[5] Initial implementation of some attribute stuff. Nothing in this commit actually works but the game still launches! Will need to move item and armor stuff to a more generic file as well to make it less unique so it can be used broadly. Directory structure extended to add items and resources

[5] **WORKING** add custom item and item group to game. primarily metaljacket items not added yet - but example item works.

[5] initial add of custom blocks

[5] Made adding blocks more dynamic - tested to work

[5] Fixed metal jacket armor & created correct texture files to not break game. TEXTURES ARE RANDOM ON WEARING AS I DONT HAVE AN ACTUAL TEXTURE YET

[5] Started attribute tree stuff
