Patch Notes 1.4.0
Stages
- Moved stage-specific properties out of "obj_stage_manager", into individual "stage init" scripts.
- Added the "stage_data" script which stores all data for stages, similarly to "character_data".
- "stage_data_get" now works similarly to "character_data_get", but for stages.
- Stage textures are now specified in "stage_data" instead of "obj_match_loading_screen".
- Added the function "stage_music_random_set", which picks a random stage music (with weighted chances).
- "stage_music_set" can now take an array for the arguments.
- "stage_choose_random" can now take an array of banned stages that cannot be chosen.
- Added a "foreground" array in "obj_stage_manager" that works the same as the "background" array, but draws to a higher layer.
- Added "obj_stage_animation_parent", which can be used to add custom animated objects to stages easily.
- Updated the graphics on all stages.
- Renamed some of the existing stages.
- Added a new stage "Biosphere".
- Updated the stage select screen to include the new stages.
Attacks
- General attack balance changes.
- Renamed all attacks to use the format "character + move slot + special name".
Items
- Added a new "Shotgun" item.
- "override_item_attacks" now returns the correct values.
- Items with colors that are on a character's palette will no longer recolor when you attack with them.
Fixes

- Added a confirmation pop-up for deleting replays.
- Added utility functions for drawing sprites or textures spread evenly between 4 corners ("draw_sprite_spread" and "draw_texture_spread").
- Changed the names of "CHARACTER_DATA" properties, and added a new property for the sprite shown when a character is selected.
- Added the function "player_count" to get the number of players stored in the player data more easily.
