This mod aims to make several changes and QoL adjustments to the Rhyniognatha.

Current Features -Ability to change resin projectile class and cost. -Ability to change resin armor cost and damage resistance. -Ability to change melee damage multiplier.

Planned Features -Add/Remove possible food items from impregnated dino's -Adjust projectile range/damage to be scaled by melee. -Improve the stat scales for dino's impregnated by the Rhyniognatha -Prevent dino's from being killed when a Rhyniognatha hatches from it.

Not all of the above may be possible without making a separate mod that remaps the Rhyniognatha.
