixes. zclimber lead the effort with 19 submissions on their own! Durandal3, FlaireFleetmist, and CyrusLance all helped make it a far more stable game (fixing both existing bugs and some caught from new features). Check out "Changelog - v1.9.txt" in the Changelog folder to make sure your favorite bugs have been squashed.

AricTriton's New Dimensional Crystal Ability: Detoxify

Due to losing my old PC, I also lost all my notes on what I was working on. But I remembered Detoxify! Detoxify is a new Crystal Ability that grants you a new spell when discovered. The spell will fully purge the Toxicity of a slave at the cost of one of the Crystal's Lifeforce. It requires at least level 2 to unlock.

durandal3's Lactation & Milking Updates

Moderate rework of how lactation and milking works. The basic ideas of how things work are basically the same, but the details are significantly changed. Basic concept after fixing bugs was to remove the artificial cap of 50 when milked in the farm, adjusting the hyperlactation bonus so it didn't get too crazy, and trying to clarify the definitions of milk regen/storage/max/pressure. Hyperlactation  significantly changed. Now increases regen/storage during normal lactation, and has no special effect during milking. Allow pressure to expand breasts up to max size while hyperlactating. Add a new lactating field for hyperlactation duration, to increase the bonus over time (instead of being based on normal lactation duration).  Change what exactly pressure represents, to be the extra milk stored beyond normal capacity.  Some changes also made to milking in the farm. Remove the secondary hyperlactation production bonus, but also remove the limit of 50 milk produced. Hand extraction mod now more heavily based on milkmaid skill,  and effort can help make up for a low skill level. Now it takes a moderate amount of time for a milkmaid to become skilled enough to out perform the auto-extractors (also tweaked the auto-extractors to make them a little better). Use milkmaid lewdness for lust gain.

durandal3's Reworked Mental Stat Tracking

Several changes to how mental stats are handled to fix some inconsistencies and errors. Gear bonuses are now tracked separately, so they don't prevent increasing a stat when you should be able to. Also colorizes the stat display on the slave tab. Changes how stat maximums are handled, so all changes to the max (generally from traits) are applied equally at all grades. Before would mostly only apply positive changes to grades below noble. Actual maximum (including racial/trait modification) is now consistently shown everywhere. Includes backwards compatibility changes to be able to update existing games. Instead of needing to apply the racial stat bonus when getting the current/max, or setting the base, apply the racial bonus to the base/max directly.
