Dark Nova 5.03 for Feb Public Release

[bearclaw]

Hey everyone.

Just wanted to let everyone know that this mod is still on track for Feb 1 public release. That is, unless the beta testers find anything drasticly wrong.

There still won't be any AI scripts but it's on my list. There are also a fairly large list of things I still want to add, but I want to get this into your hands sooner rather than later.

Here's the fix list so far for 5.03:
-v5.03
Added- Unit Construction, Colonization Tech, Defenses Tech and Resource Generation Technology Groups.
Changed- Re-catagorized appropriate techs to new Technology Groups.

Added- 3 additional versions of Gain Random tech Ruins. (gain 4, 5 or 6 tech levels)

There are also a couple of small bug fixes that will make it in too but this is the majority.
