-=AddBackground bg/RemoveBackground bg=_
In order to add a background, type "AddBackground bg" and press tab to cycle through
the available backgrounds. The game will freeze if you add them before the moment 
where you choose them in game (conversations with Big Jorg, Lorenz, etc.) After 
adding too many backgrounds, the game will freeze if you access the "Ex Libris" 
journal tab (pressing C), but every other journal tab will work fine. You can remove
backgrounds by typing "RemoveBackground bg" and cycling through them with tab again.
