No day skips: As it is currently, but a day only passes after you enter a combat (as Darkest Dungeon does it) so you can't just enter a dungeon and immediately retreat.

Free day skips: A button gets added in the guild to skip a day without any cost (not even breaking your streak). This may break the balancing on some stagecoach upgrades, but those will be dealt with later.

Penalized day skips: The day skip button doesn't reset your streak, but lowers it by a set amount. The streak can go negative from this, forcing you to work it back up.

Skipping days should be easier, but not lead to spam skipping to train faster or something. Treating skipping as retreating from a dungeon should be minimum cost.

Maybe make there be some cost associated with it, with some slight benefit. "Paid time off" for all the girls - so a Gold cost, but small boost to each girl in some fashion? (Faster decline in negative traits/crests?) I agree with Anon, you could just roll up a new team for a different dungeon instead.... but sometimes I hate getting sidetracked when trying to focus on uncursing a certain character.
