Pie's Generic Patch
Various bugfix patches that I'm adding to/removing from as required.
Current fixes (\* requires a new city to be generated):
- Fixes group meetups \*
- Groups and dates will actually meet up and in more locations than just the diners
- Group flyers are fixed to actually gives times and members as they should
- Adds retirees \*
- The 'retired' occupation is unused by default in SOD, but there are jobs and cases that assume it exists. This ensures that there are people in that occupation.
- Fixes NPCs needing the bathroom too often (and other needs)
- A citizen talking or interacting caused their needs to increase too quickly, resulting in lots of extra bathroom usage. This prevents the double counting that was occurring
- Fixes Type E handwriting
- The Type E handwriting preset pointed at the Denise handwriting font instead of Halogen
- Fixes shopkeepers asking for passwords they don't need
- "Buy something" and "Opening hours" could fail (and fall through to the "need a password" response) when a sync disk lowered dialog success chance, or when the shopkeeper was involved in an active side job
- Fixes signatures
- When sales ledgers were obfuscated, signatures were globally impacted. This changes them back to always be "F. Lastname" as a signature on legal documents. Ledgers are not affected

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
