beta decay v.0.0.22a

Inventory System Foundations for entity pickups. When an entity is picked up it is physically attached to the player. These range from weapons, ammo, to containers of various entity types.

Entity Stress Testing - 60+ Frames with 1000+ entities on screen. Next round of testing will simulate mock starships with Structures, components, and wires interconnected.
Spaceship construction is comprised of several Entity components welded together. This ranges from the base hull structures, engines, and terminals, to each wire that connects them together. Therefore, it is critical that Entity performance is tested as ships may be comprised of 100+ entities working together that allow the ship to function.
