Biter Eggs

Adds biter egg nests to the map in addition to normal biter bases. When destroyed they will release a number of either evolution appropriate biters/spitters or worms.

Mod Features ==========

• The biter egg nests can have their frequency set with a simple mod setting, ranging from rare to everywhere.
• When a biter egg nest is destroyed either biters/spitters or worms will be released based on mod chance settings. If an egg nest contains biters/spitters it is either all biters or spitters.
• The number of biters/spitters or worms is based on a configurable min/max range for the small and large biter egg nest sizes. They must be able to fit in to the area around the nest.
• All enemy types will be evolution appropriate and match the games current evolution ranges.
• Killing egg nests does not increase evolution and they only react when killed.
• Egg nests are on the enemy team and so will be targeted by turrets and players auto target fire.

Mod Compatibility =======

• If BigWinter mod is present the egg nests have a snowy feel to them.
