ChapterMaster v0.9.6

Full Changelog: v0.9.5...v0.9.6

Fixed:

Crashes:

• When assigning marines to forge, loading saves and probably some other weird cases (gml_Script_scr_ui_advisors (line 864)).
• On creation screen role equip (gml_Object_obj_creation_popup_Draw_0 (line 132)).

Under The Hood:

• Made the garbage collector run every minute. Doesn't seem to inflict performance loss and fixes the array corruption. Let's see if there are any caveats.
• Reduced redundancy a bit in error report functions.

• Error logging edits (#57):
  • Error logs now have the pre-built title for the bug report on their first most line. You can just cut and paste it into the title.

  • Error message itself is edited a bit, for clarity and to include new instructions.
  • Error itself is now wrapped in markdown codeblock.
  • Error logs now also display Build Date, for when there are different builds of the same version.

  • Ship images are now white on black.
