So much new stuff.

Fixed some bugs/skips in a few animations.
Built grenade models.
Updated tables and stats to make inventory ready for grenades.
Fixed inventory display card size to accommodate more items on screen. Fixed font size to match.
Julien continues work on AI.
Designed weapon upgrade system.
Started on weapon upgrade icons.

Some neat things about the AI which will be implemented shortly: a hacking grenade will enable you to switch enemy robots to see you as friendly, and see their own kind as enemies:

They will attack their allies and ignore/defend you.
"Aggression response" will determine how much friendly fire an ally will tolerate before turning on his friend.
This will let you cause distractions and infighting among the bad guys, or sneak past enemies without them alerting anyone nearby.
We can also use this mechanism to take direct control of enemies but it will require more advanced controller input code (low on the priority list).
