Degrees of Lewdity version 0.3.13.5

This update adds the catacombs, which skulduggerous PCs can plunder. It also adds a dozen missions to the pub that let you increase or decrease fame, new Halloween events, nightmares, and an office building where the PC can find work.

The catacombs are the next "tier" for skulduggery, taking the skill from C+ to B. It's a dark and dangerous area, full of nastiness from a forgotten age, as well as more recent intruders. Unlike other skulduggerous areas, the PC plunders antiques for the museum, rather than goods for the black market.

An office building on the High Street is advertising work for temporary office staffers. No previous experience is required, but there's no doubt danger involved. Perhaps PCs who know a thing or two could wrangle more cash.

On Halloween, teenagers will now throw a party at the lake, drawn by the area's spooky reputation. They might encounter a different sort of terror. Meanwhile, an older threat stirs beneath the water. The Ivory Wraith has become a full NPC, with a new stat and other changes.

I've been considering adding a way to lower fame for a while. I was concerned about making the fame stats less impactful however. Being caught on camera should be worrying! I also wanted an interesting method, rather just passive decay. The contributor Crimson Tide has been hard at work on the solution, a variety of missions with a degree of risk.

Sensitivity has been overhauled, and now applies more widely and appropriately. This has a big impact on game balance, so let me know if anything feels off.

Huge thanks to the contributors, and to you for playing! Happy Halloween!

Edit: Updated to 0.3.13.4, fixing bugs.
Edit 2: Updated to 0.3.13.5, fixing more bugs.
