11/27 Testing Branch (Windows/Linux/Mac)

This is it for all the big changes in the coming update. Let me know if there's any problems in the comments.

I was going to try to get one special trading camp in, but I'm going to wait on that and just do a big batch of them in the next update. I may try to sneak in a bunch of regular trading camps tomorrow, as they're easy to test. If I do this, I'm going to edit this announcement instead of making a new one, just so all the comments are in one place.

EDIT: NEVERMIND, some HDD corruption issues popped up last night. The above trading camp stuff is going to have to be moved to FEMUR.

INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT NOTE: The testing branch and the retail version use different save files! Testing Branch saves also get cleared out on occasion.

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

CHANGES

- New Rare Camp Recruit: Earnestine
- New Weapon: Farmer's Shotgun, for the above character. 33% more damage per pellet than a normal double barrel, and fires 33% faster!

- New sprite added for Chainsaw Hand
- Chainsaw hand now does 0.8 damage per tick instead of 1 damage. This is mostly for flavor, as it's 20% smaller than a normal chainsaw.

- Double Barrel Shotgun now has 20% piercing instead of 10%
- Big Dawg: Trader cost set to 35, down from 40
- Big Dawg: Piercing increased to 15%, up from 10%

- Typo fix: "the less busy side road"
