P0-A8: Part 799: Improvements, Variables, GUI’s

I have been working on tying together the core variables for the project, such as food, water, health status, etc.
I have mostly completed this, and I have added a series of on-screen effects to indicate certain conditions.
I have bleeding effects to show injury, and lens distortion and blurred vision to show starvation, desiccation, etc. I also have a “blink” effect to show exhaustion, and a frost effect to show hypothermia.
These are all visual effects, but I can add audio effects as well later.
The idea is to try to represent various conditions to the player visually, without adding an on-screen dialog, to preserve immersion as much as possible.
