I cannot tell what just happened. Dev communication requested

[James with the Games]

I've been playing this for the last few days and something weird happened. Cause I chose Ralph at first and had Denira as my second party member, but I was for some reason getting a full heal at the end of every fight for free!

This was very nice since even though it looks like you spent a VERY large chunk of time on this game's battle system, this is one of the RPGMaker systems where they like to beat characters within inches of their lives on a frequent basis, and it shows in this game later on.

However after beating the D rank boss all of a sudden there's no more free healing, and the healing the doc doles out is FAR more expensive than what I can possibly earn trying to obtain the D rank set pieces.

So then... what happened? Cause if I had a bug I kind of wish it wasn't unbugged. Or that say for each rank in the arena you go up the hospital becomes slightly cheaper, or just have a flat rate that increases each rank you go up in the arena. Cause right now its taking me over 1k AC for a full heal which requires over 4 fights at rank D, which means unless I'm lucky with the rolls I will never earn more than the hospital requires from me for healing. So a little explanation?

This is an intended gameplay mechanic that isn't explained anywhere, which I am now just realizing. You no longer heal automagically at the end of every fight once you reach the C rank.

I can remedy this by putting in notifications for the player to know that this will happen, or I could have it happen at a later rank. I put healing automagically in the first 3 ranks as a sort of training wheels.
I will also change the Hospital mechanic and simply have a set cost that is a % of your current AC to heal you fully.

Here's a preview of the new system that will be implemented in the next update at the end of the week. You can recover your HP for a set cost based on the rank you are currently in, or you can get advance heals after each battle for 20% of your AC so you aren't going back and forth between the hospital as often.

Tiny bit late, but here's an update! I hope this makes it better at first.
