Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words :)
And just so you know, even though I didn't respond to your old post, I read that as well and took what you said under serious consideration, as I'm sure you saw while playing!

I still need to update this thread, but in the meantime, feel free to join the Discord! The doc links are generally up to date there.
There are no plans to include any feature like that, but link trading and battling are functional!

UPDATE
v2.0.1 is up! This version fixes several bugs that popped up in the last week (including the game crashing ones), as well as adjusting a few other minor things (the changelog can be found with the download). Notably, the miner in Sandbox Mode will only give evolution stones, so the mining patch that's been going around should no longer be needed.
