So long without an update, so much testing, and now I come to you with a bit of an emo rant...

It feels like every time I try with this thing, it just changes the rules and doesn't tell me. this is all the documentation I have to work with: https://himeworks.com/2016/01/placeholder-states/ and they don't tell me what to do in case I need to add multiple changes. It feels like I'm stuck in a hopeless loop. Tempted to just rip this placeholder plugin out and just use the overriding states plugin. I've been googling and youtubing what to do, and nobody, N O B O D Y knows a damn thing about this plugin. The mod author's responses are from 2016, EIGHT YEARS AGO.

I actually tried seeing if there was anything on youtube about it, and my search results were... only one video talking about the plugin and then the algorithm started throwing fallout 4 videos at me. BITCH IF I WANTED FALLOUT 4 I WOULD HAVE SEARCHED FALLOUT 4! TELL ME ABOUT THIS PLUGIN YOU WASTE OF BANDWIDTH!

I thought I had everything fixed, and was so sure I ended up breaking Princess Rescue. Forcing me to rip the plugin out and rely solely on Yanfly's AI Core and Overriding States. Months of hard work just up in smoke, because ASSHOLE couldn't tell you "Oh btw, you can't assign more than one placeholder to your state, teehee!" 

I have a KinkyDungeon parts stream to do today, and I should not be starting my day feeling like my brain is bleeding from sheer frustration, but here we are.

When I last talked about this stuff, I quoted the bible. I quoted John 3:38 "the truth will make you free indeed." Welp, now I'm quoting a new passage: Matthew 5:30 "And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to depart into hell. " I've come to the conclusion that there is only one possible course of action: to rip the vestigial plugin out. I'm done with this cycle of no progress. Placeholder_states is only holding not only Princess Rescue back, but is holding Sala's Escape back, and that is UNACCEPTABLE! We are coming up on a year since release with no updates; I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore.

Placeholder_states, you're fired! Pack up your desk and get out of my building in five minutes or I'm telling Security to shoot you on sight.
