The Thalamic Buffer CBM should now behave properly.

Retractable Claws had a bug where when extended, you\'d sometimes mutate one of their prereqs. This was because prereqs and category weren\'t set up properly. I think it\'s fixed now.

The plastic chin guard was only .1mm, and so had no physical protection. It is now 1mm like the mandible guard, and is fine.

Swim goggles had way too much environmental protection. It\'s been reduced to 10. They\'ll keep smoke out, but they\'re not rated for stuff like poison gas.

Rebalanced explosions and fixed a number of bugs with the system. Shrapnel from homemade grenades will no longer completely obliterate all furniture, vehicles, and terrain uness it was a really big explosion.

Explosions are now significantly more reliably dangerous, though their average damage is now lower.

Rebalanced and renamed the land mine. It is now the M14 land mine, and its (item) description makes it clear what it is and how it works. Mines are now properly deadly, but only in a small area.

Removed the land mine crafting recipe. You can craft booby traps if you want to make IEDs. We should probably have more craftable bombs and traps, but cobbling together an M14 in your closet out of birdshot and scrap metal was not really passing the sniff test.

Lard is gone, it\'s now just tallow. Tallow and lard are like beef and pork - you can\'t get both from the same animal. Tallow is not really a generic term for rendered animal fat, but it\'s more generic than lard, so hey.

Tallow now gives cracklins.

Cut tallow, vegetable shortening, coconut oil, and ghee portion size by 1/3.

Adjusted all recipes to account for this.

Standardized tallow/cooking oil use in recipes. Now almost everything which can use oil can also use any of the rendered fat types including coconut oil and ghee.

Removed animal cooking oil. There is no such thing IRL, and the above change makes animal cooking oil pointless anyway since you can just make and use tallow.

Cleaned up a bunch of NPC snippets, they should be more grammatically correct and less stupid.

Removed the ability to beg for gear when accepting a quest, as it was causing NPCs like Smokes to flip out and threaten your life when that isn\'t really what ought to be happening. You can still beg your starting NPC for supplies.

Electric cars no longer have solar panels on them. Nearly all common models of electric car in the real world are charged by cables, not the unmatched power of the sun. I am aware that there are electric models that do have solar roofs, but these are pretty rare and wouldn\'t be easily salvageable in any case. It is still possible for the player to put solar panels on their own car if they want.

Most electric SUVs have also lost their solar panels, but not all - I see aftermarket solar panels on SUV roofs often enough IRL.

The game should now properly warn you before you step on a land mine or other dangerous trap if you can see it.

NPCs should now be much better at avoiding known traps.
