5/16 Testing Branch (Windows)

At least it's not Monday anymore.

More Perks and Traits systems added, and some more misc things to test. Still mostly things concerning the new Zombo Town in [ Info ]

After this build, I'll take the debug numbers off the road screen. Keep posting those!

Posting update news tomorrow. Cutting some stuff, adding some other things, and likely launching it a couple weeks after May so we can add more uncks.

HOW TO INSTALL: Right click Death Road to Canada on Steam. Go to Properties. Go to Betas. Select Testbranch, no password necessary.

Changes:

Perk/Traits Unlock System

- A handful of perks can now be upgraded. Test them out!

- Perks and Traits can now be properly locked, with icons and everything.
- Locked perks and traits will show up in the Custom Characters screen, and their descriptions can be viewed.
- System overhaul to the unlock/upgrade words.

- Perks and Traits now properly show a preview description of themselves before being unlocked.
- Can now back out of the preview to the previous screen.
- LOCKED text added to descriptions if locked.

Zombo Town

- Tweaks to Zombo Town building placement
- Added two friendly robits
- Added helpful town directions
- Added a dire warning

- The Perk Dingus temporarily spawns a copy of himself outside, for easier testing.
- Perk Dingus has a number indicator over his head for now that will later become how many perks/upgrades/traits he has remaining.

Fixes

- Altered a placeholder WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE line
- cyoa-blank word added for easily making a CYOA event with no icon.

Debug

- console-open word for debugging
