V0.18.0.1

Sorry for the long time since last update. I ended up doing some other stuff than I thought. But I think now every bigger thing is implemented and I can just post a new version anytime I want. (previously there were always half finished things that kinda broke the game during the transition etc.).
So now I'll try for a more consistent update schedule.

V0.18.0.1 (only unlockables.sav is compatible)

Dating:

• a lot more events/pictures
• more cards/upgrade options
• can only date each character once/day
• most uniques have a small unique dating effect/passive

Overworld:

• Full portals are now saved (savefile bigger based on current loaded portals. might cause loading of the save selection screen to take longer with many savefiles for now.)
• Changing tiles affects daily changes/regrow things
• separated building/terraform menu. 
• (foundation for more complex buildings with storage/ability to assign characters etc. in future)
• some things can be build at higher range

Town:

• some locations have an additional npc

• evo-show update
• in shows, guests now leave when satisfaction stays at 100 or 0 for 2 turns
• time cost for show-actions and duration halved. (ranks increase max time)
• Removed the nearby location buttons
• Removed some library tabs and updated info.

Start:

• Added loadouts for starting selections. 
• Mc-genetics from character creation give bonus base stats now.
• Some genetic starting traits have additional benefits.
• One random profession has a yellow bonus, also giving you more options for first essence.

Other:

• Cleaned up some decriptions/tutorial etc.
• Updated story/lore stuff to be more consistent.
• Druid has a new starting passive, granting a bonus based on stance.
• Expanded fairy help suggestions 
• Unique looks and some abilities are kept after fusing, if the species matches.
• Characters can toggle between guard and shield as defensive action. (testing for now)
• many small QoL changes
• some new "cheats":
• "skill+ +skillname" list species with that skill (e.g "skill Fireball").
• "passive+ +passivename" to list passives. 
• "glimpse" to reveal gallery temporarily without messing with unlocks.
• those don't flag a file as cheating.
• While a file is flagged as cheating, you're now never encumbered.

Noteworthy bug fixes:

• Soft lock when a character had regeneration/bleed effects at the same time in a specific order.
• AI-focus setting didn't do anything.
• character quest rewards were always the same
• some types of dating action didn't immediately update stats.
• growth essences only applied to fusions and not eggs.
• some elemental weaknesses weren't consistent with tooltips.

Next:

• I still have to write descriptions for scenes/events, which was kinda the main thing I wanted to do this update.
• Next I'll probably clean up/add some overworld events, fill in town stuff and add many rare world objects/biomes etc.
• Otherwise there aren't that many placeholders etc. in the game anymore and the core will soon be mostly finished.
