Update 1.173 (Patreon)

Hey, folks! It's been a while since I've done a housekeeping update, but here's one now! (It's a lot easier than trying to do a normal update when I have a week of guests, haha).

IMPORTANT INFORMATION! PLEASE BE SURE YOU READ THIS!

= The dreaded Renpy 8 update is upon us. With this update, I expect all saves (except for those of you on android maybe) to no longer work.  You can try to circumvent this by copying the RPYC files from the last build to overwriting the new RPYC files, but that's something you'd need to do every update going forward. The most headache-free way to handle it is by just deleting your old saves and starting new ones.

This shouldn't impact persistent data though, so things like the gallery or having cleared routes and unlocked epilogues should be okay.

With this update came some internal updates to code and how variables are handled. I haven't done -full- runs on all of the routes still, but from all I've tested, things seem stable!

I also removed a lot of unused files, be it art, music or scripts.

= Chester, Darius and Dozer all got their intro dream kisses added in!

= Darius's assistant, Linda now has a sprite.

= Chester's second friend is no longer a black silhouette!

= The antagonist in the locker room for Spencer's route has a sprite too!

= I didn't think about it until last minute, but I started adding hotspot indicators in other places. Looking around Chester's room and Spencer's first touchy scene are two of those places. I even added a couple of extra spots to Chester's room to click on! It's not much, but I think just little things can be interesting.

= The Farmer's Market background in Richard's route got updated.

= French Translations! Updating to Renpy 8.0 let me include new translation files again, and the start of French translations are there. There isn't much (really, it's just Day 1 and some misc. things), but it's a start! You can adjust the language in the options to take a look.

I think that's all of the important stuff I needed to make note of. Dwayne's Day 18 is the next in rotation for July 1st, then Richard's Day 24 on July 16th!
