8bit-relay
What is it?
8bit-relay is a simple relay override for the revamped 8-Bit Realm. It adds a bit of color to the locations so they match the Score indicator in KoL's default character pane, it adds an informational pane that tells you how your relevant stats compare to the maximum values needed for each location to maximize point gains, and it adds an obvious indicator for which zone is currently receiving a bonus.
Why?
Recently, the 8-Bit Realm was reworked to include 4 separate locations. Each location allows the player to increase their "Score" in the 8-Bit Realm based on specific stats with a shifting bonus to Score gains based on the number of turns spent in the 8-Bit Realm. At a Score of 10,000, a player receives a digital key - this makes the 8-Bit Realm mandatory in most ascensions. The only indicator of which location has the bonus to point gain in default KoL is super subtle - the color of your Score value in the character pane. The goal here was to make the bonus more obvious and display information about maximizing the relevant stats for each location.
Known Issues
The image/link for the Shadow Rift in the 8-Bit Realm from the current world event overlaps the right side of the cheatsheet - functionality isn't impacted, it just looks a little silly. If you notice any other issues, feel free to post here or on the script's GitHub issues page.
Compatibility
This will conflict with any other relay override script that affects the new 8-Bit Realm. If you use an ancient version of Internet Explorer, you might run into an issue with some CSS styling.
