Weekend Update 10/02/22 - New billing updates (Patreon)

This week I implemented a newly released feature on Patreon that will change when new patrons are billed. Instead of having all patrons billed on the first of the month patrons will now be charged on they day they sign up each month. Existing patrons will be billed on the first of the month as usual.

The new feature required some maintenance on smutcube.com's back end code. Unfortunately, the Patreon API doesn't fully support the new feature so credits will still expire on the 7th of each month, but will be refreshed if you log in to Patreon per usual. More details are in the discord, but they're not really useful or interesting.

For the beta build I've implemented and improved the click and drag system of the game, however it is still not perfect. Now you can click and drag toys from the inventory into the scene and they will be spawned, along with a gizmo wherever you drop them. The dropping of the toys in the scene is far from perfect, dropping them anywhere but the stage requires looking at the floor from below and the toys aren't being dropped exactly where the mouse is. I'll be improving the code for this on Wednesday and writing my progress in the daily update channel on Discord, per usual.

I also fixed the Toy Box UI appearing in every scene erroneously, fixed credits being assigned the wrong tier occasionally, and fixed a bug that caused dragging a toy from out of the inventory and back in to register as a "purchase" event.
