Update: Jul 14 @ 10:03am

1.6 Update Summary:
-Redid a lot of the backend of the mod to use more of the features of the HAR framework and make it easier to update/maintain. The defs have had some reorganizing and commenting done to make it easier to quickly patch them (if you're another modder) or drop new stuff into the mod with just a few lines of XML and a copy/paste.
-The file structure is completely different now and the defs no longer have 'pointlessly gendered' identical head type duplicates. *This seems to cause save files to arbitrarily get nuked. Beware.
-Removed the anthro scenario; it's no longer needed. Anthros now generate naturally at game start and pretty much anywhere you'd generate a human pawn. Slaves, refugees, missions, raiders.
-Divided anthros into 'subraces'. They should all be able to interbreed and such, and have identical stats (for now, part of the benefit of this update is that this can be individually tweaked). Not only should this help anthro children end up in the game general vicinity of the animal kingdom as at least one parent, but it allows you to use the little alien button next to the 'randomize' button at colonist selection to specifically generate one particular kind of anthro - no character edit needed!
-Added mask layers (colored eyes) for skull anthros.

Bugfixing:
-Removed the Anthro Scenario; 1.6 changed how scenarios are structured, breaking some saves, and it was obsolete with the above changes.
-Moved some 'Backstory Tags' in the Pawnkind def file back into the right place. Weirdly, this either wasn't a problem until 1.6 or it somehow got moved without us updating the mod. Before 1.6, the backstory tags were working as defined and didn't cause an error, so.. Weird.

P.S. I do feel bad if any precious pawns got nuked, but the alternative was deeper spaghetti code. Hopefully right at the start of a new version isn't the worst time to nuke some saves.
