Fixes and Changes

Contains all the changes/fixes made to packages so far. (which have been in previous builds, but not used)

Alters the terrain_info.def format to:

1) Make it around 30% smaller.

2) Allow it to represent a full world cache without imploding. It was hitting element count limits before and self-destructing, which caused all the terrain data to be needlessly re-fetched once a certain number of sectors was explored.

As a result of this change, your terrain data cache will essentially be wiped out, sorry. (world object cache will remain intact)

Issues Known But Not Fixed In This Build
