Version 1.2.9.4

After several months of poking away at things, here's a large bugfix update, plus some new features for modders:

Changes / Features

• Unilaterally cancelling receiving tribute now costs you reputation.

• Per-ship AI control button.

• Removed Vlambeer Mode in the settings because I needed the vertical space.

Fixes

• Diplomacy desync fix.

• Fixed tentacle stat display bug.

• Boarders stay ready in their quarters rather than doubling up as guards.

• Prettier em dashes, making the game ready for the Exciting AI Future.

• Slightly faster tentacle performance.

• Better scroll bar and chat performance.

• Provoking an age of unrest from the industrial revolution now triggers the OutrageOverFlowException achievement.

• Better tech screen layouting.

• No longer showing that background parchment with the spider on when you're in arachnophobia mode.

• No longer showing pointless AI control button during replays.

• Medals for the recently introduced new charges now have names.

• Removed some cyrillic letters from ship files that were causing crashes on Arch Linux.

For Modders

• Data loading now deals with removes properly. You can remove things with dependencies as long as you also remove the dependencies.

• Better targeting logic for non-flying crew shooting at ships.

• Added numShots parameter for CrewType.

• Resource regen for modules using ammoRegenerationEvery, repairRegenerationEvery, coalRegenerationEvery, amd waterRegenerationEvery to specify regenerating one resource unit every x milliseconds.

• Added requiresNoCoast flag to make a city upgrade only available to non-coastal cities.

• New ConstructionName system replacing the old naming system for airships, landships, and buildings. Names can now be modded, and can be tied to specific AI personalities and heraldic charges.

Edit: Version 1.2.9.4 caused a bunch of mods to stop working. I've now released version 1.2.9.5 which should fix this problem.
