Lancer

Description
Adds a Lancer variant for campaigns, which use melee combat.

Lancer campaigns are new stories intertwined between vanilla campaigns,
with many hidden interactions across multiple campaigns.

SlugBase slugcats also get their own Lancer variants,
but their story will be unchanged.

More Slugcats lancers will be coming later.
(Trying to select them in Jolly/Arena now will give you normal MSC cats instead)

Common troubleshooting:
If you have Jolly Coop enabled and Lancer campaigns play as normal slugcat, check Jolly Coop settings and click the pup button until it becomes Lancer icon.

[this is why we pay attention to the community before we do something like this]

Hey all, story and script writer here. I'd like to comment on the update to the Monk Lancer Five Pebbles interaction. So, the previous iteration of the dialogue is infamously regarded in the community as the 'slugpup pregnancy dialogue'. Since I haven't been nearly as immersed in the Rain World community for the past few years as I used to be, I wasn't aware of the backlash that it caused until topicular brought the issue up with me recently. It has now, of course, been changed to address the issue, but I would like to dissect the original dialogue to try and explain its intention and why such a glaring issue was overlooked.

(Cont.) To begin, the dialogue and hologram shown by FP were meant to reveal that lancers were actually an alternate stage in the slugcat lifecycle, where separation from a parent colony would cause an individual to never grow larger than a pup and instead develop the signature horn when it reaches adulthood. This is the method by which slugcats would establish new colonies elsewhere- when one colony reaches the carrying capacity of the area, newborn pups would be rejected and the ones that survived on their own would eventually find other lancers to mate with and start a new colony. This added context behind the lancers is not the issue. However, following this, FP makes a joke about ascending being a better choice for the lancer than "getting pregnant" because he doesn't want a slugcat colony starting on his territory. With the benefit of hindsight, I understand why this line was received so negatively and it's entirely my fault for not realizing how it seemed to the average player.
