Given recent developments on Itch, it is hard to say. I would like to release at least one more major update to the mod, ideally alongside the 1.0 version of the game. This would include the last feature you mentioned and would finish up other incomplete features as well.
Past that, the mod feels mostly complete. I am open to new ideas or changes, but that is all I have planned.
Lastly, there is a game I have been developing unrelated to the mod but with some similar ideas, which could release within the next few months. I don't have a concrete timeline yet or more to share, but it has been in development for some time now and will likely be free.
