* CHANGELOG *

=SINCE 5.16=

+ Displays: New displays will appear when using some items on characters from the items menu. Examples include seeing the Characters' Jetpack amounts when going to give someone a jetpack, or seeing their FirstAid amount when using a Portable Medikit on them, etc.

+ New Items: Maximum EP Bonus added.

+ Energy System: The Energy-System is now available to NR. "Energy" or "EP" is basically like "MP" or "TP" in other RPGs, and gives a limit to how many times you can use your skills/special-attacks before needing to replenish it. All character skills now work on this system, characters have their own EP levels, and there are also now items for restoring EP, the "Small Energy Drink", "Large Energy Drink" and "Hyper Energy Drink".

+ Equippables: "Power Wrist" added to game. WHen equipped, your character's lifting strength and mantling strength will increase by 25%, their melee damage increases by 25%, and their non-melee damage increases by 10% for each pair worn. This item can be stackable up to 4 times.

+ Equippables: "Charm Shoes" added to game. When equipped, your character will gain a small amount of Cents[money] for every full second of controlled movement [moving foward/backwards, strafing left/right, swimming up/down, and jetpacking up/down count as "controlled movement" in this respect, but normal jumping does not]. This item can be stackable up to 4 times.

+ Equippables: "Style Shoes" added to game. When equipped, your character will gain a small amount of RANK for every full second of controlled movement [moving foward/backwards, strafing left/right, swimming up/down, and jetpacking up/down count as "controlled movement" in this respect, but normal jumping does not]. This item can be stackable up to 4 times.

+ Equippables: "Happy Shoes" added to game. When equipped, your character will gain a small amount of EXP for every full second of controlled movement [moving foward/backwards, strafing left/right, swimming up/down, and jetpacking up/down count as "controlled movement" in this respect, but normal jumping does not]. This item can be stackable up to 4 times.

+ Equippables: "ShockAb Boots" added to game. When equipped, your character will take between 15% to 20% less fall-damage for each pair worn. This item can be stackable up to 4 times.

+ Equippables: "Jump Boots" added to game. When equipped, your character will jump 25% higher for each pair worn. This item can be stackable up to 4 times.

+ Equippables: "Rabbit's Foot" added to game. When equipped, your character has a +12.5% chance of surviving a deathblow with 1 HP left [aka mortal-hit survivability]. This item can be stackable up to 4 times.

+ Equippables: "Nyx Gloves" added to game. When equipped, your character will take no damage from "usuable" hazards, including electrical sockets, keyscanner security damage, keypad security damage, etc. Only one of these is required to be equipped on each character for this effect, even though multiple pairs can be equipped by one character [it's just redundant to do so. :P]

+ Equippables: "Riot Shield" added to game. Riot Shields are equippable items that give 20% resistance to Metal-based attacks [basically Shotgun pellets and other bullets] and additonally decrease Armor deterioration by 10% [your AP takes 10% less damage from all attacks after most things are factored, allowing armor to last a little longer]. This item can be stackable up to four times.

+ Skills/Buffs: "PK Shield" Buff is more complete and not half-assed anymore. Paula can also now actually use it on other characters/herself in the form of the "Psychokenetic Shield" skill in her skills submenu. A quadra of crystals also appears briefly on the player's display when the PK Shield takes a Mystical-based hit, like in Mother 3. It also has a 20% chance of deflecting a mystical-protectile away towards enemies.

+ Skills/Buffs: Cybanis has a new skill in his skills submenu: "Bloodlusting". It increases Critical Hit Rate% by 1/4 the base amount, plus an additional 20.25% to 95% depending on both the levels of Cybanis and the character affected by the buff [although Cybanis will use his own level both times if he's affected by the buff].

+ Bugfix: Characters now have their Drown-Damage-Ratios saved over between switching, preventing the player from cheating out of high damage intervals on a character from switching from and back to a drowning character.

+ Meter Displays: Air and Mantle Meters now also show the number of seconds the character have remaining over top of the meter.

+ ATMs: All ATM Money-Transfers are extended from a maximum of $50,000 to $5,000,000 each.
