- Nodes to alter traits, action points (only in combat), and PC/monster names
- Node to create a new level 1 PC with a specified race, name, graphic, hp, sp, basic stats; custom graphics supported too

- If context node can now check if the party is in a specific boat/horse as opposed to any boat/horse
- Rearrange alchemy code a little to fix a possible situation with two-ingredient potions where you only have one of the first ingredient - instead of removing the second ingredient, it would have removed the next item in your inventory

- It's now possible to affect weapon poison, martyr's shield, acid, and life detection from a special node
- Affect nodes now always take resistances into account when harming, but never when helping

- Correctly imported from older save files

- Option to not change location when reuniting
- If you reunite in a different town than you started, you are returned to the town you split from

- Damage node no longer allows setting pic to 1 to damage active PC in combat
- Damage node now accepts a sound to accompany the damage
- Damage node now works on monsters
- All affect nodes that can work on monsters no longer get the monster to affect from ex2a - instead, they use the currently selected target
The default target selected when a special node chain begins execution has changed.
- When called in certain contexts (kill/see monster, monster special ability), the monster that triggered the node is the default target.
- In the use/target space contexts, if there's a monster on the space, it's selected as the default target.
- If neither of the above hold and the game is in combat mode, the currently active PC is selected
- Otherwise the previous behavour is used - if the party is split, select the sole PC, otherwise select the whole party.
