Conquerrence WIP 1.6/Ver 1.5

February's already over! Last month was a firestorm of activity so it's nice to have a full month to work on things. That being said, I'm still very busy. This month I'm planning on getting two paths in two different nations done to get back on the Patron-specific schedule since the public schedule is already solid and accounted for. Only one nation is set in stone and in the middle of being worked on right now, with details below. Also, I'm glad that people love Timo's date and Timo in general. He was one of the very first people I conceptualized along with Camille and Ziatet, so to see him getting popular is fun for me- I'm sure he'd be very happy with his popularity, too.

Either way, thanks for continuing to play and support. Here's the update details:

Patron Build (WIP) - Ver 1.6

• Astope: You may have noticed that I've started to implement events and nations that ask things from the player, and Astope is no different. Although the twins aren't interested in leaving their haven of entertainment to marry you, now that you're entering their territory they'll treat you as a particularly esteemed guest. Before then you'll be privy to Astope's many performances, of course.  As stated before I intend to add more of the brother route into the game, so although the twins are far more interested in you, you might be able to get some information on your brother if you get on their good side.
• Another nation: An as-of-writing undecided nation from the remaining pool of those left unwritten. I usually decide these purely by random chance via wheel of names, so not even I know which one I'll end up doing until I reach that point. Since Astope is shaping up to be a Diplomacy based route however, it seems like this nation's leader will be receiving a Conquest route and very own fight scene.

Public Build - Ver 1.5

• Seridazar: Finally got around to not only actually entering the palace, but meeting the revered leader of Seridazar, Ziatet I. As mentioned earlier he's aggressive but flirty, and perhaps more importantly to people more concerned about unraveling the mystery: knows something about your brother. I'll definitely start adding a lot more of the brother path now that Diplomacy and Conquest are both pretty solidly implemented in the game. Eventually Seridazar will have one of the most complex diplomacy routes because of an extended period of living in his harem alongside Frateo, but that will be for a later time.
  
• Features: One diplomacy route, no 'endings', but NSFW scenes for postponing the chapter. Ziatet demands you fulfill your duties as harem member before you can leave, of course.
• Postponing Chapter: A new mechanic specifically relevant for time-based events which will be added to the game later. There are events that trigger based on how many chapters you finish already (such as the visitor to Wevendh from a couple updates back), but now keeping track of how many days you spend will be important. This started in the Seridazar chapter because Ziatet's main route, harem, will involve 7 whole days spent there. One especially dramatic time-based event is going to happen in the North- I'm curious if anyone will figure it out before it gets implemented.

Bugfixes:

• Hotfix: Some of the code in Seridazar just didn't link the correct passages together, or at all. This has been fixed.
• Rewrote the Timo date linking code entirely because of unexpected conflicts which broke not only the time system but the flow of the date itself.
• Reformatted several areas' text to have proper line breaks and not large empty spaces.
