Always Running Captain Commands

Description
This is just an update to https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2594711721
All I did was change the version number, it seems to work fine in my games. Once the original mod updates I'll take this one down.

Original description below:

Makes your Captains' commands continue their progress even while the game isn't running!
More precisely, this mod keeps track of the last time your running commands were secured (saved) and then fast-forwards updates when commands are loaded to 'catch up' with a factor of real-world time.

The fast-forward kicks in about 30 seconds after the commands are loaded. When that happens, all progress will happen at once -- potentially including one or more ambushes if your commands were destined to be ambushed. Be ready and don't AFK as you're loading your galaxy!

For balancing, only 2/3 of the real-world time that passes will 'catch up' in the game. This is intended to be the tradeoff for having much more control and predictability on when ambushes will happen. This 'replay ratio,' together with a maximum cap for time that can advance while players are away, are controlled via two variables at the top of the included simulation.lua file and can be easily customized.

This is exactly what I needed to make midgame single player economy grinding feasable. Now I just need something similar for player owned station productions.
