Repeated intro
Hello everyone! Due to popular demand, an alternate control scheme for snap turning has been introduced. The old version is kept around for those of you who might not like snap turning, and would prefer to keep your controls centralized. Additionally, thumbstick interaction with the UI has been refined to not be so twitchy, and Index controllers can navigate the UI using either thumbstick or touchpad and get the expected results.

Dement changes
The option to move snap turning to the thumbstick has been added.
Reading notes and moving the map has been refined - slowed down, and will take the length of the document into consideration when determining scrolling speed.
Index controllers can now use either thumbstick or touchpad to navigate the UI comfortably, including scrolling maps and notes.* (Note 1)
Fixed a bug where going backwards in the very sunken upstairs of the police station would cause the building to seemingly unsink.* (Note 2)
Added save rooms to the Wolfvale gas station bathroom and grocery store backrooms.* (Note 3)
Fixed a crash that could occur in Wolfvale involving Praesidium squads.
Changed it so if you attack a Praesidium member in a squad, it will cause the whole squad to become hostile.
Other various smaller bug fixes and environment revisions.
Note 1 - Do know, however, Dement doesn't know the difference between your thumbstick or your touchpad. It guesses based on initial touch position - if it is inhumanly centered, it assumes the joystick is in use. If you encounter any odd behavior once or twice while using the touchpad for example, just know that you are skilled in getting the middle of the touchpad touched first. Most people won't notice this problem, but I thought I'd get that out there.
Note 2 - If you encountered this issue and saved, know that you can fix it by entering and exiting the police station armory. Additionally, you can go out the front door to Wolfvale and back in, but that unlocks the front door. Know that you'll still need to escape the station in the expected way, even if you can go out the front. Sorry for the immersion breaking glitch.
Note 3 - Though save rooms were added to two new areas, these are still technically "preview" areas that don't have anything in them currently. Soon enough they will be populated with enemies, items, and quests. The save rooms were added just to decrease the distance between the currently available ones.
As usual, if anything seems bugged or wrong, please report it in the official bug reporting thread on the discussion forums here on Steam. DO NOT BE SHY. ;)
