Moonlight Peaks Patch 1.0.4 Breakdown: Storage Overhaul & Wine Economy Balance

Overview of Patch 1.0.4 Changes
The developers at Little Chicken Game Company rolled out Hotfix Patch 1.0.4, addressing several major community requests regarding early storage management, wine maker outputs, and romance quest progression.
1. Universal Storage Chest Cost Reduction
Crafting universal chests previously required 25 Hardwood Planks and 10 Iron Bars, creating a severe bottleneck during the first 20 in-game nights. Under Patch 1.0.4:
- Wood Refiner recipe cost: reduced from 25 to 15 Hardwood Planks.
- Iron requirement: reduced from 10 to 4 Smelted Iron Bars.
- Storage capacity: increased from 24 to 32 slots per chest tier.
2. Winery Profit & Aging Balance
Fermenting Aged Red Wine from Blood Grapes previously yielded 220 Coins in 3 in-game days. The new balance update increases the base price to 280 Coins while reducing aging time to 2.5 days, cementing the Winery loop as the premier mid-game profit strategy.

3. NPC Romance Trigger Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue where Noel and Sabrina's 3-Heart conversational triggers failed to initiate during rainy nights in the Town Square. All 24 romanceable candidates now consistently advance their event flags regardless of active weather states.
