In case you missed the small patch updates, as of version 1.06 Piczle Cross: Rune Factory has brought some fixes, a few new features and a big change in how auto-correct works. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45194174/022efc58d23057f00adcbff3141e6cf1bd1c4b6f.jpg Firstly, and most noticably, you will now be asked if you're absolutely sure before resetting a puzzle! No more accidental resetting! Secondly, there is now a small gold star in the puzzle select screen on puzzles that have been cleared in both regular and colour nonogram variations. This is a purely cosmetic addition for those players who want to clear every puzzle both ways, and is there to provide a quick and easy reference as to which puzzles have been cleared twice, and which haven't. Even if you've previously cleared both puzzles, if you reset one of them the star will not show, so you can also quickly see which doubly cleared puzzles are in a reset state. Another new feature is in the puzzles themselves, the memo function! If you're counting out cells, you can quickly pop a memo in any cell to help you keep count. They are temporary marks that are not saved between puzzles, they just are there to help you count. They also have no effect on the clues, hints and are not intercepted by auto-correct. They really are just little visual memos you can place if you need them! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45194174/7b164e11c01bbd769b004a20459cbc5dce71922f.jpg To make a memo simply press X or middle mouse button while your cursor is over an empty cell. And finally, there's a big change in how auto-correct, and the Challenge Mode puzzles work. By popular demand, marking cells with an X is now ignored entirely by auto-correct. ONLY drawing blocks erroneously will activate auto-correct and potentially give you a time penalty in Challenge mode. You can mark Xs anywhere without fear, without getting penalised, even if you place them incorrectly, even in Challenge mode. This should make playing challenge mode a lot less stressful. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45194174/696327154fa373243f0cee06aa65fede23927a4c.jpg There is one small caveat to that, though. If you've started a game without auto-correct and then switch auto-correct on from the pause menu, the game will do a quick check of all erroneously placed blocks and Xs and correct them. You cannot do this in Challenge mode, so you won't get penalised for doing this. It's just there to help you if you're having a hard time clearing puzzles. We hope these additions and changes will help you enjoy the puzzles of Piczle Cross: Rune Factory even more!
