Betabound! v12e

SUMMARY:
• New tech! Explosive Protection. Charge up by taking damage and release it in a timed explosion! Craft or find it!
• Weapon Upgrade Kits! Craft them at Tool Tables and level up your weapons. (Each kit has an associated level, and using that kit will bring a weapon up to that level.)
• Added the Long Arm! Keep your cursor on an enemy to freeze them in place for a few easy shots; buy at a level 2 Peacekeeper store!
• Grey Stim Packs (and a throwable variant)! Craft it using Hardened Carapace at an upgraded Apothecary and boost your defense!
• New encounter structure! Wrecked starship. Find it on most planets!

• NOTE: The way the game handles some weapons, (Chromosword, Starcleaver, Watersword, Candy Cane, Eye Sword, Fire Sword) were changed. If these items are in your inventory upon updating, please log into your character then return to the title screen OR shift-click the weapons into a chest. If you don't, you'll (harmlessly) be booted to the title screen. Afterwards, the weapons will work just fine.
