JPDE2 EP06 - The Ties That Bind

EDIT2: Uploaded new versions with battle fixes. Remember to load from a file started in EP05 and to use the verUPDATE function in the Scroll Menu.
EDIT: Fixed versions uploaded! Now using the verUPDATE button won't crash your game :'D

This episode is special for a number of reasons.

The first is the period as Rooster Teeth, the parent company of RWBY, is shutting down after twenty-one years.

I have been critical in the past of the company, in the way they handled their properties and workers, and in the writing of the series but: without RoosterTeeth, there's no RWBY; without RWBY, there's no JPDE; without JPDE, there's no current developer me. The company, its creators and creations have been an important part of many people's lives for more than two decades so all I can say is: thank you, Rooster Teeth. For the good, the bad and the RWBY alike.

The second is the content of it. Episode 06 focuses heavily on Ruby Rose and on certain themes which I couldn't help but go deeper into once I realized what I had been writing... With results that some people may love, some may absolutely hate: a scene in particular may be the most controversial thing I've ever written for the RWBY fandom at large as it goes to touch what may be something akin to the soul of the entire series... But it just made sense for the character's arc so I couldn't avoid it. Thus, it's here.

Third, it's because I found a way so that you don't need to start a new save file every episode! From no on, you'll just need to use the verUPDATE function in the Scroll Menu to fix any deprecated code in your older save-file! IF YOU'RE STARTING A NEW SAVE FILE IN EPISODE 06, YOU DON'T NEED TO USE IT!

[WARNING: this only works on new save files starting from Episode 05]

[WARNING2: USE IT ONLY ONCE ON EACH SAVE FILE!]

Please, as always, report any bugs or crashes in the Community Discord Server, as that's the most immediate way to get in touch with the dev team... And now, enjoy.
