Part 1:

* A new map mode GPU savings option is now in place, which is "Render District Borders"
** This actually defaults to off now, which changes the appearance of the map slightly, but saves a lot of transparent draw calls, which are particularly hard on GPUs. Feel free to turn it back on if your hardware is newer and you like it.

* The selection of buildings that are always shown in map mode is now a lot more limited than before. It was really overkill a bit.
** Thanks to Valectar, Bathtub, lordtrogg, and Mac for weighing in on these map view performance things.

* There is now a setting called "Number Floors Tall Above Which To Show" in the map mode performance section, which allows you to set which buildings count for showing because they are tall. This used to be 10, but now is 15 by default. You can adjust it all the way down to 1 if you want to see everything and your gpu supports it.
