Features

Added new large battery item and revised the electricity system, which now requires them to power lights and electric fences at night. We also added limits to how many objects individual batteries and panels can power before they overload the grid

Improvements

Babies can now be exploded into gibs
There are now some cannibal nomad families lead by Frank the fire cannibal starting after 8-12 days
Hanging skeletons and new hanging gore added to fisherman huts
Corner beams now contribute to beams structural resistance, making it less likely to break easily if only corner ramps are there
Beams can now be placed leaning on another leaning beam, allows stacking one level of leaning beam
Corner ramps no longer use a full plank for each placement, placing full planks will split it to a smaller size when appropriate and drop a pickup matching the rest of the quarter log planks
Placing free wires on a solar panel now forces the position of the wire to the connector position on the model
Free wires connected to beams & pillars now use a wire model instead of a zip-tie for the supporting ring visual
