Coffee Story 20250215

I believe this update doubles the amount of freeform dialogue.

v2 hotfixes:

- Fixed player portrait crash, when configured to appear on left side. Recommend playing on default, as it's untested.

- Recompiled in native code. Should improve performance.

• Added Nanami to the list of interactable NPCs. You can now talk to her when free as you do with Yuri and Kari. She appears after clearing the Sleepover and working once at Cat-Cat, but her topics and sunset interactions only unlock after completing her story segment.

• Added location based topics to discuss with Kari(park, cafe, school, home), Nanami(park, cafe, school) and Yuri(school). These vary greatly in length and quality. (i.e Kari at school has over 300 lines with a male and female variant, Kari at the cafe has just 30)

• Shuffled around the locations a bit. Nanami will now be in Kari's usual spots, Kari will be in the newly repurposed classroom in the afternoon and the WC after class(if you've found her in the lab) or near the exit(if you didn't).

• You now trigger Nanami's backstory through a dialog option, rather than just talking to her. She also won't go with you anywhere at dusk until you finish her event.

• Changed the freeform dialog layout a bit:
  Grouped all topics that are about the main cast into the "About..." option.
  Other topics aren't grouped yet, but might get the same treatment if the amount increases.

Notable fixes and adjustments:

• The needle doesn't count as an item for the purpose of leaving the void forest.

• Increased cohesion gain cap to 3 per character per day.

• c-alpha now removes all parasites, decontamination spray removes only Squidrabbit.

• Added c-alpha recipe to the console accessed through the Woods.

• Fixed a crash caused by petting the cat. Might not be the crash that everyone experiences.

• fixed missing collision in the mall

You can expect the next gameplay update late April/Early May.

I aim to get at least one more event out before that.
