* warp gate modules
* new weapons and items
* asteroid mining is now live
* new biomes, creatures, hackables, and modules

* NPC traders fully implemented at last:

*  $actions.loot will now behave appropriately if an item to be looted is physically on the corpse (instead of spawning a  new copy)
*  added generic content dropping corpse(#27045)
      - can be used for any creature's .corpse_type and will attempt to drop a creature's contents by rolling 100 vs the creature's non zero :inventory_drop_chance()
*  trader: http://i.imgur.com/C0OlD.png
