Preferred Language + Autohiss Default Options

Autohiss can now be set to Full from the character menu, and by default, it is assumed Full. It will respect save/load and client connect/disconnect, meaning you no longer have to constantly toggle autohiss.

Preferred Language can now be set. This allows a default spoken language other than Common to be set from spawn, allowing characters to simply join with the language they'd prefer speaking, rather than having to fiddle with "Set Default Language" every time they spawn.
Server rules do still apply, ofc. You must be able to speak Common or at least +understand+ it capably enough to do your job.

Yes, Autohiss is set underneath Egg Type. I wanted to use some of the space there. I can move it up under the Size/etc panels and speech verbs if requested.
