Traits: Predators and Prey

Each species has their primitive ancestors they evolved from, some evolve from apex predators and some evolve from little more than sluggish herd animals.

More traits will be added as the mod is built up, and I'll add in proper icons when I figure out how to do that.

Traits are as follows:


Pack Predator

Cost = 2
-50% Army Upkeep Cost
+10% Navy Size
-50% Ship build cost

Pack Predators evolved from predators who hunted in packs, I felt this is shown in the lowered upkeep costs, larger ship navy size, and a lower ship building cost.

Pursuit Predator

cost = 2

+50% Army Morale
+50% Ship Speed Multiplier
+25% Survey Speed

Pursuit Predators evolved from predators who hunt by relentlessly chasing after their prey, until their prey eventually collapse from exhaustion, I felt this is best shown by the ship speed increase, increased survey speed, and increased morale

Ambush Predator

Cost = 3
+15% Weapon Damage
+50% Sensor Range
+20% Evasion Chance

Ambush Predators evolved from sneaky predators who would ambush prey, this is shown by the increased evasion chance, sensor range, and higher damage output.

Apex Predator

Cost = 3
+50% Weapon Damage
+50% Fire Rate
-10 Xenophobia

Apex Predators are basically the absolute top of the food chain, this is shown by the rediciulous damage output increase, but to attempt to balance it out I added an increase to xenophobia, as they should see themselves as superior to all other species in the galaxy, its only natural if youre at the top of the food chain.

Prey

Cost = -4
+5% Other Species Happiness
-10% Ship Weapon Damage
-50% Army Morale
-10% Army Damage

Prey is pretty simple, this species evolved from nothing more than prey, they are peaceful, thus the increase to other species happiness and hard hit to all their military stats

Herd Prey

Cost = -3
-10 Xenophobia
-80% Army Health
-50% Ship Evasion
-10% Ship Fire Rate

Herd Prey are basically communal, but relatively weak alone, this is shown by the lower evasion, and lower army health/ship fire rate, and to represent the communal factor I added a -10 to xenophobia, making them like xenos more than the average species.

Gatherers

Cost = -3
-15% Slave Food Output
-10% Food Output

Gatherers gathered food around them, rather than grow it themselves, this is shown by the lower food output they get no matter how you paint it.

NEW TRAITS:

Swarmborn

Cost = 3

-75% Less Food Required
+10% Habitability
-30% Production w/out slaves

The Idea here is you have a fast reproducing swarm race, thats dependant on others to do work for them, much like a hive.

Invasive Species

Cost = 3
+50 Habitability
-15% Migration Time
-30% Other Species Happiness

Another swarm-type line of idea here, this race is essentially the terror of worlds, being able to adapt to any environment and overwhelm it, creating a high migratory nature, and really giving them bad relations with other species who are unfortunate enough to live alongside this horror of nature. (Note, I made Swarmborn and Invasive Species incompatable with one another, combining the two would just be overwhelmingly horrific)


Venomous

Cost = 2
+5% Army Damage
+10% Ship Weapon Damage

This species has venomous fangs, used to subdue prey, I represented this by a small damage buff. Probably one of my more balanced traits thus far.

Weak Immunity

Cost = -2
-20% Army Health
-30% Ship Hitpoints

This species is basically really delicate, really sensitive to their environment, leading to general weakness in their armies and interestingly enough, their ship designs.
