About The Pull Request
Ghosts are now able to send messages to bitrunners with a custom set message (duh) and the username. Message is sent over Supply radio channel.
To prevent malicious use by some less unsavory folks, you can also interact with the quantum server to toggle its messaging protection on/off. It's off by default.
Anchors are now limited in amount and are dependent on the scanner tier, which was previously only used to see domain info. One additional anchor per tier, starting with one.
How This Contributes To The Nova Sector Roleplay Experience
Lack of communication between the ghosts and bitrunners is rather bad, as you can't really tell whether you'll be getting people willing to fight more or to talk more. Now, it's actually possible; with an additional check ensuring that you won't get shittalked into the floor by some CoD:MW2 riot shield hater.
Uh yeah infinitely respawning into domains pretty unbalanced; literally, there was nothing to limit this. I planned to add this earlier but I was in Moscow so alas.

qol: Ghosts are now capable of communicating with bitrunners by clicking the bitrunning server, assuming that it wasn't locked from messaging by the runners.
balance: Bitrunning domain anchors are now limited in use per domain, locked behind the scanner tier, allowing for one initially, up to four at maximum parts tier.
