Happy new year everyone! I'm back with a progress report:

1) Destructible objects have been expanded to alter room states to affect conditional objects.
2) Updated the NPC pathfinding with navigation nodes. It helps control how many NPCs take the same route.

all, this is a Fundraising effort in support of a friend & member of my coding community who didn't have such a great Christmas, and an opportunity to start the New Year off right! So, feel free to be generous while enjoying a number of great games!
