As usual, I spent much of this week eliminating reported bugs.

However, I also had time to implement a drinking scene with Elaine. As shown in the video, if Elaine is sitting in the living room, you can ask if she wants to have a drink with you. Note that every time you drink, the amount of food in the fridge is lowered. However, the scene will end well before the fridge is completely emptied (so you won't have to worry about Elaine voring you afterwards for not buying enough groceries, lol). And as you can see, the scene can end in various different ways. Like the side preds, if Elaine gets sufficiently drunk, she will absentmindedly refuse to let you out until she's sobered up, even if you have a good relationship with her.

I've also made a small redesign of the Lifesaver (i.e. the packets and the tablets) mechanics. As of now in the released versions, each packet or tablet increases the Digestion Delay Timer, thus incentivizing the player to buy as many packets as possible and to use as many tablets as they're able while inside of a pred's stomach. I think y'all would agree that this is tedious and unfun. So I changed the mechanic so that packets/tablets now set or reset the Digestion Delay Timer (unless doing so would decrease the Timer). This means that you will now only ever benefit from having one of each packet in your inventory. Additionally, if you Rest in a stomach, it will be interrupted once the Digestion Delay Timer ticks down to 0, making it easier for you to use tablets continuously. However, your sleep will NOT get interrupted, and since the Digestion Delay Timer will always run out at some point while you're sleeping, your Health will decrease every day no matter how many tablets you have.
