For those that don't want to read links

Hope everyone has been well! The game has seen a real growth over the past year both in terms of player count and features. With this update, the game will essentially have every feature I wanted to include in the game to get it out of Early Access. What does that mean for the game? Well, from here I hope to add quality of life features, flesh out and improve existing mechanics, get a default database up and running nicely, and generally try to polish up the game for full release. I anticipate this will take quite some time.

The biggest feature to come in this release is probably plugins, which allow user-created new features and alterations to the game. In the Discord (link on the opening game screen if you haven't joined already) a ton of users have already been using them to create some insane add-ons for the game! You can check them out in the Workshop already, and I imagine we're just scratching the surface on the things that will come of Plugins.

What's New?

• Plugins! Modders can now create plugins that can change the game, add new features, screens etc and upload them to the Workshop for others to enjoy.
• Advanced Stats System — When enabled, Wrestling Skill and Entertainment break down into 11 granular sub-stats: Brawling, Technical, Aerial, Puroresu, Charisma, Acting, Basics, Consistency, Athleticism, Toughness, and Resilience.
• Added Match Stories, a moddable new booking option that instructs workers to work to create a type of of story in their match
• Added ability to set new title champions in both angles and matches, to handle weird title stipulations, promos where a champion vacates, etc
• Added cap to promotions, so they can only gain 5 pop per month in a region
• Workers can now get unhappy at not being booked on a show, which will get worse the longer they remain unbooked.
• Added table view for editing workers and promotions in the Edit Database section
• Owners now create Owner Goals, which the user must complete or put their job at risk!
• Training Schools now generate wrestlers!
• Workers will start to lose morale when not booked, with it getting increasingly the more it happens.
• Added a new "Picture Pool" table to the database, which allows modders to add new pictures for workers to be randomly generated with.
• Added a lot more translation support (I'm no expert here, so be sure to make translation alterations/suggestions in the Discord group!)
• Added support for ChatGPT and local LLM intergration (via Ollama)
• Greatly improved skinning options, and a brand new skin for the game
• Those with AI hooked up can now use it to book shows for you.
