How it works
Look for the "Ask Alejandro" button on any page in your campaign. You can ask up to 3 questions per page (adventures, rumors, and world-building ideas).
Inside City Builder, you can take any answer and ask Alejandro to elaborate. Which you can then do again on those answers. So effectively unlimited detail per place in each city or town.

DONE gp (and probably questions) earned, seems to count debits too, not just credits. Effecting max?
Refreshing (esp with slow connection) can cause secrets to be updated twice with same results.
DONE Two bugs causing too many free questions
KILL On dialog, say 1 question instead of 3 gp for cost if free questions > 0
DONE On dialog, Show red error if ask error
