Many, many apologies about the wait. On the bright side, I did a lot of cleanup. Part of the problem with formatting is that my laptop screen has a huge crack on the left, which makes a dead zone, which means my formatting is often based on a 900-1000 pixel screen. I started using notepad++ though. Thanks for reminding me about it. As a side note, kittens now grow up in 1 turn, because it's annoying to keep track for 2 turns. A lot of you have unharnessed cats, so feel free to harness them. The engine comes with free harnesses is a basically unlimited amount.
