Playable Swarm

2/9/19: Updated for 2.2.4 patch. This update removes the Swarm Genetics trait and consolidates most of its perks into the Swarm Brood trait. There will not be any updates to this mod in the future outside of bugfixes for the current version for 2.2.4.


---------------------------------------------------------
This mod adds a trait for Swarm-style gameplay and has a bunch of Swarm-related features, including:

1. A custom Swarm species complete with a ship set, city, 2 name lists, and 31 portraits.

2. The Swarm Brood trait, which makes the player's empire even more like the Swarm and dramatically changes how the empire works. At the start of the game, the Prethoryn Vanguard arrives and the player's country type is changed to be like the regular Swarm. The Swarm country type has these features:

• Can not initiate contact with other empires
  
• Has the ability to infest planets with Infestors (but can't build structures on these planets)
  
• Can travel anywhere and attack anyone
  
• Gains Swarm fleets in waves

3. 10 new ascension perks:

• Improved Regeneration - Increases monthly ship hull regeneration by 10% and replaces the Biological Immortality edict with an improved version that costs no influence
  
• Stronger Enzymes - Increases kinetic and explosive weapon damage by 10%
  
• True Swarm - Makes it so your yearly reinforcement fleet is as large as the one that the regular Swarm gets, and makes Queens generate Swarm ships
  
• Terror - Makes it so non-Swarm planets are given reduced happiness for 1 year after your fleets enter a system
  
• Hardened Carapace - Increases ship armor by 10%
  
• Scourge - Increases ship speed by 10%
  
• Overmind - Increases unity and influence generation by 5% each. Also gives a slight chance for Swarm ships you defeat to join you, and when the AI Swarm's injured queen is discovered, you gain a special project that gives you complete control of their ships and planets (only works if the AI Swarm is summoned via Subspace Echoes).
  
• Subspace Echoes - Triggers the begininngs of the Prethoryn Scourge crisis (provided it hasn't started already)
  
• Hunt the Hunters - Increases damage against Sentinels, the Shroud, and Extradimensionals by 25%
  
• Improved Vision - Increases the weapons range of your ships by 10%

This mod doesn't replace any default files and should be compatible with most other mods. The ship set is compatible with Stellar Expansion: Voidcraft's custom ships.

Known issues:

• The Prethoryn ship set is out of date and missing ships. I recommend using (-NSC2 Addon: Extra Shipsets-) instead.
