- Improved effectiveness of antibiotics and viruses at high bacteria counts
- Reduced amount of dense substrate left behind by dead cells
- Motile cells have longer life spans
- Gentler contaminant events
* Legibility:
- Changed economy tickers to show strains rather than genes
- F1 now toggles all HUD panels off without hiding the HUD fully. ctrl + F1 hides the HUD completely (for screenshots/cinematics)
