Alpha 05 — Ship explosions and the Formation Editor

Ships now explode properly instead of quietly disappearing, the Formation Editor moves to the main menu with a save system and ship sprites, and skirmish mode gets AI opponents. Star systems were also renamed, for reasons the notes put more bluntly than I will.

Install note: You will need both the .exe and the .pck files downloaded!
