More TrackMania Turbo bugs

Bug: At any breakable piece workshop except the Inventor's Lab, first build a piece. Next, break the workshop down. This will cause the piece you made to be embedded inside another. Then, rebuild the workshop by replacing any piece except for the embedded one and build another piece. Fourth, break down the workshop or break down or move the piece. The former choice will result in the game crashing instantly, while the latter will result in the workshop spawning Keflings, eventually leading to the crash of the game.

Bug: On the 1st island there is a long tunnel. In the middle of it are 4 bums (Hobos, tramps, whatever) in a circle with a package in the middle.
