Improved Mars

Description
Mars is boring.

No, not in real life, but the Stellaris version has no unique deposits, no unique events, and no acknowledgment of the tremendous accomplishment teraforming Mars would represent.

This simple little mod attempts to fix that.

Upon starting a new game, Mars will get the “weak magnetic field” modifier. This looks boring, but it’s accurate to real life, and it also means the mod is working correctly.
When you teraform mars, as any type of empire, it will have a number of custom deposits, named after major terrain features currently on the planet, and their expected natures after Martian teraforming would be accomplished.

Also, if you are playing as the Commonwealth of Man or United Nations of Earth, you will get an event granting you 250 Unity for achieving a longtime dream of Humanity.Credits-I would like to thank Arthur Revan, who went over the mars files and cleaned up some long-standing image glitches (except that the stock game now has mars files, so I removed them for the stock files, clearing up a lot of space. Still a cool guy who did a lot of hard work to make the mod great.)

I will fix it, I just can't FIND it.

@Starshock - I've been making an effort to find what in the code is causing that, and I have NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND IT YET, in spite of spending a good part of Saturday looking.

@csrr Yes, but none that would touch Mars in any way (basically just graphical and ui mods plus one that rebalances vanilla tradition trees). I also turned those off just now to be sure and Mars still doesn't have Terraforming Candidate or Weak Magnetic Field on KotTG Sol.

@RutraNickers - this one should be, but Improved Venus likely isn't, since it uses planet size instead of planet flags.

Is this one and the Improved Venus mods compatible with Sol System 1000 ?

@Starshock- no it is not. I'll look into it. Were you running any other mods?

Mars doesn't seem to get the proper modifiers on it if you play on the Knights of the Toxic God version of Sol, is this intended?

Since you asked- I made Venus terraformable!
