Changelog for 1.7.x (current ver: 1.7.4)

[Dave]

For anyone interested, here is a detailed list of the changes in 1.7.0:

Enhancements:
- Book 7!
- LOTS of more awards (e.g. 65 total Kai awards! thanks to kamikaze)
- some nice new medal images courtesy of McKinstry
- some new code to deal with Fireseeds and Adgana
- improvements to the Editor for increased efficiency in converting books.
- The tooltips for buttons that will pick up special named weapons now displays the various bonuses associated with that weapon (such as in Prodigy mode). This allows the user to determine if its worth trading out weapons BEFORE dropping one of their current weapons.
- new code to deal with different types of bonuses/penalties for custom weapons.
- new method of weapon-use tracking for combats - can track unarmed combats (needed for a few awards).
- new method of storing Item info in save game files - save file will be smaller as a result (though it's only a secondary benefit)
- cosmetic improvements with punctuation and buttons. The punctuation is no longer inside the button.
- Main menu "Resume Campaign" button tooltip now shows the current Book/section, and only mentions if you have or haven't died (no death count total.)
- medals on Awards page are now arranged in order of increasing difficulty (Easy/Moderate/Hard/Expert).
- If dealing with limits on the number of special items carried, those items which don't count toward the total are indicated by "*" on the page (and in the tooltip).

Fixes:
- Cosmetic bug involving auto-equip of shields.
- No more red-square (missing image) medals on awards page
- Clicking on the Title of the book will now display a random image from ALL downloaded images (was leaving one out of the selection.) Only picks a random image if you haven't selected a "favorite"
- Fixed a problem with save games not erasing properly when a user restores back to a previous book, using saved campaign data.
- Player is now only notified of qualifying for a Hall of Fame at the conclusion of a series (and not every subsequent book!)

Fixes:
