Lightning is receiving a few quality of life changes to hitboxes and self stuns. Lightning Senbon is also the perfect jutsu to test drive the new limited pierce mechanic. Taijutsu loses the instant cast interrupt on Seismic Dash in favor of maxing out its speed factor by removing self stuns and giving it a proper move speed buff in Youthful Spring, which no longer silences or gives a % agility buff. Agility weapons rebalanced to compensate for chakra scalpel stacking. Medic changed to give an interrupt to Poison Scalpel and lowered downtime on Chakra Scalpel at the cost of having to re-buff more often. A few reverts of some changes that didn’t pan out, including making the curse seal buff stronger but keeping the long downtime, rather than it staying a weaker buff and getting a shorter cooldown.

Storages
New type of furniture that allows you to put X (Variable per furniture) amount of Items in them to store them. Some storages can only allow items of specific types eg. Refrigerators will only allow you to store Consumable (Food) items.

Some important behaviors with storages...

• Storages that are in Village maps can be accessed by Kages.
• Storages that are in Player's houses can be accessed by Co-owners.
• Storages can be viewed but not altered by players without permission to do so.
• If your item is removed from a village map by a Kage, or if you don't pay rent, your storages and all it's contents will be sent to you by Mail.

This is a very difficult feature to add because of the number of things that could go wrong, so we're rolling it out to a select number of Silver Ninja to test out for the time being.

Also added a warning for picking up items with items stored in them.

Improved Mission Tasks System

This is mainly for the Developers for now. But I've added more control over a mission's ability to set task/switch/item variables. Time Limit to missions will come in a future update. For now I've decoupled Resetting variables and taking items from being "Daily Missions". It was hardcoded previously to always reset Mission Tasks for Daily Missions and this was a tricky situation and very limiting.

Fixed bug where if you logged out after being spawned in your house and relogged in, you would be where you died.

When using /abandonhouse outside your house, you will no longer be given a prompt to abandon your house. This never worked, but the prompt still showed up.

(Developers) Fixed Village Editor not allowing Index 1 (Leaf Village) to be loaded and edited.
