0.9.1 Release Planning

I will mainly continue to work on the world generator, with a basic procedural parts prototype being a potential task I could work on as well. My main goal for the 1.0 release is to help present the future of Thrive by having the later stages (Macroscopic through to Space stage) either have expanded prototypes or if that would be too time consuming in the time we have left then at least have demos showing off what we want to achieve. I am fairly confident that I will be able to produce compelling demos using the world generator, which would primarily show off the Society to Space stages. This would leave the Macroscopic to Awakening stages a bit underrepresented in overall visuals compared to other stages appearance, so I have been considering how to best represent what we want the 3D Organism system to be capable of with the least development effort and so I came up with the basic procedural parts prototype idea.

For this specific release I will also continue to help out with testing, especially of the graphics presets, and can do further benchmarking of Thrive on different systems as necessary.
