A Cat In Time - Playable Empress [Phase 2.1]

The Empress herself joins the adventure!

And Phase 2 is Live! The Empress now not only accepts Dyes, but TWO Dyes!

With over one hundred hand-made animations, as well as custom code and functionality, The Empress has been completely transformed into its own unique playable character.

After beating the Finale of Nyakuza Metro, The Empress will appear in the Spaceship, by the Metro level select. Swap to her by talking to them.
Alternatively, you may swap at any time using the mod config menu, or any Player Swap mod.

Feel like Empress is too slow? Check the Config menu for an option to speed her up!

Special Thanks to the following users who made this possible:
Argle Bargle - original Player Swap code base.
Shararamosh - Wrote/optimized a large portion of code. Got Dyes and Online Party sync working.
UnDrew - Overall code help and guidance.
SamiSha - Inventory code help, key capture code.
Joshua21 - Claw and Bazooka Badge icons.
Bon - Provided preview images and bug testing.
Spop - Bug testing.

Note: This is only the beginning of Phase 2. I have more work starting up soon so Empress will likely be paused for the forseeable future.
But Empress would like some new coats! If you're skilled in 3D Models, Textures, or 2D Icons and would like to contribute to the mod, feel free to shoot me a message over Discord.

Some bugs you may encounter that fixes haven't been found for yet:

• Triggers don't work properly when Empress is walking on stairs. This realistically only occurs in Vanessa's Manor and Arctic Cruise. Crawl or ride your scooter when entering the trigger area to fix this.
  
• The first door to Train Rush doesn't detect the Player unless they're crawling. This is a map bug, unfortunately.
