Simple Chains: Leather Adjusted

Original Mod by OwlChemist. This is an altered version previously for my own use, but every man and his dog is updating his stuff now I figured I'd upload this as an alternative. I have kept the original packageID for save compatibility. This means you will need to unsub from Owlchemist's version. Fear not, I flagged them as co-author of this one.


1.4 and 1.5 version of OwlChemist's Simple Chain's Leather with the following changes:
- Bird Leather/Hide removed
- Lizard Leather/Hide removed
- new Leather/Hide "Sauropsid" added combining the above two into a single leather type.

This was done because "Normal" Leather is average for all purposes; Thick Leather: has high defence and durability, making good armour; Soft Fur has high comfort value, so good for furniture; Heavy Fur has high cold insulation, great for winter attire; and while Rawhide is generally poor, it is cheap and easy to make, so is useful when starting out. Meanwhile, Bird and Lizard leather were awkward at best, and useless at worst.
Sauropsid Leather stats are approx: 6/5/1/9/6/5/5 - utilizing Lizard's decent durability, the Bird's high heat insulation, and adding decent comfort level to make this leather great for summer attire.

- Rats and Turkeys have been given back leather drops.
- Rats now drop slightly less than squirrels, coz they lack a bushy tail.
- Turkeys and Geese have had their leather and meat amounts balanced, so the drop a bit less than the much larger birds.

This was done because it made no sense that rats and turkeys could not drop leather when similarly sized squirrels and geese did.
The balancing for the smaller birds is a change to the vanilla standard.
