Microlandia changes
Fixed high school monthly costs per student (down from $2233 to $679) as previously we had a bad interpretation of data.
Costs of building a fire station are rebalanced to be closer to real world data. Investment and monthly maintenance is higher, but the actual response dispatch cost is lower.
Finance & Insurance demand is now driven by both companies and population, as normal people also need banking and insurance, not just firms.
Some high income class people will exit the city after a certain threshold of income tax in a laffer curve fashion (Rauh & Shyu, 2024)
Census now shows an "exit poll" of the reasons why people leave the city
Stats UI improvements: Now there's categories of stats, instead of a colossal dropdown of all stats in no particular order.
Improvements to database saving to avoid corrupted city files
Improved graphics code
