Tuesday JS continues to improve, and the new release has the ability to add conditions to display "art" elements. so you can diversify scenes without creating new scenes and create even more content to unlock.

Now, by default, the "autosave" function will be disabled in the project, it affects the values of variables, which can spoil the result during development. Therefore, if you want to use autosave in your project, then you will need to enable it yourself in the project settings.

Two new settings "console mod" and "end text cursor" have been added to the text panel settings. Console mod adds automatic scrolling to the text pane if it goes beyond the text pane.

end text cursor adds an image at the end of the text (analogue click-to-continue). It marks the end of a dialogue or phrase, very common element in Visual Novel and Kinect Novel. it can be both gif-animation and raster graphics. Optionally, you can set the size of this element and the CSS style.

Good news for those with graphics issues. Tuesday JS is now adapted to use ASCII graphics.
ASCII ART is an image made up of text characters. A very common art form in the 80s and during the days of BBS networks or FidoNet.
For ASCII ART in web browser use, I recommend using mono fonts such as "Lucida Console, Monospace" or "Courier New, Monospace".

A new ASCII Art Paint tool has been added to the toolbox combining a graphical editor and an image to text converter.

You can add a bitmap of the image to be displayed on the background of the canvas so that you can choose the appropriate size for converting the image and use it as a template for manual editing.

You can use .txt text files for save images or the clipboard buffer for for quick addition of text images. There is a quick copy button and a simple text editor for this.
