This is still in an early state of development, and has lots of missing bits
including  but not limited to:
  -more/better weapons
  -speed optimisations
  -proper networking
  -close range weapons(started)
  -text!(using GLUT for this at the min)
  -installer packages for various systems(an ubuntu deb for me, and an exe for the unwashed masses)

speed really is an issue here, due to a combination of python being a lil slow,
and my physics being very sloppy...


**important**
on startup you will have a single player test game
M opens the menu, but it aint done yet!

--menu-- (PRESS M TO OPEN)
's' starts a server
'c' joins a server
'w' switches to singleplayer
'r' resets the level
edit the servers ip in simplenet.py
also can change res and display options in display.py

--ingame controls--
n creates a new mario "bot" at the mouse position
the mousewheel changes weapon
Q and E change weapon
left click shoots, power is related to distance between a mario and the mouse
right click is ninja rope

WSAD are the keys used for movement
(holding)spacebar jumps
left control is croutch/climb(semi-disabled)
holding V digs

--Known issues--
Arrows, knives, or anything that sticks into the terrain will crash the game if
it happens before an explosion that damages the terrain - needs a fix fo-sure
