- late-night battle events (currently, Thief Attack and Thief Attack 2) will no longer occur if both (1) a battle event already occurred earlier in the evening, and (2) a scheduled league match either occurred earlier in the day or will occur the following day. (Three forced fights in a row is simply too much to put on the player.)

- when counting the characters available for the smuggler's den or thief attack events, the game now only counts characters who have at least 50% of their health and 25% of their energy.

- fixed: localized text for participation aura awarded after losing an arena match had a spacing error.

- when initiating the first late-night thief attack event, the game now checks to make sure you have at least 6 characters available with health of 10 or more; if you don't, it aborts the event.

- when initiating the second late-night thief attack event, the game now checks to make sure you have at least 8 characters available with health of 10 or more; if you don't, it aborts the event.

- increased the minimum available characters necessary for the smuggler's den event to occur from 5 to 6.

- added a loading screen tooltip about surrendering arena fights.

- created a turquoise variant of the in-game rug object.

- the game now tracks if you lost the last qualifier match and, if it finds that you did, won't grant the victory bonus for repeat scheduled league matches prior to re-attempting the qualifier (so as to avoid a situation where losing is economically optimal).

Changes for version 0.7.60:

- scheduled league matches now award the player extra money when they win; the further up the ranks the player rises in a given league, the more the prize increases (+45 aura per scheduled match won in Monkey League; +60 aura per scheduled match won in Gharial League; +75 aura per scheduled match won in Snow Leopard League; and +100 aura per scheduled match won in Tiger League.)

- fixed: certain response lines incorporating a character's specific laugh were getting the entire line replaced with just the laugh description.

- if the game detects a plural in the Relationship parameter for an NPC attribute special character in dialogue, and the Attribute Type is a special character pronoun, the game will now supply the appropriate they/them plural pronoun.

- fixed: a change in the last update broke the NPC attribute special character in dialogue, causing NPC pronouns in proc gen character dialogue (particularly background lines concerning family members) to simply not appear.

- fixed: the Trailing Malatose event could be triggered repeatedly.

- cleaned up the interrogation of Wailling scene.

- fixed: if they hadn't been triggered beforehand, Ishita Svaamee's buyout offer events would remain in the random event hopper even after the championship.

- wrote new nickname response lines for compulsive and empirical characters.

- wrote a new talk narration for narcissistic characters.

- fixed: as of the last Unity version update, objects assigned to a player army (e.g. the statute in Defend the Idol) were using a material containing the wrong render order, leading to them always appearing behind characters even when they should have appeared in front of them.

- fixed: in rare circumstances, the game could still fail to display the counterattack sprite when displaying reasons why a character wants a piece of equipment.

- both proc gen and custom characters are now assigned a sad info response line when they are created.

- certain background lines now provoke a sad info response rather than the default info response. (If the respondent is a character from an older version who lacks the sad response variant, they'll just respond with a normal response line.)

- fixed: custom variables and other special characters within map objectives were not being processed during auto-displaying of objectives at the start of a battle.

- fixed: certain response lines incorporating a character's non-verbal tic where getting the entire line replaced with just the tic narration.

- fixed: when loading a previously created custom character in the custom character creator, the game was not loading tooltip data for the personality and physical trait pickers.

- fixed: tooltips for personality and physical attributes could appear below the portrait pickers in the character creation screen.
