ENGINE

Significant turn time improvements.
Invisible Rivers now display correctly. This caused many issues because the player could not see some rivers, like fresh water showing up in strange places, unit movement suddenly shortened, etc… Basically, there were certain rivers that did not display where forks occurred, etc.
Memory leak UI Change the way the UI Manager calculates the hash of a texture so that different ways of specifying the same texture will not load the same texture more than once.
