This update aims to improve the development cycle of future custom items by speeding up testing turnaround, making adjustments in certain commands to improve their overall usability. This update also addresses numerous concerns with some Sampler Pack items' usability, and updates some item behaviour to better match the currently released base game version.

Many changes have been requested by user Ashnal. The fallback fix was found necessary thanks to user DarkyBenji. Thank you for your contributions!
