Previously every contract in the workshop board had a system generated, and every employee for every system had their personal system generated. This lead to A LOT of unused systems being generated, but allowed for more detail contract descriptions.

Locked-out inputs while your avatar is crashing in cyberspace

Tweaked the size of the interaction range, and slightly adjusted the location of objects in the safehouse to help avoid interacting with the wrong object.

Reworked the mechanics for logging into cyberspace which should prevent the crash-bug. Note: I couldn't recreate the crash, but I found something that *could* cause a crash and fixed that.

Fixed a bug with the training buttons that required you to have 11 motivation, instead of 10.

Updated the on-hover tooltip for Health to help breakdown where it's derived from.

Increased all non-zero difficulty contracts by ¥10.

Increased the range and number of contracts offered.

Tweaked the rate of XP decay for Fitness, Quickness, and Fortitude. Removed the XP decay for Mobility.

Truncated the XP values displayed in the character screen.

The landlord is collecting rent once more. It will be deducted from your account at midnight.
