* DOC: Move all docs into en/ subdirectory PR #1502 is working on adding a Chinese translation to the docs. In general, I encouraged this (in #1452) as a path towards getting useful translated content in the game without requiring a massive refactor/rearchitecting of everything. To support this, this takes the first step of moving our docs into an en/ subdirectory, so that other languages can live alongside. No effort is made at this time to support or select between alternate languages; this is a pure-rename refactor.

Crimes
Committing crimes is an active gameplay mechanic that allows the player to train their Stats and potentially earn money.
The player can attempt to commit crimes by visiting The Slums through the City tab (Alt + w).
The Slums is available in every city.
Basic Mechanics
When you visit The Slums you will see a list of buttons that show all of the available crimes.
Simply select one of the options to begin attempting that crime.
Attempting to commit a crime takes a certain amount of time.
This time varies between crimes.
While doing crimes, you can click Do something else simultaneously to be able to do things while you continue to do crimes in the background.
There is a 20% penalty to the related gains.
Clicking the Focus button under the overview will return you to the current task.
Crimes are not always successful. Your rate of success is determined by your Stats and Augmentations. The odds can be seen on the crime-selection page. If you are unsuccessful at committing a crime you will gain EXP, but you will not earn money. If you are successful at committing the crime you will gain extra EXP (4x of what an unsuccessful attempt would give) and earn money.
Harder crimes are typically more profitable, and also give more EXP.
