Yautja = Predators, having much greater skill, strength, technology and pain tolerance.

In regards to food, maybe a form of Feeding Pool could be constructed that breaks down most food items into a generic nutrient jelly?

Another addition to warrior caste stealth is that if they enter melee range without being detected, their first attack could be either a critical hit that bypasses most armor and does double damage,  or a incapacitating attack that if successful knocks out/disables the target for easy capture. but is dependent on the targets melee skill, vision and the like.

Eggs could act as traps with little to no research early game, but factions would wise up or know about the facehuggers in the eggs, being able to counter them or simple just shoot the egg and facehugger to pieces. One new research could be a way to adapt certain eggs to being very difficult to distinguish from the resin around it.


A potential optional addon to the mod when its polished and complete would be a Predator hidden faction that acts as an end game threat, having extremely high armor, health, pain tolerance and weaponry but if you where able to incapacitate one without it exploding could create a form of champion Predalien xenomorph and/or unlocking high end improvements to the baseline xeno.

Additionally, would this mod be better with, or without Combat Extended?.

One way drones the drones could excell is the ability to haul faster, repair resin structures and vomit sticky resin on downed creatures which would make them unable to run/fight back and secondly it could cause a unique form of medical treatment which would stop the creature from suffering blood loss or wound infection. and either accelerating wound heal rate, or not changing it at all. Meaning the wound would heal at the rate as if it wasn't treated at all.

Enemy raids against the hive could have apparel types that resist against facehugging, potential egg upgrade that makes them suitable for using them as a single use trap? Drone caste could have a short range weak spit, which could either be upgraded/drones could be upgraded to a dedicated spitter caste with higher range spit with more damage, would mostly be used for skirmishing/softening up targets before direct combat.

Warrior caste could have a form of stealth that changes depending on terrain/enemy skill/light level?

Drones could also act as a form of weak doctor, able to patch up minor to moderate injuries.
