After an extra extra long hiatus, I've updated the mod so that it actually works. There's a 15% chance 3 Arsplice now spawn in the Deathlands. Upon death they'll drop an Arsplice Seed.

At the time of making this mod, Arsplice Seeds weren't in the game and I took some creative liberties to imagine them as this energy source powering these ancient machines still patrolling the ruins.

Now that the game is more fleshed out, Arsplice Seeds are a food and a plant from what I can see.

I'll have to come back and edit this mod again to try and make it more accurate with the game.

Added an LAS to the Arsplice. Now it will attempt to stay withing shooting range of the character and only resort to melee if the character is adjacent to it.
