Changelog for 0.1.5

This is the last release before the ARRP on Sept. 18, on which I plan to release version 0.2.0, which will include much more interesting towns and cities, and well as implement dialogue and quests, although the main focus will be filling out the current features with content.

Note that save-file compatibility is not guaranteed between versions, and attempting to load cross-version will most likely result in the program crashing or other bugs.

* Added alchemy system, one recipe, another herb
* Added various new content
* Added wilderness encounters
* Added 2 backgrounds
* Added at least 5 new skills
* Various activities now train attributes
* Weapon skills now give a slight dodge bonus when facing those weapons
* Reworked NPC starting experience, stats, and skills

Features

Currently implemented features:

* Basic alchemy
* Autoexplore and goto
* Basic magic/spell system
* Score keeping, and high score list
* Shops
* Basic settlements
* Field of view and light sources
* Random world generation
* A small selection of items and monsters
* Several dungeon environments
* Basic melee and missile combat
* Basic weapon skills and a few non-combat skills, with a basic training framework
* Languages:  The more advanced races speak a common tongue, but each race generally has 
   its own specific language as well
* Pre-set quests
* Factions and territories, e.g., goblins in their own territory might attack creatures 
   they would not mind in other places
* Multiple damage types
* Natural weapons and special effects (e.g., rats can transmit disease through their bite)
* Monsters are the same type of game entity as the player, and wield weapons, use items, etc.
* Random item generation
* Extremely extensible property-driven event system

Planned features:

* Monster and item descriptions, memory
* Hundreds of items and creatures
* Many different locations, dungeons, complexes, etc.
* Diverse effects for different weapon types and styles
* Many, many skills
* Activatable items, skills, and powers
* Random quests, and not just basic things like "Go and Find X of Y", "Kill X of Y", etc.
* Weather patterns

   The Legend of Siegfried is one of these.)
* ...and more...
