Reworked Affinity System

Overview of the rework. NPCs now :

Avoid entities that they have low affinity with.
Forbid entities they have low affinity with from entering the shop(if NPC is a shopkeeper).
Look for a guard to report to(theft or murder).
Initiate battle with the player if affinity is low.
Keep track of their affinity with units per appearance. So different entities, as long as they look the same will have the same affinity with a NPC.

There are details I did not mention about the affinity system but I'll leave them for you to discover.

Dungeon

Added a new area connected to the Town with a new Rat monster along with it. The Dungeon is where criminals are teleported when caught by guards.

Thank you for reading. I'll try to push an update by the end of December.
