Kagumi Space Whale [no mods | no dlc | no scrips ]

Look at that!

A Kagumi space whale crosses your path.
This rare species was discovered in 2230 by a space telescope that was pointed at the Rim Sector Gaya for research purposes.
Still little is known about these amazing creatures of the depths of space. A exhibition at Neo Okagi spaceport displays, what scientist have
been albe to discover this far. The Kagumi whales seem to mostly display a calm behaviour as long as they are not disturbed in their majestic tranquillity.
But research vessels reported attacks by the whales when they came too close to them.
It is unknown how long the animals live and what they feed on. However, the existence of a mouth with pronounced teeth suggests that they are carnivores.
Their food source has not been discovered yet...

About the whale:
It is a very hard task to create something organic looking and even more so to make it feel alive.
This is my first try, please dont be to harsh.
The whales have two different behaviors: curious and aggressive.
It will make sounds from time to time.

Curious: Eyes have normal color, they will try to cycle around you, your ship etc.
Aggressive: They will try to aim at you, open their mouth. and their eyes become way more intensive.
if you are unlucky and get right in front of it, the whale will shoot you.

The behaviour is randomised by timers. one cycle can last up to 4min. however if you get within 30m of the whale, it will
try to attack you (most of the time: read below).

Since this is made without scripts the behaviour is based on the drone AI (turret controls).
Therefor (for some strange reason) sometimes the whale will not react.

/// Fix: toggle the turret controls "behavior aggressive / behavior currious" an wait \\\
The Whale may need some time to detect you...
