Basic moments

[b]The mod was made for fun, so there was no hard link to the balance, but in theory Vanilla friendly came out, the mod itself adds:

1: The mantis pet is a smaller version of the mantis with a blue tint.

2: The three stages of growth of the mantis egg, in fact, do not differ much from raptor eggs, you can buy either from a "researcher" or from a cult dealer for 200.

3: A mantis pet egg, with the last skill of the first assistant branch, can be crafted from a mantis egg of any stage + a piece of dementonite, also sold with a small chance from a rare trader "researcher" with a starting price of 650.
4: A slight change in the Russian localization.

So far, these are all the main changes, but in the future it is planned to add a mission to destroy the mantis nest, because the developers forgot to do it

Mantis

[b]Firstly, this pet is not so much a fighting one as a cutie to raise the mood of the team and a walking wardrobe :3

The fact is that the mantis pet has an inventory of only 3 universal slots, but besides there is a place for a hat and even a backpack, with which it becomes a full-fledged wardrobe, only running, cute, and sometimes taking the main damage when attacked by all sorts of crawlers and mudraptors.

If your pet has suffered at the hands of some scoundrels, then there is one pleasant improvement, unlike the vanilla raptor-pet mantis-pet has a full-fledged treatment window where a medic can examine and cure it!
