v2.1.9_Switcher

Changes compared to 2.1.8, excluding intermediate updates.

Feature:
- Added preferred xenotypes tweak. (Optional in settings. Enabled by default.)
- Geneline chimera genes now have a special mark in chimera editor.
- Added new hivemind gene - Overrided hivemind. Self-overrider gene with hivemind flag.
- Added new hivemind gene - Traits copy. Copies the traits of all hivemind pawns from time to time.
- Added new hivemind gene - Hivemind gestator. Can gestate a baby of any xenotype as hivemind drone.
- Added new hivemind gene - Shielded drone. Pawns with this gene have no influence on the hivemind.
- The sync node now displays hyperlinks to pawns currently in the hivemind.
- Added new gene - Switcher. A simplified version of the morpher that only works with xenotypes that have this gene.
- Addede new switcher sub-gene - Switched implanter. Allows implantation of the selected xenotype. A switcher is required to select.
- Added new implanter sub-genes - Post-regrow. Using a post-implanter or implanter removes genes regrowing, but increases the target's genes regrowing for the same amount of time.

Changes:
- Several unused old def items have been marked as legacy. Old saves may show a few non-critical red errors about these items. This can be safely ignored.
- Now pawns with psi sensitivity less than 20% cannot trigger the effects of hivemind genes, but are still considered part of the hivemind and can be affected by the effects of other pawns.
* With 0% psi sensitivity, pawns will still not be considered part of the hivemind.
- Hive maker, hivemind beauty, hivemind study, hive xeno-increased, and shared genes have been nerfed. These genes no longer trigger hivemind synchronization, but are still considered hivemind genes.
* Hive maker has been moved to the reimplanter category.
* Hive xeno-increased has been buffed. It now has -20 genes instead of -21.
- The chimera now has a metabolism limit from -5 to +5. This can be changed in the settings.
- Pawn psi sensitivity now affects the effectiveness of the shared food and shared thoughts genes.
- The Chimera gene has been significantly nerfed. A limit on archite genes has been added. (Optional in settings. Enabled by default.)
* The limit can be increased with "archite capsules" (right-click on the capsule while selecting the chimera pawn).
* The base limit is determined by the amount of archites in the endogenes, so some xenotypes will have a starting limit higher than 1.
* This is calculated as endo-archites * 0.12
* The cost is calculated not by the number of archite genes, but by their archite-biostats.
* This means that genes with negative archites will increase the limit.
* As a reminder, the limit can be disabled in the mod settings!
- The metalkin and ferrkind xenotypes have been updated to require charging instead of food and can be switched between each other.
- Recharge genes now increase max nutrition. This should make it less annoying in situations where access to a charger is impossible or difficult.
- Undead gene again displays resurrection delay on corpse. Yay!
- Now the mechaskin disables corpse rotting. (Does not affect genes in old saves.)

Fixes:
- Fixed a bug where if started a new game after several hours on an old save, some precepts would update significantly less frequently than expected.
- Fixed a bug that prevented sync node from going into cooldown after manual use.

Warnings:
- Support for 1.4 has ended. Please use the older GitHub version, or better yet, upgrade to the latest one. Time does not stand still, old man.
