Hot-patch 0.6.5.2: Darn Weather

Here's our second patch for the large 0.6.5 update.

It's making acid rains a bit less frequent, they also appear later (12th day instead of 8th). This leaves more time to stock up on food and get things rolling before farms become less reliable.

I also added much needed feedback (in the bottom right log) to combats. You'll get informed when someone score a critical hit, a survivor is near death, when an enemy dies, and so on.

Finally i fixed a few minor bugs and 2 very situational crashes.

Expect a few more small patches before I start working on the next proper update. We'll get to what will happen in the next devlog :)

Edit: Also our Reddit AMA is happening here, feel free to join :)
