Update on 5/14/2023 2:59:23 PM.

-Updated Preview image and changed mod name to alleviate confusion about Mantodeans C+E and whether or not it was compatible with Combat Extended. Mantodeans Continued is not compatible at this time though after the Brood Update I will look into how much work I need to do to make it compatible for those who use it.

- Changed Medical Jelly to be under the Mutagen Bench research.
- Added new Mantodean Trader types including the Standard, Jelly Trader, Slave Trader and Brood Trader.
- Slight adjustment to the Meat def.

Should now come with less major Dev Mode Bugs!

Update on 4/12/2023 3:12:36 PM.

- Adjustment of what I think is causing things that... *should* fix it.

Update on 4/12/2023 2:54:57 PM.

- Changed Mantodean Lesser Castes to use their own base MantoInsect.

Re-adding the previous update in small parts to isolate which one is causing the issue. In the future I will have a "Dev" version of Mantodeans to work with myself and my testers and you all shouldn't see this anymore. >.>

Significant error involving the Spawn Thing command in Dev Mode has caused me to revert all changes after this point as it Should be the last working build.

- Another attempt to fix the issue.

Update on 4/11/2023 4:37:33 PM.

- Unupdated much of the previous update to check for where exactly the Dev Mode issue is arising.

- Updated and added mantodean trader types to expand caravans that visit players.
- Modified the Mantodean Standard trader to carry a collection of mantodean resources and food.
- Added a Mantodean Jelly trader who will trade large amounts of jellies.
- Added a Mantodean Brood trader who will deal in insects and lesser castes.
- Added a Mantodean Slaver trader who will deal in slaves both of other hives and species. (Reminder that Mantodeans consider this food rather than labor.)
- Changed BaseInsect for Mantodean Castes into MantoInsect. Added Trade Tag MantoInsect to all Mantodean castes.
- Changed Medical Jelly to use the Mutagens Research. This is temporary until I get some more of the Industrial level tech tree made up and ready for live, and then Medical Jelly will move to its proper place.
- Added Trader Types to MantodeanFaction Defs so they show up.

Update on 3/30/2023 2:53:25 PM.

-Re-implemented Tattoo options despite their slightly off target placement on Mantodeans. A new plan is going to be considered and looked into to further correct for this in the future.
