艺术武学Charge-up skills reworked

• Instead of charges being generated one-at-a-time per charge-up attack and the effects only triggering when consumed, a 3-stage cycle is used:
• Charge-up attacks immediately trigger the attack's effect which corresponds to the current stage (1-3) and generate charges until the character has that many charges of the attack's type. The first attack will trigger a stage 1 effect and generate 1 charge, the second attack will trigger a stage 2 effect and generate 1-2 charges, and the third attack will trigger a stage 3 effect and generate 1-3 charges.
  • Using 1 charge-up skill will result in 3 total charges per cycle
  • Using 2 different charge-up skills (A,B,B) will result in 4 total charges per cycle (1 from skill A, 3 from skill B)
  • Using 2 different charge-up skills (A,A,B) will result in 5 total charges per cycle (2 from skill A, 3 from skill B)
  • Using 3 different charge-up skills will result in 6 total charges per cycle (1 from first skill, 2 from second skill, 3 from third skill)
• A finishing move or basic attack may be used after any stage to consume all the charges and trigger an effect for each one, resetting the cycle. If a fourth charge-up attack is used instead, the previous charges will simply expire without triggering anything and the cycle will begin again. Charges expire after 5 minutes if no attacks are used.
