Vanilla Expanded - Raccoon's Patch

Patches a number of Vanilla Expanded mods to make various changes and additions.
Adjusts balance, removes bloat, changes research requirements, turns VAE Accessories against you, kills your bonded rat and shatters your save into a million pieces (just kidding... unless?)

This is a personal patch I'm sharing as part of learning how to make simple Rimworld mods, and as such is liable to occasionally stop working entirely (because I suck) and randomly erase or heavily change content in your game (because I don't like it). I am not liable for any ruined saves.

Load after all of your Vanilla Expanded mods. I didn't make any attempt to rearrange research, so your tech tree will look wonky unless you have an autogenerated research tree mod, such as those recommended below:

ResearchPal - Forked, for 1.3.
ResearchPowl, for 1.4.
Research Tree (Continued), for 1.5.

Here's a pastebin with the full changelist.[pastebin.com]

In summary:
Vanilla Apparel Expanded - Accessories:
- Some of the accessories have been rebalanced (i.e nerfed), especially the ranged shield belt.
- Accessories see wider use outside your colony.

Vanilla Weapons Expanded:
- Many of the changes from Clean Vanilla Expanded. Many garbage-tier low-tech weapons have been removed, and so have the "tool" weapons. Smoke grenades are more accessible. Some minor weapon balance tweaks.
- Additionally, research requirements have been made friendlier, removing some timewastes to unlock weapons that are designed as sidegrades (such as Specialized Firearms and Designated Marksman Rifle - you now unlock those weapons via Precision Rifling)

Vanilla Furniture Expanded:
- Security: Artillery is now slightly more accurate than a regular mortar. It also requires the use of a reinforced barrel, if that option is enabled.

Vanilla Factions Expanded - Mechanoids:
- Drones research prerequisite is Fabrication, not Factory Basics. Buildable combat mechanoids stats better match their appearance - they're faster, their tankiness is in armor over raw HP, and overall they more resemble a makeshift Lancer and up-armored Scyther. They may be somewhat less effective at facetanking (specifically the ranged mech) but more versatile as they don't take six years to get across the map.

TODO:
- More debloat and balance? Maybe? I dunno.

FAQ:

Q: Do I need the expansions?
A: No! Royalty and Ideology are patched only if they're active.

Q: There's an error about jade throwing rocks?
A: There's a Vanilla Expanded achievement for making jade throwing rocks. I removed throwing rocks. I'll probably make a patch to remove that achievement.

Q: I loaded up an old save and there's a lot of red text?
A: That's probably just the throwing rocks, wrenches and hatchets being erased from existence. Probably nothing to worry about. I hope.

Q: Your patches broke my game?
A: I warned you! Sorry, I'll try and make it not break things.

Q: I disagree with your changes?
A: I encourage you to make your own patch(es)! This is specifically made to adjust things to how I like them. That said, if you can convince me that I would prefer it another way, then sure.

Q: Can you change X?
A: You can always make a suggestion! I'm willing to make more patches and I might even already be planning to change that.

Q: Is this CE compatible?
A: I don't know. I don't use CE and am not going to add specific compatibility if needed, sorry.
