SAVING, NEW SHIP AREAS, SHOP RE-BALANCING, AND PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS

CHANGES

Saving:
- You asked for 'saving.' I don't know what that means, but our boys in the company figured it out and crammed the entire known universe onto a VHS tape. Once you load it? Gone. The tape eats the data itself. That's not a bug, that's a feature. Storage is expensive. Side effects may include spontaneous species reassignment.
  - You can save anytime, once per round
  - You can only load on round 1
  - Save is deleted after being loaded
  - You might experience some species swap

Ship:
- Ship now contains a basement.
- You wanted a mirror. Mirrors are for bathrooms. Our engineers built the Ultimate Camera 3000 instead, it does everything a mirror does, plus things a mirror shouldn't. If it starts glowing orange, that's normal. If YOU start glowing orange, you've got about four seconds.
Shop:
- I've cut a deal with our fellow STAN and decreased store prices:
  - Skates decreased to 15
  - Spring decreased to 10
  - Spray decreased to 5 (+ 100 decals allowed now)
  - Shield increased to 75
  - And other items decreased / increased prices.
World Generation:
- Fixed world generation not using all possible templates.
- Fixed contracts not calculating the scrap & reward required
- Added slime back, as a variant to the chicken!
Optimizations:
- Increased performance on train
- Increased performance on city
- Increased performance on apartments (sadly the 3000 degree area had to go)
- Forgot to properly config LOD, so now that should work :P
- Connecting players should lag less when joining! Hopefully this fixes the "player crashes after joining with 3 other players"
Solo players:
- Increased auto respawns to 2
Linux fixes:
- Some linux versions were not properly reporting their screen size, there is a fallback now.
