Title: Mystical Power Plant Enhancement Patch v0.65 (requires English patch)
Post by: DarkPermafrost on March 03, 2019, 08:55:18 AM
Current release (v0.65, 4 March 2019) (https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/269993229775011849/552151524340662312/enhancement_v0.65.zip)



So recently I've been fooling around a lot in MPP doing some stupid (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuagd1wUJeQ) things (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9endry0cno) (shameless plug), and in the process I made some minor quality-of-life changes to fix a few things that have always bothered me. I figured other people might be interested in what I've done, so I've bundled them up and decided to release them as a package.

I was running the English patch when I made these changes, so you'll need to install that if you want this to work properly. You can find that here (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,15589.0.html).

Installation instructions for the patch itself are included in the readme bundled with the download.

Keep in mind this patch has only been tested on Lunatic. If you find something I missed, let me know.

Spell card names and comments have been updated to match the current iteration of the translations on the Wiki (as of 3 March 2019).

Healthbars are now readable at a glance, even when surrounded by bullets or obnoxiously bright effects.

Other changes that can't be conveyed via pictures (or I'm too lazy to get pictures of)
- Relevant boss spells now use the whole health bar. This includes all spell practice spells.
- Re-enabled the little blue notch that shows when a nonspell ends and a spell starts.
- Boss health stars now reflect remaining life bars (like in official games and all future Kaisendo games) instead of remaining spell cards.
- Fixed spell history bugs in Stage 5. They should all be consistent with the histories displayed in the spell practice menu now.
- Fixed a barely noticeable bug with the timer that caused it to start beeping at 11 seconds remaining on the clock and remain silent at 1 second remaining.
- Skill tree gauge turns transparent when you're in its general vicinity, as opposed to when you're directly on top of it.
- Other minor translation changes (such as the options menu).



Please report any bugs you find below, and I'll see what I can do.
