(Top is 1.2.1, bottom is 1.1, and spoilers (that have already been spoiled in this thread, but hey).)
I think a lot of versions have not been fixed because there aren't anymore the translation teams and I except if one of the active devs know enough the language to fix himself...

More serious is the "se" instead of a "ce" somewhere in the Hanako Route. (the only route no enough corrected I think : The dialogues of the bad end of Hanako when she got a nervous breakdown does not use the correct fonts.)
Other than that, I don't think I've seen mistakes.

The upkeep of the translations is responsibility of the translators. If they don't keep up with the updates, 4LS doesn't do it for them.

Shizune and Lilly are cousins ​​through their mothers (who are sisters), not their fathers (who aren't brothers). (otherwise they would have the same surname)

No. Shizune's mother and Lilly's father are siblings. (Sorry: the devs do prefer that correct answers are given here. :) )

Families are so complicated...hold that they practice intensive intermarriage and are all siblings, it's more simple.

When I read that I was confused especially considering that Lilly's mother is Scottish, so does that make Shizune part Scottish, but then I read the next few posts.

If Shizune's mother and Lilly's father are siblings, then where is Shizune's mother? I am assuming deceased considering I don't remember her being mentioned in the virtual novel.

It's one of those mysteries the developers have been completely tight-lipped on.

I think she is dead. (Or the Hakamichi/Satou are even worse than we think already and Shizune's Mother and Jigoro divorced and she left for Scotland, but I doubt it)

If that's what you think please talk about it in another topic. This one is exclusively for the devs to answer questions (or for others to provide links to answers the devs already gave in other threads).
The answer to that question is that there isn't one. The fate of Shizune's mother has not been revealed in either the VN or any subsequent dev posts.

Is there an official map of Yamaku and the surrounding area, or a rough description on paper? I never could figure out where everything was in relation to each other, so I just kinda guessed the classes were smushed between the Dorms and nursing building, the dorms further being flanked by the road, while the nursing building was next to Rin's Forest.

The nurse is in the Auxiliary building which is next to the main building with the classrooms. That much is said in the VN, and I think it even mentions a connection between the two at one point. Beyond that nothing has been made available by the devs yet.

We had a few floorplans and maps sketched out back when, but considering that they had such notes as "here be dragons" on them I'd say that no, no OFFICIAL maps of Yamaku and its environs exist. And we sorta like it that way.It's not like Yamaku has its personal dimensional distortions or anything.

What kind of blindness has Lilly ? congenital form of cataract ? saw his eyes (deep blue) I would say that the problem comes from her eyes but I'm not sure.
