HOLY FUCK I REPRODUCED THE LOST DATA BUG.

So, I mentioned how Téa's and Kelly's flowcharts had become corrupted and were no longer saving properly. I FUCKING FIGURED IT OUT. The flowchart data saver was having conflict with any object in the game with the same name, even if that object was not a flowchart or had contained any variables. This actually allows me to repair multiple flowcharts and characters, including Mara, whose data also broke sometime 1 or 2 years ago.

Woooo i am so relieved to have traced this.

Now, if you're my Subscriber, here's what you need to do. RETAIN any save data from BEFORE v3.99 F08. Your Kelly data is still in there and I think recoverable, but not if you save over it. If you save over it, it's gone for good, and you'll have to do all the Kelly stuff over again before you can play with her.
