New Implementations
-----------------------
- Added Midge Swarms. Midge swarms are black clouds of midges floating about, primarily in swamps and forests, primarily at night, making life miserable for hearthlings by dealing the odd, and insignificant wound.
- Added/Re-added natural tree regrowth. An old mechanic, recently resuggested here. Trees have some chance of naturally sprouting new trees nearby, quite simply.
- Added "Metal Cabinet", container. Can't be stashed while full, like the cupboard, but can be kept outside.
Key Fixes
-----------------------
- Implemented Potjeh's breeding idea. Instead of baby animals using an average of their parents' qualities when determining their own stats, they now select the value from one or the other parent, before adding a bit of a random roll as usual. The objective being to create more selective breeding.
- Re-implemented auto-drinking when crafting. Do note that you will not drink from water sources reserved for crafting.
- You can no longer apply medicines with open combat relations.
Small Fixes
-----------------------
- Added internal walls to Beaver Dams.
- Fixed the bug by which Cave Hermit quests would sometimes ask for mining of particular minerals on leveles where those were not available.
- Fixed a bug by which it was possible to carry hookahs with smokers still attached to them.
- Paving tiles should no longer decay underneath bounding boxes (Relevant for palisades, houses, &c).
