New Player Preferences:
"Throttle Screen Change Spd" - some players disliked the rapidity with which the screen
changed while switching locations. This throttle speed will introduce two pauses if the
screen reference view has to change in unit processing: One before it changes, then
one immediately after it changes location. Value is in milliseconds.
"Throttle Loc Change Spd" - some players disliked the rapidity with which the screen changed
while switching locations. This throttle speed will introduce a pause if a unit is reported
to have changed location. Value is in milliseconds.
New Unit Abilities
Added Def Fire With 1 Mv Point Attribute
Units with this flag on may now participate in defensive fire if they have one movement
point left, regardless of whether or not they have moved.
