Version 0.3.4.01

This mini-release mostly updates the modding guide to bring it up to date with all the modding changes made in 0.3.4. Here's a run down of all changes:

• Implemented WASD controls for map scrolling
• Fixed a minor nullref
• Added neighbors property to group entities to access a group's set of neighbors in mod scripts
• Added group property to cell entities to access a cell's group (if present) in mod scripts
• Added function to convert numeric values to boolean values in mod scripts

Note that the version tag is slightly incorrect. I previously generated a v0.3.4.01 which should be v0.3.4. Hope future tags will be correct

Version 0.3.4 alpha 2.4

• Fixed a core distance recalculation bug that would distort the simulation, causing a variety of issues, including save file corruption.

Version 0.3.4 alpha 2.3

• Fixed multiple serialization issues that prevented save files from loading successfully
