==== Description ====

The patch speeds up the sword tech gauge and makes possible to select any sword
tech level without significant delay. After the sword tech level is selected, 
the time of the ready stance of the character is updated accordingly. The
character will quietly charge up the sword tech level and the player is free to
give commands to the party.

This version preserves the retort functionality.
