Now unless I've forgotten something (,_,) the new files should be ready for upload. In the imminent patches, we've got:
-) Cid's LV.4 Limit Sidequest re-done
-) Tifa's Lv.4 Limit sidequest re-done
-) Junon Leagues reinstated (3 opponents, 6 fights per bracket, 2 brackets currently)
-) Enemy item lists revised & a spreadsheet made by SirBlackMage lists every enemy's drops, morphs, steals, etc.
-) Numerous bug fixes
-) Vincent's Ultimate Weapon has been set up as Ignore Defence with a high crit%, dropped the Yoshiyuki effect from it
-) Revisions to Dark Cave bosses, particularly Amalgam
-) You can now reach the round guy
Following this patch, Arrange Mode and optional Aeris is going to be the next objective. Cloud's Lv.4 Limit event is also being worked on to reinstate the original flashback to work alongside Junon Leagues; at the moment, only the Midgal portion of it plays while I work out the scripts. The battle now has Game Over disabled and will warp the player back to the Shinra Basement if they need to back out of it.
Did it a while ago? It was all outdated so that could explain it. It won't make me miss anything though? In where is the thing it shows ribbons and the starlight phone for Cait Sith as master tonberry morphs. Is it random or is it innaccurate?
Edit: I morphed one and got a ribbon, killed another and got the starlight phone.
Edit 2: Are the Weapon drops from the crater enemies guaranteed? I have killed 2 iron golems and got no pile banger, and 2 behemoths no behemoth horn, is that intended?
Edit 3: I haven't obtained a mystile yet nor do i see it in any of the documents, was it remover or renamed? Or is it just hiding from me?
I've ran into a bit of a snag: after answering Don Corneo's question and getting thrown into the sewers, Tifa and Aeris land, but Cloud hasn't come down yet. I can see the bottom of his little brown shoe just barely at the top of the screen but it doesn't look like he's coming down anytime soon.

Barret and Tifa are mostly available throughout the game, and they both have extra SP coming from decisions that affect the Gold Saucer date, so I think both they and maybe Aeris have the best shot at keeping up with him for SP assuming they're used as active party members on a regular basis. It's characters who join later who're maybe going to be behind, or if players do what I do and keep mixing up their party compositions.
I could adjust Cloud's reqs slightly, given that's he usually present. There's a little fine-tuning needed on Clod; I think he'll be fine once the Armour problem with defence has been sorted out.
Killing blow doesn't net a boost gain in SP; only being an active party member does.
I could maybe try adjusting Cloud's EXP arc as well so he needs a bit more.
I'm looking to get most of the work done before Christmas, so within the next few weeks.
This is bothering me a bit, too. I did a bit of grinding to get to level 2 magic sooner and experiment with morphing, and this has resulted in Cloud being rank 5 while everyone else is rank 3 just as I've gotten to Nibelheim on disc 1.
Everyone is higher level than they really should be, but Cloud is so far ahead that he's outshining everyone else in every role. If I use Vincent and Cid when I get access to them so I can boost their ranks, Cloud will end up even further ahead.
Just wrapped up disc 2. My ranks are higher than what they were on my last playthrough at this point (Cloud is currently max, everyone else is rank 6). The disc 2 end bosses were also shorter this time around. The length of the Turks and Hojo boss fights felt good, while Diamond Weapon and Proud Clod felt a little on the short side (especially the latter, it died before using a single Mako Cannon). Overall I'm enjoying the changes to the rank up system, the character stats feel much better than before. Though one pet peeve of mine is how far ahead Cloud is compared to everyone else. It makes sense since he's always in the party, but I wouldn't mind if his SP requirements were a little higher than the other party members.
Sounds like Snows have a bad AI script; I'll check that they're using the correct local vars.
Cid's sidequest was disabled while I re-do it; the script for it is actually finished now, and you'll be talking to a technician round the back who is repairing the Tiny Bronco. You will need to have Cid in the party (preferably leading the party) to trigger and complete it. The one I made with the kid for 1.4 didn't click for me, and I wasn't happy with it + there was a softlock with positioning that could happen.
Curator is a (very) optional super-boss. I think the best time to tackle him is during the Dark Cave sidequest on Disc 3.
I could change the Materia colour from it's pale blue to make it more noticeable; maybe purple and slightly larger.
I'll look for instances where confusion is multi-target and make it single target (and maybe restrict it to enemies that appear only once in a formation) though Bad Breath will be left multi-target if that's what it was.
The line for activating the cages has always been a bit tricky. I'll see about changing it in some way, maybe using an invisible field model with a talk script instead of whatever it is they're using (probably an event line).
Added Cut should still be where it is. In terms of issues, let me know how you're finding enemy strength and the length of boss/random battles.
It's a mistake I made with AI and Level; your best bet is to use a Sneak Glove, as the odds will be too low for steals to be successful without it. I'll work on patching this tonight temporarily until I've implemented a more permanent solution.

What I've done here is revised the item lists for Crater enemies. The drop rate on Weapon A is higher, and Weapon B is acquired through Morphing (still planning an AI solution for this); each enemy has a 100% steal that is NOT one of the weapons, just an item (X-Potion for instance).
I'm quite close to a big update for the mod that'll bring it closer to completion. I've rescripted some of the Lv.4 Limit sidequests (Cid, Cloud, and Aeris; still got Tifa & Yuffie Lv.4s to do) and I'm going to make a new Junon Leagues on the unused cargo ship field.
Arrange Mode is creeping along but the priority is getting the base mod completely optimised before committing to it. There's been problems plaguing the mod for a long time and it's time to get rid of them >:I
The event you've found is not related to the safe, but there is some correlation to the monster that's inside the safe; its death text is different for each form and there's a purpose to that.
There must be something after Junon that's disabling it. I found a few of these in places like Cosmo Canyon (and the cargo ship I think) where it would deactivate the battle at certain points and then reactivate it when you're due to return to the world map...provided Yuffie isn't recruited.
There must be another one somewhere.
No matter how hard I try, I cannot get Ziegfried to show up. I've looked in every forested area I could find. Is it disabled beyond a certain point?
The kills and uses needed to unlock them were adjusted, so was the HP damage needed to fill gauges for each character. Should be faster to learn Limits.

Hmm, something might be wrong then; a dialogue is supposed to start when talking to it.
