[Mod suggestion] Mechanite hives

[RemingtonRyder]

This came to me while I was hauling today's shopping back.

We have insect hives, and they're pretty bad news, but... what if there were mechanite hives too?

Tiny little robots, cheerfully nomming steel, what could possibly go wrong?

Well, for one thing, they might encounter an insect hive and decide to... um... improve it.

Cyborg insect hives, yo.

i think i could whip up something that would let hives spawn mechanoids,  but i have no idea how to let the game use it with just XML, (changing/adding events requires C#)i can add in new mechanoids or cyborgs, but getting the game to use them correctly might end up being rather tricky.

hmm,  i might be able to add in a new mechanoid pawn that would spawn tiny bots that would eat all your steel, but im not sure if the game will take kindly to me stuffing XML from hives into a pawn,  but i can try,  i can't do the improving and Borgifying though,  thats something that would require C#, all i can do is XML
