Do the taboo patches mess with coding? (Sorry. I'm not very knowledgable with this stuff lol)
They add strings that are text to the game and he probably has plugins to detect change to the compiled build, thats why it breaks. There was a moment the crystal informs you that rocks may fall on your head if you're using mods, not sure if its true, but the gamn damn sure bugs. As far as i can tell he cant detect if you edited your status.

Diana gives it to you when you go to the library in the newest patch. Which allows you to sell your talismans by calling her

The only purpose of that file is to circumvent Patreon's rules. The game is designed to look for that file and replace a select few strings. And yes, the game throws up a disclaimer that it's been manipulated, but once again, it's to keep Patreon off his back. There are, realisticly speaking, no risks involved in modifying that file, and it will definately not give you some random bugs.

I see, thanks. I'll just start from scratch without it then. It's unfortunate, but not a major deal.

It shouldn't have. But then again, there hasn't been complainings from people that didnt use mods

I can read what the newest release is but the last update I have played is v44081 it is not in the changelog list so why not? but there is a mention on here of v46082 I need to know before I can update to the latest version.
Every update is about three sex scene, one page, about two new location and some nonsex animation. Update usually have about 2% of game.
Than if your last version is v44, than in v48 you can expcet probably 6 sex scene, 2 pages, 4 location and 4% of game.

So it seems like I'm experiencing a bug after updating to v48091, after receiving the adventurer outfit and trying to leave the library, it says failed to load img/characters/$Bee.png. Is there something that I missed?

Yeah, I never use the installable mod menu's. All I do is use taboo patches and saveeditonline once or twice to give myself an extra few rock bombs or the plants because it can be kind of tedious to hunt for some items over and over again. I never do any egregious cheating even in single player games. So, it's just a shame that even minor messing around for convenience sake causes the game to break.
There are several checks in the game for counts/amounts of various items, such as containers, rock bombs, money, etc.

That way, the game mechanics from the dev perspective can be predictable. As an example, some if/else loop could be like this: (if money < 100; elif < 1000, elif < 15000, elif < game.CurrentCap).

Production, commercial software would likely account for such wacky scenarios, probably even throw a message up saying "Hey, contact your support rep, something is fishy here...". This scenario is different in that the game does not HAVE to provide for that extra money/container/bomb/whatever, as it should not be obtainable by the player.

No game producer/coder is responsible for cheating actions taken by a player. If they choose to confine certain variables for play, or even their own amusement at the fallout of these manipulations, so be it. They are not obligated to account for whatever scenario any player can 'dream up', and therefore these errors are not the fault of the dev or the team. The cause of the 'break' is the player and their choices.
