Pretty simple.

Require a glitter world medicine(or add a craft-able alternative like a "culture precursor"), meat from the animal you want to clone(>25% of the meat you get from butchering it), make success dependent on medicine skill. Gate behind advanced research towards the end of the tech tree.

Take the art assets of a Cryptocasket for placeholder; create unique asset later.

It should be able to clone any of the base game animals(including humans; but at the cost of two medicine; <75 %)

I came up with this idea after realizing you can't breed certain animals such as Megaspider; desperately want an army of them.

Clones come pre-tamed/join the colony.

Potential Balances for cloning humans include gating it behind additional research, giving them a high chance of having at least one severe negative trait, and requiring a higher skill level for successful cloning attempt.

If anyone wants to do this let me know! I'd love to see what you make of this.
I remain Vigilant.
