[getter77]

v1.9

[New] You can now click on the map to path
[New] Added a note explaining the blocks produced by cage bombs etc.
[New] Reworked fire again:

    Lasts 7 turns
    Contact will set you on fire, burning for 5 turns, 2% damage per turn
    This yields a possible max of ~25% damage
    This also gives you a -10% physical and magical protection effect
    These changes ALSO apply to cursed fire

[Change] You now stop pathing when you see an enemy
[Change] You no longer trigger traps that you can see
[Bugfix] Fixed mouse-over enemy log being obscured by inventory etc.

Note: Someone actually managed to beat the game!  At least you can rest assured that it is possible =D

Yay for generally demonstrated victory!
