 # The Modding Tree changelog:
 
 ### v2.2.1 - 11/7/20
+- Added a small highlight to layers you can meaningfully prestige on.
+- Added passiveGeneration and autoPrestige features to standardize prestige automation. (The old ways still work, but the new ones work better with other things)
 - Improved milestones visually a bit.
 - "best" and "total" are now only displayed if present in startData.
 - Fixed issues with things not updating visually. (Thank you to to Jacorb!)
+- Side layers and button nodes can now be highlighted.
 - Updated docs on the new tree-related features.

     If you want to keep things, determine what to keep based on `resettingLayer`, `milestones`, and such, then call `layerDataReset(layer, keep)`, where `layer` is this layer, and `keep` is an array of the names of things to keep. It can include things like "points", "best", "total" (for this layer's prestige currency), "upgrades",  any unique variables like "generatorPower", etc. If you want to only keep specific upgrades or something like that, save them in a separate variable, then call `layerDataReset`, and then set `player[this.layer].upgrades` to the saved upgrades.
 
-- update(diff): **optional**. This function is called every game tick. Use it for any passive resource production or time-based things. `diff` is the time since the last tick. Suggestion: use `addPoints(layer, gain)` when generating points to automatically update the best and total amounts.

Returns how many of the base currency you need to get to the next point. `canMax` is an optional variable used with Static-ish layers to differentiate between if it's looking for the first point you can reset at, or the requirement for any gain at all (Supporting both is good). You can also call `getNextAt(this.layer, canMax=false, useType = "static")` or similar to calculate what your next at would be under another prestige type (provided you have all of the required features in the layer).
