New Terminal Autocommand

The terminal now stores commands and puts them on a cycle of up to three commands. The cycle will automatically activate commands and loops until changed. That means you can pick a rotation of your favorite terminal commands at the beginning of a match, and they will continuously run until you change them. No need to keep typing them in!

Improved performance and rebalancing!

Various rebalancing of enemies and arenas so that scaling feels better. Lower kernel levels are more engaging and the game progresses smoother both during the match, between kernel levels and across arenas. The game now has greatly improved performance, and a new option to enable and remove glow effects (on by default). This acts as a minimalist light mode and still looks like the normal graphics mode, just matte. Also, I've added the ability to enable old glow effects should you want. The game also has various behind-the-scenes code optimizations and new a dynamic where the game will auto-kick into a pseudo-low graphics mode if your fps drops too much for too long. It should be noted that this rarely happens. Just a precaution to make the game playable on more computers.
