OWB Tech Expansion Materials Expansion

Description
OWB TEME is primarily a Resource-focused sub-submod and unofficial addon for OWB Tech Expansion by Silverfishv9, a large technology overhaul.

As such, I've attempted to update various UI's and effects to 5.1's tech tree and cleaned up a few files that weren't implemented for 5.1. If I've irrevocably broken something, please feel free to shout at me about it.

However, the meat of this mod adds to the Resource Exploitation technologies by adding upgradeable, era-specific and resource-adding bonus technologies to each of the resource paths, as well as adding an involved late-game process to create Advanced Components and Composite Materials of your own once you've advanced far enough, however to make these factories you'll need to go through a lengthy process of research and experimentation, and upgrading them to their fullest potential will require you to have a robust science team, though the breakthroughs you'll make along the way might be considered worth it.

Note, it also changes the Sentry Bots' icons to be more lore accurate, as well as adding in AT-specialist troopers to the frontline (OWB uses "Anti-tank infantry" in the code for their Combined Arms unit, this unit is a pure AT unit) as well as standardizing more units that use anti-tank weapons to get buffs from anti-tank techs.

This mod is less of an independent mod than it is combining the inspirations two and a half independent mods gave me together and making them all work nice with the ideas behind Tech Expansion, and if any of the credited authors wish for me to take this mod down for being too closely-inspired by their own mods I'll do so ASAP.

Also, it's probably not going to be compatible with a lot of stuff that alters the files these mods touch without a compatibility patch, but there will be a few listed down below, though you should download the Ultimate Tech Compatibility Mod.

Disclaimer: Since I'm paranoid about downloading things, it's fine to make a translation submod of any of my mods, just give credit or use this mod as a dependency.

slight issue with the new OWB update replacing one of the power armor gear with a stat boosting tech instead
