Hello Executives, this patch fixes various things across the board.

I have removed the nuclear waste gas if you build more than 3 nuclear power stations as based on feedback it was confusing and unpopular, instead I have tweaked the fuel and waste numbers to help prevent the construction of loads of nuclear power stations, the waste gas might come back later as a random event or sabotage (but a lot less deadly).
