Just Friends Closer Build 0.45.0.0 Release!

Hey there guys, today I bring you all the Build 0.45.0.0 one day earlier.

There are a few notes I want to tell you guys before you download this build:

Given an error a Patron related in the previous build, an error I was unable to reproduce here, I came to the conclusion my Save System is starting to get outdated. This means a new Roadmap feature was added for Tier 3+ patrons to vote on tomorrow, you can check the options on the RoadMap feature of the main menu in the game. 

I found some weird issues I'm trying to figure it out what's happening. For some reason Godot is not opening the debugger for me, so I can't check issues in-real time anymore, I still can see issues if I need, but that's a developer thing and doesn't influence you guys. However whatever is causing it, the main menu is taking a little too long to start the animation for the buttons and title to appear, and I need to figure out what is happening. If this is an issue with the gallery loading multiple sprites at once I need to figure out a way to make that faster. For now, that's just a small thing and so far no one complained to me so I will keep trying to find out what is happening whenever possible. 

And now about the issue the patron found, I believe it has something to do with the Save he used, it seems he used a save from an older version to load his previous day and keep on going, we know that older versions didn't have the Filter system in them, so maybe that's one of the reasons. As the game develops further and I add new features, way too old save files can become incompatible. That's why I need to work on a failsafe for the save system, which can take a pretty chunk of my time, so I can't just do this while I work on a new route, that's why this option is now on the Roadmap for you guys to vote. 

Another change is that I added a small temporary remark on the Options menu, where the game now states where the Game saves a LOG file every time you start the game. The log usually has some annoying information Godot keeps pestering me every single time about stuff that I can't correct because they are core issues, however, it also logs any crashes. So if you experience a crash, the game saves a LOG file in that folder. That's why I stated where that folder is and what e-mail you should send the file to me while stating what the bug was too. Only the last file is necessary. 

Finally: This build has a new route for Wagner! His second Plot Route happens on Day3.JSON, which is the 4th day in-game. The Changelog specifies how to get that route if you want it but all you need to do is go through the route where you can see Wagner rubbing sunscreen on Aiden. 

That's about it, the new route has more than 2k words and 75 dialogues. It took me seven tries until I got the end result, and I'm still not satisfied with it, so if you guys find that route weak, I can re-write it, I do hope it's good though. 

As much as I think bug-fixing the game and fool-proofing it from unnecessary crashes, I believe it's up to you guys on Tier 3+ to decide if I should work on that or new routes. Some issues can take more than a month to fix though. 

So for now, I hope you guys enjoy this new build and if you haven't seen it yet, remember that a new sneak-peek of Johan is available for Tier 3+ patrons here, and it was already added to the Tier 4 Telegram private group! As long as you're a tier 4, you can be in that group too. 

And finally: I have added a new link in the Title Screen, so if you want, click on it! 

That's all for now, for more info of what changed, check the changelog inside the game. And remember: Only send me a Logfile if you have a crash, and only send me the last one (the one without numbers init usually is the last one godot made).
