Patch v1.0.1:611 - Gurglevale Design Fix

This patch tweaks design elements in a number of Gurglevale areas to make them more in line with our overall goals - based both on our observations of players and received feedback - and includes additional fixes as well.

Gurglevale Route

• Key to Gurgling Tower now drops from the optional Grouse Tyrant boss instead of being picked up in the room connecting to Graveyard Basin.

• Saves that have already defeated the boss, but haven't picked up the key automatically get the key added to the inventory.

• Made the door underneath the optional Grouse Tyrant boss only require unlocking from the tower side.

• Replaced the Gurgling Tower Key Item Pickup near Graveyard Basin with a Pack of Cigarettes.

• All Gurgling Tower doors now require the key to be unlocked, and are unlockable from either side.

• Fixed platforming visibility to reach Sir Onion's armour set.

• Camera fix in Fungal Fields better hint at the Whiffy Lookout path when approaching from the village.

• Humoral roots have begun to grow in the Bog.

• Tweaked a couple of platforms to not be as punishing in Fungal Fields.

Demonbaron Keep

• Added new shortcuts and a key to unlock them

• Some platforms have been tweaked

• Removed a couple of Crossbow enemies

• Generally increased spawn timers for enemies

Dark Faith Enemies balancing

• Tweaked Acolyte stagger 600 -> 550, poise 600 -> 250

• Tweaked Acolyte WorldBoss health 2750 -> 2200, stagger 0 -> 600, poise 0 -> 300

• Tweaked Gimp WorldBoss health 2500 -> 2000, poise 550 -> 200

Misc:

• Refactor the code for the Control Guides (button hints in the bottom center screen) to fix a bug which caused the display to be wrong after switching input device after restoring an old control guide target.

• Fixed an issue with Handmaidens that caused certain paths to fail to become linked when traversing in a specific way
