Half-way house

This is an interim release to add new units for Asterians and Enforcers, as per the September 2020 update to Escalation. There are many changes to the underlying files in this release, as I'm reviewing and updating the data files as I go, so I expect old lists to break unfortunately. Please see the change log below:

General (implemented only for Asterians and Enforcers at the moment)

• All files loaded and re-save to update the file format to latest BattleScribe (happens automatically, the "noise" tends to make changes difficult to read, so getting this out of the way now).
• Have been advised that it is better not to set entries as "hidden" then show it based on a condition, as in the case of a bug in the app or an incorrect modifier, the item won't show.
• Advice was to err on the side of caution, and use the modifier to hide the item if !condition.
• Previously, whenever a new Leader unit was added to the game it would have been necessary to go through each entry and add it for the purposes of hiding units until a Leader is selected - this is now achieved by setting hidden to true if not 1 selections in force of Leaders.
• Weapon types have been added as Shared Selection Entry Groups - this now matches the unit entry, so all that needs to be done if a unit has access to particular set of weapon types is to add those along with any overrides for cost purposes for included weapons (see below).
• Where a weapon is included in the base cost, a Modifier group that sets the item to hidden is added to the Shared Selection Entry inside the Shared Selection Entry Group. In addition, we add an Entry Link for the included item under the weapon category, e.g. "Light (Melee) > Lightblade". This has pts and VPs set to zero, sets the "max 1 Selections in Parent" constraint (to display as checkbox), and sets the "min 1 Selections in Parent" constraint with a "set [min 1 Selections in Parent] to 0" modifier to force the entry to be set as default, as per: https://github.com/BSData/catalogue-development/wiki/Common-Catalogue-Patterns.
• Under the new Shared Selection Entry Groups for weapon types, the "max 1 Selections in Parent" constraint has been moved so that an instance of it appears under each Shared Selection Entry, which causes it to be displayed as a check box. Previously radio buttons were used, where the "max 1 Selections in Parent" constraint is placed directly under the Shared Selection Entry Group. Using checkboxes allows fringe case weapons that don't take up a slot (Noh Pistol) to be selected as well as another entry, and removes the "None" that appears in several places if you have several groups.
• Items continue to use radio buttons, as it makes sense for that the way they work.
• Small Arms is a single weapon type in the book, but it makes sense to split it out into ranged and melee because of how weapon swaps work in the rules.
• Where an entry pertains to an Elite List, this has often now been added to the description in parenthesis to make it easier to maintain in the Data Editor.
• Weapon groups that currently have no entries (e.g. "Leader") exist under Shared Selection Entry Groups but are not referenced by units.

Asterians

• New units from the 2020 FAQ + Errata added.
• Modify groups (usually using AND) are used for units where Elite Lists make this more complicated (e.g. Cypher, Marionette, etc.).
• Nem-Rath and Ten 'Ur-Go have their own modifiers to cope with hiding and elite lists from Outbreak / Infestation.
• Overseer allows for two melee weapons where either may be swapped out but checks are made to ensure that at least one of the original melee weapons has been selected. Min / Max selections are set to 2 instead of 1, and under each weapon there is a modifier to set "min 1 Selections in Parent" to 1 if there is less than 1 selection of the other weapon.
• Page references updated as per the PDF copy of the September 2020 re-release of Escalation which includes the new units (usually only a couple of pages difference anyway).

Enforcers

• New units from the 2020 FAQ + Errata added
• Changes made to the way hiding entries works as noted for the Asterians data file above
• Removed "set Hidden to false" on Items where they were not required
• Pathfinder Sergeant allows for two ranged weapons where one is the Pistol, but this may not be swapped out. Min / Max selections are set to 2 instead of 1, and the Pistol purposefully does not have the modifier to set "min 1 Selections in Parent" to 0 (you cannot have two ranged weapons, unless one is a marked as not taking up a slot, like the Pistol).
• Lt. Commander Roca, Long Range Observer N7-117 and Recon Unit N32-19 have their own modifiers to cope with hiding and elite lists from Outbreak / Infestation / Nexus Psi.
• Page references updated as per the PDF copy of the September 2020 re-release of Escalation which includes the new units (usually only a couple of pages difference anyway).

Deadzone Escalation

• Addition of Escalation: Leader, Infestation: Leader, Nexus Psi: Leader and Outbreak: Leader Category Entries.
• Removal of "Aqissiaq" as no longer listed as a Merc (Plague Specialist).
• Some minor corrections, e.g. "upgrade" to "unit", some publication / page numbers.

Plague

• Noticed Chovar Psychic not linked properly, now fixed.

The GCPS

• Added weapon Shared Selection Entry Groups (prep-work).

Year of the rat

Minor update to fix Hacker Half-Tail points / VPs which were the wrong way around (issues #39 and #40).

Technical changes by amis92 since last release; addition of .gitignore ("specifies intentionally untracked files that Git should ignore") and publish-catpkg.yml ("GitHub Action to publish (compile and upload to a release) all catpkg assets: indexes and datafiles").
