Translation improvements

  • Polish translation updated.

Gameplay improvements

General improvements

  • GUI improved following the comments submitted by Ellen Reitmayr which can be found at Usability issues.
  • Fixed a bug which made compiling on Windows difficult.
  • Fixed two bugs with YOG. One that prevented the game name from being displayed correctly, and another that prevented players in YOG from seeing people in IRC.
