Race - Hive Scout Drone

Description
Original model made by Ryabovskiy
https://www.nexusmods.com/kenshi/mods/1404
"I will be glad if someone completes this mod, since I do not understand some aspects of modding for Kenshi. If you are going to redo it, specify the co-authorship"

Ashen Hive patch:

This mod adds in three new sub races:
Hive Scout Drone
Hive Scout Drone South Hive
Deadhive Scout

Notable changes from the original:
Southern and Deadhive versions
Stat rework
Functional head sliders
Distribution and spawns of the races in places I felt they fit.

Scout Drones are designed to be very specialized in speed and little else.
They have the fastest run speed min/max of any of the vanilla races
(3mph faster than worker drone's max run speed) and are faster in combat than hive races by 10%
They have a buff to athletics, swimming, science, medic, block, and dodge.
To account for this, they have reduced dexterity compared to other hivers, a whopping 30% debuff to strength, and debuffs to dexterity related skills.

Western Scouts can be found sprinkled around in the western hives and in caravans.
A new squad of southern scouts called dronewatch has been added to the southern hive, appearing frequently in places you would find dronguards.
A new fogmen unit called Fog Sprinter has been added to the foglands, they are unarmed and extremely fast.
It will be harder to run from these fogmen but will be overall less dangerous due to their low MA skill.
Western Scouts can also be found in place of other drones in other factions infrequently.

Whats the point of making them have 10% faster combat speed if you're nuking their dex? I love the design though, i really want a Primordial Hive version.

If I did add them, there's a good chance it was unintentional, or overlooked.
I do not have access to my pc atm, but will try to remember this whenever I have access again.

@perfect_Prefect I'm a little confused, as the changelist I have posted in the screenshots doesn't show anything that would make me think it's affecting elite samurai ?
I don't remember adding them to the race list for elite sams

The problem with this mod is that new units appear in inappropriate roles, such as elite samurai. Naturally weak and without helmets, they are easy to kill.

Interesting but honestly weird-looking.

@okuupation yes, as I designed them to be vanilla friendly, southern and deadhive are not available in game starts, just like vanilla hivers
