Large Bugs

- Fixed Bugs related to Snake Eyes and items with Office Activations (green halos). All of that item name should show the same number with a green halo, and they all should go down whenever one is used. I.E. if you have 5 Dust Carrots and Snake Eyes rolls a 2 for Dust Carrot, they will all display 2, and then after a single use, they will all display 1, then another use to display 0. Then the game will act as though you had 0, until the next Office when it refreshed
