New movie creation

First: happy new year everyone! Now, let's get back to it:

A few days back I got a brilliant idea (if I may say so myself...). With these new profiles I added for all the girls in the game, I also added a "job" tab. At first I was only going to use this for small conversations, but then it dawned on me. I got an idea to automatically make every single actress in the game hirable for movies with a single code snippet. 

Before, I had a large chunk of code for every hirable actress. It stated their cost, their success bonus etc. Everything was in that page. Now it's all automated. The game checks the database for girls with "actress" as a job and I gave them all a 'popularity' value. Based on that, it now automatically calculates their price and success bonus. It's honestly pretty fucking amazing.

With this done, I redid movie making entirely. The following has changed:

- You now have to hire a 'casting manager' to see the success rate of your movie or how much success rate each actress/choice adds. 

- Step 1 is picking a genre again. No more automatic genre detection

- Step 2 is the game picks a random title and plot. You can override with your own if you want

- Step 3 is casting. With the new code, literally dozens of girls are available. 

- Step 4 is an actual little casting scene. You can try exploiting your power, but not all girls will accept this! Depending on their fame and their sex type, they might refuse. Prudish girls will even get mad and storm off, refusing to work with you until you apologize or even suing you for harrassment. This is a nice example where girl's personality types play a big role.

- Step 5 is hiring the supporting star. She doesn't get the casting scene, just a clickthrough (might change later).

- Step 6 is deciding if you want your movie to have nudity or not. It'll cost extra but will also add success. You can even pick unsimulated sex scenes. Prudish actresses will refuse this and will charge double for nudity.

- Step 7 is merchandising which is now part of the process in front instead of after release

- Step 8: Your movie is done. Expect movies to cost a lot more than before. Making a 95% success rate blockbuster will cost you close to 50mil now

After the movie is in production, you can visit the set and see the stars or talk to the director. It's not a very deep mechanic right now but more a fun little addition.
