Camping Penalty

“	Camping Penalty is basically a 'how lazy of you to hunt in one area' penalty. If you stay in one spot all day and hunt, you will receive this penalty. The penalty increases in increments of 5%, but it varies as well. For example, if you don't even move a single step, the penalty can increase 10%!	„
