Today's a good day when this appears in my output.
Progress Update 21/02/23
So I can finally put the script section into DONE. Is it perfect? Nope! Otherwise I'd list it as FINAL. But that above message tells me that there is no external errors and everyone is able to go through the game will minimal mess ups. And said mess ups are probably things like the choice dialogue being too big, but nothing that will hurt the experience too much.
*Less than an hour after I post this, I can put System Messages into DONE.
So what's next?
In essence, finalize system messages*, make a decision with those funny variables, hopefully find more in-game mess ups**, cleanup, patch it, and release!
*Not that possible to see every system message. Some are edge cases such as when loading save data fails.
**Not a priority, if I wanted the script to be FINAL I'd need to go through all of CLANNAD's text and look carefully... that would probably take 80+ hours of my life.
About Those Variables
Considering my lack of knowledge in eboot modification, here's my two choices.
This doesn't happen often in-game, and the example I gave was me taking random text excerpts. But that thing will happen a few times. Not the greatest but it's the best i got.
As per usual, I don't have an ETA. It's done when it's done.
Thank you all for your patience throughout this project. I've had a lot going on so I haven't been able to focus much on this project. But I'm not abandoning this until it's done, however long it may take.
See you soon!

About Those Variables
Considering my lack of knowledge in eboot modification, here's my two choices.
- Keep them untranslated (not ideal)
- Default the variables to the particular name.
Nagisa
Tomoya-kun, don't you feel sorry for her yelling at her like that?
Girl
Huh? Ah, sure.
Nagisa
Er... What are you doing...
Keep in mind that's the same person talking, but the variables were defaulted to Nagisa.
