Combined Quality of Life Patch

Description
I've created more quality of life improvements than you can shake a Twirligig at!
Recently updated for compatibility with monster-adding mods.

Almost all of the features listed below have settings / toggles available in the Mods menu so you can tweak the game to your liking. This mod should always step down in favor of other mods which provide similar features, in case you'd like to use a more complex mod. Any mod incompatibilities are considered a bug, which can very likely be fixed, so please let me know about it!

This is not a "cheat mod". All of the available options should be safe to use with no lasting consequences, even online. That said, it's obviously not designed for use in speedruns either, so be good.

Features
  • Unlimited save file slots.
  • Save files can now be sorted by most recent, rather than using a fixed order.
  • Group stickers by element when the inventory is sorted.
  • Properly sort the numberless monsters (ex. Pier of the Unknown) in the bestiary.
  • Fast travel to campsites.
  • Most battle animations can be disabled, significantly speeding up combat. (A familiar option to veterans of the genre.)
  • Add a distinct "recording static" sound effect to rare bootleg monsters (shiny) in the overworld.
  • Customizable rarity of basic overworld bootleg monsters, ranging from 0.1% (default) to 0.4% (1 in 250). Static encounters (eg. rogue fusion events) should be unaffected, and when left set to "Default" the gameplay is completely unmodified.
  • High-visibility icon for monsters that haven't been recorded yet. (Purple exclamation point instead of white.)
  • Unique icons and names for roaming boss monster signals in the endgame.
  • Optional spoiler icons for other rare or secret events.
  • Remove the redundant PostBox from the Gramophone Café.
  • Optional OpenDyslexic font alternative.
  • Reduce or disable moving text effects, both shaking and waving.

Compatible with Mod Utils for its shared Settings tab, but does not require it.

If you have custom properties on your stickers, you may have to reload your save file after changing the animation settings for it to take full effect.

I have Battle Animations "Off" but Gear Shear still does the full animation, which was the move I was most looking forward to not watching.

does this disables achievements?

When downloaded, Steam says the mod is 0B and the mod doesn't work or show up in settings after resetting, changing load orders, reinstalling mods, etc. Any ideas?

Yes, it was already working with 1.8.
Freshly updated just now, as well.

Is it compatible with 1.8?
