If a relationship to a faction specified in NoHateFactions is generated, it defaults to a friendly relationship. Likewise, if a friendly relationship to a faction specified in NoFriendFactions is generated, it defaults to a dislike relationship. If a faction is specified in both lists, the final relationship is dislike.
[*][modding] The LiquidVolume part now has the fields Sealed (a boolean which, if true, makes the liquid inaccessible), ManualSeal (a boolean that enables seal and unseal inventory actions on the item), and LiquidVisibleWHenSealed (a boolean which, when true, means the liquid can be seen while the volume is sealed; if false it cannot).

[*]The old Skills, Reputation, SaveModifierVs, and SaveModifierAmount attributes are still supported for compatibility, but a warning will be issued in the game output log when they're loaded, and mods should be ported to the new mechanism.
[*]Genotypes.xml and Subtypes.xml now support self-closing XML tags, like <tag />.
[*]The <chargeninfo> element on subtypes is no longer used. Most subtype chargen information is automatically generated. Arbitrary text that should be added can be placed in <extrainfo>Some text to show.</extrainfo> elements. <removeextrainfo></removeextrainfo> elements can also be used to remove extra info items. (<chargeninfo> is still used on genotypes.)
