than to actually advance the FX package meaningfully.

Well... I did already pretty much completed 50% of the new dynamic coronas system, and it has been fairly tested and such, so there's that.
But the time for experimentation is mostly over, and I have set the end of this month as the deadline to complete this new package, and I already wrote a roadmap for myself with most of the features planned, in order to start the actual map in October.
Although I am already having more fun with this little package than I imagine myself to actually have doing the map itself (almost makes me want to go beyond that and do something else more elaborated), but scope creep is the biggest enemy of deadlines, so I will leave all the remaining ideas I have or might have for another time (maybe another package, or maybe as part of a whole mod, I don't know...).
