UPDATE:
New Xenotype: Splice-Locusts!
Splice-Locusts are a rare caste that specializes in operating spacecraft and surviving in space. They are fast and capable of a little of bit everything needed to make a living on a ship, but need expensive drugs to keep alive.

Removed copy localed assemblies

1.6 Update
In 1.6, turning into a bug is now considerably worse for your mental health.

Update: 9 May, 2024 @ 4:27pm

Update
- Adds voice genes for all three xenotypes, using the sounds from the regular insectoids. Replaces roar voice on all xenotypes.

Update
- Testing out a compatibility patch for [NL] Facial Animations for all three head genes. Works best with the Vanilla Textures Expanded retexture

Update
- Replaces hideous genes on all xenotypes with brand new gene, Insectoid Presence
- Carriers of this gene demonstrate subtle and explicit behaviors that aliken them to a feral insectoid, such as subconscious chittering and twitching erratically. This freaks out people who do not share the same tendencies, but unites those who do, granting an opinion bonus to others with the same gene and a massive opinion malus to those who don't. The kind and the blind are able to look past these odd proclivities.

1.5 Stable Update
- Xenotypes injectable via genetic rewriter no longer complain if they are injected into a different insectoid xenotype.
- Tired of manually creating jelly? Jelly transmutation now has an autocast feature. It only targets food piles and corpses of sufficiently high enough nutrition (that is, 9.0 nutrition, which is a full stack of meals). You can control what your pawn transmutes using the pawn's food policies.

Hotfix - Genetic Rewriter now purges all endogenes before applying the new xenotype. No doubling up on genes here!

1.5 Stable Update
- As we all know getting new pawns of a particular xenotype is particularly tricky and prone to rng in vanilla. Introducing the Genetic Rewriter - Insectoid gene. This gene is given to ALL three insectoid xenotypes and can be used to convert one person to any of the three insectoid xenotypes every 15 days (the victim's ability will also be put on cooldown too). They probably won't like it though!
- Fixed jelly transmutation's ability so that pawns can approach food sources without needing to be drafted and moved closer to it first when using the power. However, in order to prevent this from breaking saves I had to create a newer version of the ability. The old version of the ability will delete itself if it detects the newer ability when you use it.

-Please reset the xenotypes of all insectoid xenotypes in order to get these changes!

Update -
- Introduces three new genes.
- Splice-scarabs now possess Insect Jelly Laborer, which increases work speed when eating jelly. In return for this added mental focus, scarabs have gone from psychically dull to completely deaf!
- Splice-spiders now have Hardened Chitin and Exogelatin, both of which grant armor, the latter only when eating jelly. In return for this added dependence on jelly, splice-spiders now are somewhat poor at cooking, leading to a total metabolism bonus of 0.
- Insect Jelly Bodybuilder swaps out its manipulation bonus with a 20% decrease in melee attack cooldown.
