Currently experimenting with adding different close combat attacks for each weapon type: unarmed, blunt, bladed. Not confirmed yet as a feature, but probable.

Melee weapons now have specials attacks. There are 3-4 attacks per melee weapon type (unarmed, bladed, blunt). Some of these attacks are unlocked with perks. Also added 2 new perks, Artery Strike and Staggering Blow.

Currently working on code to support enemies fleeing from combat and coming back with a vengence. Strong chance this will be included as a feature.

Enemy fleeing is now a thing. If the manage to flee, they will level up and you will have to face them down the line. Also worked on lighting on all maps.
