Description
Adds the Phosphoid species with RaceTraits. Body sprites are Novakids with neon chickenpox. Some assets are poorly modified from my favorite mod races: Lyru, Saturnians, Kyterrans, Peglaci, Trink and others. Please support them and play those! RaceTraits allows them to properly glow and burn like a little nova. They also function like walking bug zappers so good luck netting those! They regenerate plasma but eat more fuel, are immune to many things, for example breathing, but will eventually take damage if submerged in water for too long. Their incandescent gas bodies are filled with phosphite crystals which they concentrate into designs that serve as faces, much like Novakids wear. Instead of a Brand they call it a Mark, and sometimes they change them, being eccentric and often undergoing personality shifts. This explains away the obnoxious colors I used for their palette. For armor and clothes, I edited some vanilla items that I didn't see too often in the base game. You can jinx the clothes and hex the armor at two new crafting tables. You can also hex some badly recolored weapons and building materials as well as EPPs. Lastly, use Phosphoid plasma magic to transmute several crafting items, and phosphorize water, meat and some produce into Phosphoil or Phosphite.

I didn't want to spawn ores all over the place as there are so many kinds already. Use the Assimilator to make Plasma Reactors. Those will passively generate more phosphite crystals. You can also convert meat, robotic veggies and Lumen/Lavabulb from the Saturn/Kyterran mods if you have those installed. You need a Phosphorizer for those. The HexTable has a recipe to make phosphite too. It's like transmutation magic maybe?

how do you get more of the crystals?? can you dig them up like you can with the ore's or do they just randomly come into your inventory??

Thank you for noticing. My lack of sprite skill is covered up by explaining, well, these guys are made of radiation and don't have eyes. Therapeutically, they help me with OCD by making me feel they would WANT an asymmetrical house. I have trouble designing non-symmetrical buildings..

The deliberate crispiness of everything tickles me.
