4 community levels

new community levels: (you can enable community maps in the settings)
  rings by thatLittleFrog
  flappyGon by Digin
  trial by Cirryn and Tarantula Hawk
  arena level updated by Whyisthisnotavalable

difficulty scaling:  0.84->0.85x player damage per level
research spawn per level is no longer in the difficulty settings
  instead players get 1 research for only the first few levels
cell boss has less health at high difficulty

converted JUNK tech to additive, instead of the multiplicative
  makes the first JUNK you take do the same, but if you take too much you can get to 100%
right aligned some text in tech descriptions
added some circles to the in-game console messages

renamed slow light -> delayed-choice - a single 0.4 second delayed 0.7x damage laser beam
  also now works with reflection
plasma torch field gets 1.5x damage by default
molecular assembler coupling 0.8->0.6 energy per second
nail-bot upgrade 5->4x fire rate
foam-bot upgrade 3->2.5x size and fire rate
sound-bot upgrade 2.5->2x fire rate, damage, 1->2x wave packet length
boom-bot upgrade reduced range, bot acceleration
orbital-bot upgrade 1.5->2x radius
perimeter defense 0.95->0.96x damage taken per bot
network effect 1.05->1.04x damage per bot
tech: working mass - cleaned up physics and logic a bit
negative feedback scales with health below maxHealth, not health below 100
  1.007->1.006x damage per missing health
homeostasis scales with missing health, not health below 100
  limit of 0.2x at 0 health

-player damage taken seems fine, or maybe increase

 tokamak synergy tech
   tech: stellarator - after firing a block with tokamak, heal (scale heal amount with block mass?)
   tech: inertial confinement - while charging tokamak you can fly, and invulnerable

-after getting a new tech,gun,field draw that tech where it would be in a pause menu for a second seconds
