Translucent Infestation Egg Cluster

The amount of recycled assets in the Crimson Court is as far as I can tell far greater than that of any other DLC released for Darkest Dungeon. In fact, even some of the mods intended to fix or add content to the Courtyard (Courtyard Plus, for example) have a ton of recycled assets.

My mods in general try to rectify that, even though whether or not that needs to be rectified in the first place is up for debate.

Case in point: The Egg Clusters which spawn around the various dungeons are exactly the same, right down to the description, as the Egg Clusters found naturally in the Courtyard, despite having slightly different mechanics (namely the Gatekeepers and the lack of stress heal). I figured they could use an at least slightly altered skin, which is where this mod comes in.

This mod gives the Infestation-teathered Egg Clusters a more see-through coating than their Courtyard exclusive counterparts, allowing you to see the Gatekeeper gestating inside.

A huge thank you to Kittyintheblack for teaching me the art of making semi-translucent sprites, and to Genlis_Tin for making the animated bubbles.

Note: This mod does not reskin the normal Egg Clusters. It is intended to add variety and replace a blatant recycled asset with a less offensive asset.

For those who have already completed the Crimson Court questline, feel free to use my Eternally High Infestation mod to bring back the Infestation Eggs.
