General Changes

Now heroes have a separate slot for neutral items. Each hero can wear no more than one neutral item active.
Now the fountain has a common hiding place. The neutral items are there, not on the ground. Right-clicking on an accessible item in the new interface will place it in the hiding place or in the courier so that it can be picked up. The new interface also shows the status and location of the remaining items that have fallen out.
The neutral item can be instantly moved to the shared hiding place by selecting the desired item from the context menu (from the backpack or neutral cell).
The number of cells in the backpack has beenreduced from 4 to 3.
