HEY! I managed to release version 4.20 on 4/20, the day famous for the start of the Spanish-American war and the discovery of radium chloride. Much better performance and more random map generator functions.

Complete list of fixes:

-Greatly improved performance with multiple party members moving.
-Fixed bug where contracts wouldn't work if you had a full party (now able to recruit 20 additional henchmen).
-Fixed bug where explosions would cause mobiles to attack random objects if object disappears in script.
-Added river and more road options to mapRandom command (no bridges yet).
-Now forbidden to have more than 20 henchmen per map.

Huge update, adding a very useful command. In the world editor, use the "mapRandom" command to bring up a list of options to generate a random map with wildlife, etc. Still working on it, so expect more options in the future for biomes, rivers, buildings, etc. Also other little fixes.

Made it so teammates will ask if you want them to leave their inventory behind when they leave you at certain parts. Also, player now accelerates very briefly before reaching max speed to make it easier to move around ledges and look a little smoother.
