Roaches!

Description
Adds a small roach to the game based off of the Cockroaches in the Insects! mod.
(Important: if playing this alongside the Insects! mod, make sure to put this mod after it in the load order)

These little pests are truly tiny, the size of something like a jungle roach! Their larval stages are so small that they require the Camera+ mod to see properly. Their stats have been reduced across the board to match their new size, but their reproductive capacities have skyrocketed. Their eggs only take 2.5 days to develop.

So now, the question becomes: why do I need a tiny little pest that breeds like literal crickets and provides hardly any meat? Well the answer is, the meat isn't for you. It's for the wild animals that need to hunt in whatever cage you've trapped them in. This mod is designed as a way to provide fast-regenerating food sources for wild animals with no other means of eating. See: Desperate Hunger

If you see these on your map at the start of the game, it is recommended that you either build a cage around them to use them as a food source for your warg pack, or exterminate them before the swarm of pests gets out of hand.

Also, one should beware should they have to face a manhunter pack of these! One or two roaches alone won't do much, but a pack can quickly overwhelm your colonists with their barrage of quick attacks. :)
