Gameplay
Battles
Reduced rubber-banding movement of fighters.

Events
Handled edge case where selecting "decide later" doesn't let you select later.
"Exotic Alien Lazy Genius Fever": Fixed the tooltips to display the correct data.
"Divine intervention": the "accept" option now correctly applies to the income penalty.

Fixed an issue that prevented you from changing Victory conditions during the middle of the game.
