What's changed in Chainsmoker with each update.
Improved
6 changes-
CHAINSMOKE UI - Added "select all" and "deselect all" buttons.

SPLICE.sys UI - Hovering over a fused cig shows its effects on the shelf.
-
Time travel - Treated like a real start of day. Properly resets day state for "Start of day" triggers, daily allowance, pack prices, etc.
-
LP - New diminishing returns curve on LP so a run that goes into the nonillions doesn't cause an integer overflow lol.
-
Hand UX - More responsive and intuitive interaction when selecting cards from hand.
-
Ball Pit unlock - Counts any cig with "Buzz Ball" in the name and is no longer a hidden reward as it's required to complete the Loosies carton.
