Update: LitScript Length

As our community grows, so does our arsenal of LitScript Indicators. Whilst we had thought 10,000 characters would be more than enough, some of our top authors were looking for a bit more room to flex their creativity, we are looking at you Vik. We have upped this hard limit.

Update: Grid Layer

Another simple quality of life improvement, the Grid Layer can now be configured to disable just horizontal or vertical lines.

Update: Various Fixes

We are starting to get into the minutiae now, but this update includes a number of fixes to minor niggling issues. See the full changelog in-app.
