Merging branch 'develop' into master (read more)

List of major changes:
* Refactored the server into smaller modules
 * Server now partially supports multiple rooms
* Overhauled the networking code
 * Packets are now a hierarchy of classes
 * Changed the way packets are moved about
 * Initial login protocol altered
* Reworked the map system
 * Two separate pager classes, one with lua one without
 * lua API supports these changes, and partially supports rooms
* Major and minor bugfixes as the need arose

This is the culmination of three weeks of work, but it feels like so much longer. Ideally there shouldn't be any major visible changes to the game, even though the code has undergone a huge revision. The intent of these changes was to make future progress much faster, and I'm not planning on doing this again any time soon. This commit is intened for 'release-0.4.1', whereas 'release-0.4' was only the first half. Naturally when you think something is done, you're only half way there.

My plans are to return to the combat system, and get it working as an actual playable system to show off. Following that, I'll begin researching the terrain generation. I'm estimating that these tasks will take 2 months each, but I'll probably be pouring as much effort into these as I did with this commit. As usual, development is rarely straight forward, so I'll probably get sidetracked at some point (hence the large development window). If I do stick to my timeline, I'll reach a "playable" alpha by mid-october. From there I'll have 2.5 months to flesh out some gameplay, and possibly submit the game to Greenlight.

After working on this game for a year, I wonder how much further there is to go before other people play it.

+--Battle System--
+
+TODO
+
+--Requirements--
+
+The enemies need AI scripts
+The scripts need to be able to generate other enemies (frog king).
+The characters need a flag to show if they're in a combat instance or not, to signify of they should be unloaded client-side
+On each game loop, the server should envoke each combat instance's update function
+	Each combat instance invokes each enemy's and character's update functions
+		These update functions increase the ATB guagues
+		if an ATB guage is full
+			than the stored command is executed
+			the players issue their commands during the build up
+			if there isn't a command ready, then the player is still choosing
+			for the enemies, the stored commands are driven by scripts, so when the enemies need to attack, their attached scripts are called.
+		after the commands are called, the ATB is reset to 0.
+	etc...
+
+--Enemy API--
+
+enemyTables -- The global store of enemy tables. Only accessed by C++ code (unless you want to break something).
+
+enemy.new(parameters) -- return a new enemy object
+
+table.logic: the AI logic. If null, do nothing
+table.ref: reference to the enemy itself, for use by API functions, set by constructor?
+
+combat -- the combat API
+combat.new(mapIndex, x, y) -- return combat instance's index
+combat.pushenemy(c, enemy) -- return the enemy's position
+combat.popenemy(c, position) --
+
