Thrumbo Companionship

Description
Makes tamed thrumbos better, acting as pets and pack animals.

Thrumbos are some of the hardest animals to tame and also extremely intelligent. I wanted them to be a little special and have more interaction with the colony.

Features:
- Colonists can nuzzle with Thrumbos every 12 hours
- Thrumbos can be sheared every 60 days (1 year) for 180 ThrumboFur
- Thrumbos can be loaded as pack animals, with adults carrying 140kg
- Recolored thrumbo-specific saddlebag sprite
- Thrumbos are named when tameda
- Extra 60kg of capacity when used with VEF (Thanks to Vaphal)

Aims for compatibility and non-breaking changes to the game, though untested with many mods.

It is recommended to unpack any packed thrumbos before uninstalling.

@Vaphal

Thanks for this. Added, will be up shortly. I never played with VEF but this seems like a good change

If VEF is loaded adds 60Kg to the thrumbos Caravan carry capacity.

oh thank god i thought this mod was talking about something else

@LZIM I have not tested it. My guess is that while it wouldn't break, it almost definitely only affects vanilla thrumbos and not the royal variants.

@MrMistoffeleez This isn't really feasible without other side effects. First off, Dromedaries have a 73.5kg capacity.
Caravan carrying capacity is determined by a creature's body size stat. Increasing a Thrumbo's body size would make it more resistant to melee stagger, affect their toxic buildup rate, affect food consumption, and increase body heat generation.
Basically there is too much stuff that this could affect so I don't want to touch this stat.

Only suggest is to up the carry weight as pack animals, I think camels can carry more rn and Thrumbos are like, twice their size
