Thanks - I always suspected something was going on with Parley. That will narrow it down.
1,2, and 3 I will take some time this week to check out and try to fix.
4 is something I thought I fixed specifically, but will take another look.
5 is strange, although I suspect its counter may be faulty somehow.
6 is a small oopsie, and I'll check it out.
I wanted to implement using more than one essence for a while, but I had some trouble with the nuts and bolts of making it work. I will add that to potential QOL features/changes.
