Discontinued. Thank you for your support thusfar. I no longer have the time nor capability to work on Nabbers anymore.

To make it explicitly clear, I lack the motivation to continue this project now. It is to be considered dead-in-the-water, and although functional, is probably best ripped apart for some of the other changes present within it.

About The Pull Request

No longer extremely modular due to incoming changes involving how blood & blood splattering works, which require nonmodular changes to a single file to ensure that all blood splatters created from living mobs util the new system.

This PR adds Nabbers, a new species which is also known by "Giant Armoured Serpentids". They are primarily a large, bulky predator species with a thick, natural chitin layer that prevents them from wearing most human clothing.

Subject to heavy balance.

Also fixes & helps mitigate a few hard-dels unrelated to the PR in question.

Now also adds Personal Stun Gloves to account for the inability to use batons/etc! They're a weaker variation of stunbaton that is still subject to heavy change and balancing.

Why It's Good For The Game

Nabbers are cool.
Regardless if nabbers are made a playable species or not, this ports a huge amount of content (and adds a ton more custom) like the ability to customise species blood colours when bleeding.

Also the Shartrat offset system but thats been cobbled together and needs replacing at some point.

DISCLAIMER. NABBERS ARE UNFINISHED, THINGS SUCH AS SPRITES FOR ITEMS/ETC WILL USUALLY DEFAULT TO SOMETHING BASIC, AND/OR BE OFFSET WEIRDLY. DO NOT MAKE A GITHUB ISSUE REPORT FOR THESE - INSTEAD USE THE NABBER FEEDBACK THREAD, THANK YOU!

-Made this larger and easily understandable ^

Total progress is:
~75% done for Core Mechanics
[X]Custom Blood Colors
[X]Item Offsets
[X]Racial Abilities, GAGS config, generic code
[X]Correcting RUEng
[X]Permanently Flammable
[X]Cross Compatability with Satyr PR - Utilises #IFDEF to ensure TRAIT_HARD_SOLES exists and applies it retroactively.
[X]Bladearm Sharpening - TBD: Make traitor item or not.
[X]Moving brute reduction -> armor (Significantly less powerful)
[?]Balance passes
[ ]Respriting/adding ponchos for various departments

~40% done for Spritework
[X] GAGs config and fallbacks
[X] GAGs fallback icons
[X] Custom spritework - Full credits and thanks to Dimwhat for respriting their base grayscales! They look amazing!
[ ] Custom clothing
[ ] Better solutions for offsets
[ ] Fire/husk sprites
[ ] Custom footprint sprites

--CUSTOM MECHANICS DETAILS--

Naturally Spaceproof - No exosuit slot. No armor wearing.
Strange Hands - Clumsy Hands by default, cannot use batons/guns/etc
Strange Physiology - Cannot wear a majority of armor/goggles!
Naturally flammable - Will catch fire if exposed to flame or laser, and/or explosions.
Natural Armor - Now uses the armor system. Strong against melee, medium against bullets and wounds along with acid.
Chitin-breather - will suffocate if set on fire
Blade-arms - Natural weapons. Can be sharpened at the cost of making you appear murderous on examine.
Extreme Burn Weakness: Takes almost 2x burn (1.8) from all attacks, along with a 2.5x modifier for hot atmos!

-Traitor (So far)

-Medical

-Engineering

-Security

-Research

-Cargo

could probably be testmerged without any problems.
