[Joe Hewitt]

GearHead2 version 0.502 has just been released. In case you don't
know, GearHead is a Sunrise-inspired scifi roguelike CRPG featuring
giant robots. Features include both personal and mecha scale combat, a
random story generator, and more procedural content than you can shake
an atomic war club at.

Here is the complete list of changes:

- Lots of components have been added to the core story
- Shops show item info when selling items, viewing mecha (services.pp)
- Shops can now spell out their wares in ASCII mode (randmaps.pp)
- Added lots of new meshes
- Fixed mesh rotation bug
- Added Rishiri Spinner
- Added Red Mask Raiders, Aegis Space Force factions
- Regen, Stone, and Haywire should now wear off (ghweapon.pp)
- Map generator set properly when moving from dynamic scene to
metascene (arenascript.pp)
- Scene content generator speed, selection improved (randmaps.pp)
- Global element search won’t return undeployed unique content
(playwright.pp)
- Added NOFAC tag if xxran element has no faction (playwright.pp)
