Space Fauna Expansion & Advanced Ascensions

If you find this mod helpful or enjoyable, a positive rating would be greatly appreciated. QwQ Ravaging Swarm: With unified mutation templates and behavioral directives, your spaceborne beasts will sweep across the stars like a living tide. Unlocks repeatable technologies that grant 6 additional mutation slots, greatly enhancing biological fleet size, capture efficiency, and breeding power. Abandons the use of regular ships and focuses entirely on space fauna. Transcendent Biomorphs (Advanced Ascension): Completely abandons artificial ships. Space fauna consume double naval capacity. Elevates your beasts to a form beyond guidance—each pulse and cell a perfect answer to the limits of evolution. Unlocks repeatable technologies for 28 more mutation slots and provides enhancements to range, evasion, armor, shielding, and regeneration. Cloning costs increase drastically. Celestial Behemoths (Advanced Ascension): Recreate the ancient titans that once roamed the void. Declare the end of the age of steel, and the rise of life. Unlocks juggernaut-class fauna: Crystal Core Entity, Space Amoeba Centenarians, Tiyanki Matriarch, Orbicutholoid, and Voidworms Rat King. Each type of space fauna has its own unique mutation components. To unlock them, you must construct a certain number of regular space fauna of the corresponding species. This will also unlock unique mutations for their associated behemoths — advanced versions of the unique mutations used by regular space fauna.
