① Scrolling the mouse wheel now stops the campfire flames from dying down.

② The time before the cat starts nagging you now increases in proportion to the duration the fire has been burning.

Scrolling the mouse wheel now stops the campfire flames from fading.

This is intended to prevent the flames from going out while you are reading text or performing other tasks.

・Scrolling the wheel on a window that is not active will not stop the flames from fading.

・The system only checks the frequency of scrolling; the “amount” of scrolling does not matter. You do not need to consciously scroll the wheel a lot.

The time between the campfire going out and the cat waking up and meowing due to the cold now increases based on the duration of the fire.

By keeping the fire burning for 20–25 minutes without waking the cat, you can extend the time until the cat meows to about 5 minutes.

By maintaining combustion for 40 minutes or more, you can extend the time until the cat meows to a maximum of 10 minutes.

If the cat meows or the software is restarted, the extended time will be reset.

Additionally, when the “Counting Disabled Window” is active, the times mentioned above will be reduced to about one-fifth of their original duration.
