Raptor Hunting Patch

描述
Gives birds of prey the ability to dive on unsuspecting vermin.

In previous versions, only peregrine falcons had the ability to hunt vermin. Since then, more raptors have been added. Unfortunately, they were never given the critical vermin hunting tag. This mod adds that missing tag to the eagle, osprey, kestrel, snowy owl, barn owl, and great horned owl.

This shouldn't have any impact on game balance. Cats are also able to control vermin and can be obtained far more easily than a breeding pair of predatory birds.


Technical details:
- Identified predatory birds in creature_birds_new using the BONE_CARN tag.
- Excluded the kea from this list, as they hunt differently from traditional raptors.
- Added the DIVE_HUNTS_VERMIN tag to each remaining bird, and their giant variations.

@Stogie
They're already carnivores, so removing BENIGN should be enough to make them go after livestock. The same change would also cause tamed giant raptors to attack potential threats instead of flying away. I don't plan on adding that to this mod, as it seems likely to throw off the difficulty curve when starting with savage surroundings.

No idea if this is feasible, but having the giant raptors go after larger prey (like livestock) would be nice and frightening.

The technical aspect is that the birds in the creature_birds_new file that had the bone_carn tag (indicating predatory nature) were given the dive_hunts_vermin tag, with the exception of the kea. Keas are technically predatory birds, but they don't appear to hunt in the same ways as traditional raptors. Peregrine falcons in the classic birds file already had this tag.

I'll add this to the description in a later update. I forgot to apply the tag to the giant versions of each bird, so I need to make a new version anyway.

Cool, I can finally think about a fort without those demon called cats.
Btw, did all the predator birds got the [VERMIN KILLER] tag ? Could be a good idea to put it in the description.
