New Game Plus Tool

This tool will allow you to change the difficulty (including Expert/No Future on a regular new game,
or to change to No Future on an existing save), set the new game plus flag, set your lucre to zero,
and remove sections of your inventory to increase the challenge or to get a cleaner start on a new game plus. 

Note: Be careful with the new v1.1.0 game patch. There are reports that it can cause inventory corruption when
changing difficulties in the options menu. All the more reason to use this tool to do it for you. It seems a v1.1.1
patch is planned to fix this. Some mod creators may be holding off on updates until it's released.

Update: v1.1.1 patch was released 2020/11/04 and fixed a lot of bugs. If you haven't updated, you should do so.

v1.6 Update:

  - Added Li'l Cactus options:

    - Reset finding the first Li'l Cactus on Golden Road
    - Reset finding Li'l Cactus #2-50
    - Set that you've found the first Li'l Cactus on Golden Road (enables Li'l Cactus to be found elsewhere)

v1.5 Update:

  - Improved the UI responsiveness, and general code refinements and stability improvements.

v1.4 Update:

- Added the Beginner difficulty which was missing. Not that anyone ever used it.

v1.3 Update:

- Added an auto-refresh option (default on), so you don't get an annoying dialog popup everytime your savefile changes.
- Adjusted the maximum Playtime. The game can save over 1,000 hours, but it resets it to 999:59:59 when you load it.
- Fixed Playtime missing from changes list.
- Improved the UI responsiveness, and general code refinements and stability improvements.

v1.2 Update:

- Added Playtime option. You can change it manually, or reset it.

v1.1 Update:

- Added "Game Clear" and "Anise Defeated" flags. Each represents a star on your save file.
    If you set them both, you can start a new game plus from that save regardless of actual game progress.

- Improved the UI responsiveness, and general code refinements and stability improvements.

Details:

This tool will allow you to select any difficult, regardless of whether it's a new game plus or a regular save.
The Expert/No Future difficulties won't display in the Options Menu on a regular save, but it's still enabled.

If you select No Future you'll notice the text in the save file menu will change to red once you resave in game.
If you want it to display properly in the Options Menu, select New Game Plus in the tool to turn it into a
proper New Game Plus save file. If you set the New Game Plus flag and your difficulty is not No Future, the text
in the save file menu will turn yellow once you resave.

There are several groups of checkboxes with all the different types of items and equipment per character.
Select the type of items, and the type of equipment per character to remove. There's also an option to zero your lucre.
There is no option to remove seeds since it's tied to the seed result table, and it's a complex set of data that
isn't fully understood. If you don't want your seeds, just sell them for pocket change. They're pretty worthless.

Note: If options are greyed out when loading your save, it's because you're using a pre-v1.1.0 save. To access
all options you'll need to resave your game to update the save file to v1.1.0.

How it works:

The programs reads in and rewrites the entire inventory, making sure to update the main inventory (InventoryListInfo)
and the item ring (InRingCommandList). If the difficulty struct (OptionInfo) exists in the save file it's replaced,
if not, it's added to where it should be (right before the PlanterInfo struct). The new game plus flag is updated
if it exists, and if not, it's added to the list of basic save file flags under "/Script/GameProject.G00SaveDataBase".
