  • A saved rank card or benchmark screenshot can now be shown in File Explorer. The rank card's "Saved to" line and the screenshot's "Success - Saved to" notice each end in Show in folder, which opens Explorer with the picture selected (the notice now stays 15 seconds so a keyboard can reach it). Only a picture SVC itself saved in this run can be opened. If the file has been moved or deleted, its folder opens instead and the line says "File not found, see folder where it was last"; if the folder is gone too, it says "That file is not there any more."

  • Both exports now copy the picture to the clipboard. Exporting a rank card or a benchmark screenshot saves the file as before and also puts the picture on the clipboard (as a PNG and as a bitmap, so it pastes into Discord, Paint and Word); the saved line and the toast end with "Copied to clipboard", or "Not copied to clipboard" if it did not work. A save that fails copies nothing, and the card's line now says why it failed. Settings > Pictures and screenshots has a "Copy to clipboard" switch (on by default) to stop it.

  • The You marker no longer strikes through a count. When the marker sits exactly on a rung, that rung's count rises 8 px clear of the marker dot and the marker's tick starts above it; a marker between two rungs is drawn as before.

  • A run you paused is now marked. On the Session chart it wears a small hollow ring, on the Scenario chart its dot is hollow, and on the Session run list it carries a "paused" chip; hovering says how long you paused and how long the run took start to finish. The Session's Runs card counts them. A paused run still counts in every figure, exactly as before.

  • SVC now measures with V6 by default. Your levels, %, trends and spread are read from hits per second of active play (pauses taken out), scaled to each scenario's score range, instead of from the score alone. Where a scenario's score is its hit count nothing moves. Personal bests, benchmark ranks and every run chart still show your real scores. If you had chosen a version in Settings > Advanced, you stay on it; V5 is still in the list. V6's tag in Settings now reads "current".

  • You can now star a scenario. A star sits on every row of the Scenario list (and on its "Scenarios to play" and "not in this window" rows) and beside Play on an opened scenario; one press stars, one unstars, nothing asks. A new Favourites chip on the list shows only your starred scenarios, including ones with no runs in the chosen window, listed without figures; it stays on while SVC is open. In the Lab your starred scenarios come first in every scenario picker (each row has its star), and Runs per block groups them under "Favourites". A favourite is only a mark: no figure changes.

  • Play now says when KovaaK's will have to download the scenario first. If a scenario is in neither Local Scenarios nor Steam's workshop cache, hovering its Play says so, and pressing Play adds the sentence to the usual toast, which leaves after 3 seconds and goes into the notification tray. A scenario found in the workshop cache gets the regular "was asked to open" toast. If KovaaK's scenario folder cannot be found, Play says that instead. On a benchmark, a scenario that is not on this PC carries a muted "Not on this PC" after its Play, and Info adds "N of M scenarios are not on this PC". Settings shows how many scenarios sit in Local Scenarios, with a line that a large folder slows KovaaK's start. Read only: SVC still sends nothing and writes nothing.

  • A notification tray: a small round button in the bottom-right corner keeps every notification. Press it and a box opens upward with the newest at the top, five rows visible and the rest a scroll away; each has an "o" (filled while unread) and the time it appeared. When a notification leaves the screen the button pulses once. "Clear all" asks first. The list lives only while SVC is open.

  • The rank card window is one centred column: the card, the note, then Close and Export rank card (the one filled button, last), and a line under the buttons that names the folder the picture went to (Saved to Pictures\SVC · file.png for the default folder, the folder's name for one you chose). It sits over a soft glow in the rank's colour that the page shows through, and it leaves the window's title bar usable. When Export cannot export it now stays reachable by keyboard, and its reason shows on hover and on focus (the tip used to open underneath the window, so it was never seen); a tip opened inside a dialog now shows above it too.

  • The benchmark screenshot carries the SVC mark at the right of its legend row (one row lower on a narrow sheet, which grows 78 px), and its toast says where it went: Success - Saved to Pictures\SVC. A failed save says Failed to save to , or Failed to save and the reason when no folder is known (wording to be confirmed; there is no "Report issue here" link yet).

  • An empty open folder now says "Folder is empty, click Here to start adding benchmarks.", and Here is a real button that opens that folder's "Add to this folder" box. After you Save, focus moves to the folder's own row.

  • A method trial can now count each scenario at its own cm/360. Tick "Set a cm/360 for each scenario" in the trial designer's fold and each scenario gets a field, filled with the cm/360 you have played it at most. A run at another cm/360 than its scenario's is left out of every figure, and the trial says which scenario needs which cm/360 as soon as you play it wrong; the Today line lists each scenario's cm/360 to set in KovaaK's. Leave the fields equal and the trial is exactly as before.

  • A method trial can now be about block length: "Runs per block: 3 vs 5". Pick two blocked ways of practising (or "BN — Blocked, a count of your own" for any whole number from 1 up, no upper limit) and the trial says so: its sentence and its verdict read "3 in a row" and "5 in a row" instead of B3 and B5, under a "Runs per block" tag. Suggest from my blocks (a press, under the arms) reads your Runs per block estimate with the reading you chose and offers a pair that brackets it; Use fills the two arms, nothing is saved until Start. Start keeps a snapshot of that estimate with the trial, and its reading sets the estimate beside the verdict ("3 in a row is shorter than your blocks estimate of about 4 in a row", or "anything from 3 to 5 in a row looks fine"). Trials started before this build read as they always did. The press costs one Runs-per-block estimate over every scenario: about 25 ms (reading 1) and 45 ms (reading 2) on a synthetic 11,500-run corpus of 40 scenarios.
