[*] Optimized the name of some checkpoints in certain levels. [*] Optimized how checkpoints record the position and order of the Witch Cards. [*] Increased the probability of triggering the positive effects of the Wheel of Fate. After triggering a negative effect, the next one will be a positive effect.
