This update moves several existing mechanics into a policy system. Reputation subsidies, prosperity subsidies, and all the future society laws have been recast as policies with minimal changes. Some of the laws have been split into multiple policies, and new policies have been added, for a total of 55 possible policy options. Only a fraction of these will be accessible at any one time, since many have prerequisites.
This system is designed to be much simpler to add options to than before, so I intend to include many more. Feel free to suggest policies that you'd like to implement. Of course, the more sweeping a policy is, the harder it'll be for me to add it. Something like a simple subsidy that affects one thing is quick and easy; something like mandatory female enslavement is tough, since all references to female citizens would have to be recoded. I'll consider everything, of course, and I've dumped a ton of time on cool ideas before: but straightforward suggestions have better chances.
