v1.0.0-beta.9

[Taureon]

• Added SANITIZE_CHAT_MESSAGE_COLORS config variable, which sanitises player messages before they get added to the dictionary of chat messages.

• Added recoilReceived multiplier to StatusEffect.

• Added permanent to io_zoom, which auto-zooms.

• Added a 256-character message length limit to basicChatModeration.js.

• Entity.define() now emits a "define" event.

• Does not fire for PARENT definitions.
• Can be stopped by setting the second argument of the entity.define() call to false.

• Added REROOT_UPGRADE_TREE entity attribute, which sets the root of the tree to itself and rerenders the tree.

• Added BOT_SKILL_UPGRADE_CHANCES config variable, which determines how likely player-bots are to pick each skill upgrade.

• Added Dreadnought V2 (with a Hexagon Tier) as a default addon that comes with the template.

• Because of how long it takes to load the huge amount of entities, it is disabled by default.

• Reworked STAT_NAMES entity attribute.

• It's now an object with the following optional attributes: BODY_DAMAGE, MAX_HEALTH, BULLET_SPEED, BULLET_HEALTH, BULLET_PEN, BULLET_DAMAGE, RELOAD, MOVE_SPEED, SHIELD_REGEN and SHIELD_CAP.
• The values are strings, and they determine the name of the stat in the skill upgrade menu at the bottom left.

• Fixed the killed entities counters in the death screen being just completely wrong altogether.

• Fixed (un)dead entities being kept alive against their will when being touched by walls or rocks.

• Fixed some entities appearing with a gray bar in the leaderboard.

• Fixed a crash bug related to resetting IOs but keeping io_listenToPlayer.

• Fixed a crash bug related to trying to visit nonexistant webpages.

• Improved TURRET_FACING_CLIENT.

• Now it just matches the master's angle.

• Resized entity borders to match Arras.

• Removed lib/definitions.js because it causes confusion to new people trying to pick up APS++.
