Code: [Select]

01/20/2017 - VERSION 0.1.1
-> Now up to 20 bugs can be spawned, proportional to the number of crops on the colony
-> Cropeaters have more "sharp" armor, meaning they will resist more against bullets and such
-> They now have a chance to become manhunter, but their attack is weak (but can be effective when in large numbers)

This mod replaces the "Blight" event with a new "Pests!" event.
Reason: the blight event is unliked because it suddenly kills your farms arbitrarily, and you can't do anything about it.
Now, instead of blight, a number of cropeating insects (a mutated form of the megascarab) will invade your farm and eat your plants until they are killed.

SUMMARY:
-> Replaces the blight event, but I didn't alter the chance of happening;
-> Adds a new insect, the Cropeater. They aren't aggressive and can be killed easily.

Great idea! This is not only more balanced but also more interesting than blight.

i think this is a step in the right direction. blight is a good event in that it introduces some random hazards to botany but not being able to mitigate its effects at all is a bit of a bummer.

Will this work in hydroponic rooms too? I hope so...i think...

[Serpyderpy]

Thank you for this. The Blight event is incredibly annoying, in real life crops don't just wither and vanish from existence almost immediately when hit with a plague. This makes it a lot more interesting to deal with.

First Set up camp, then camping stuff and now this? Goddam awesome!

[sledrave]

Just wanted to say, this is a small addition, but it makes a world of difference. Thanks!

[Madman666]

Exactly! Mysterious blight, yeah. Mysterious my ass! Now crops don't just suddenly dissapear into thin air and we have something actually responsible for that, something we can put a bullet in. Beyond awesome. Genius ideas are simple.

[hwfanatic]

Kill it with fire! 
A nice addition.

[WoodyDaOcas]

Excellent ! Thank you very much

[RazorHed]

This is wonderful.

 I think blight should still be active though but only if it works differently. It should only affect one crop at a time and only spreading to other crops if they are close enough for long enough , and not just disappear your plants.  You should get a warning about your so and so crop looking strange. Which would give you time to fight it off , sort of like fighting a fire.
You should have to decide whether or not you want to battle the blight , let the crop die, keep it from spreading to nearby crops.

[vlad_1492]

Yeah, all plants of all kinds getting blighted is odd.

Now have some mutate and attack the farmers by surprise...

Day of the Triffids is one of my favorite movies.
