Fixes

• Fix: in some circumstances, the game wouldn’t properly close on exit
• None of the shortage events (except for service) were displayed in the Happiness tooltip

• Destroying a monument before its completion refunded too many resources
• While a game rule that modified the trading price was active, the “Buy from village” price was rounded before calculating the quantity available for purchase

• Switching a sub-building function in the Fuel mod (1.9+) crashed the game
