Gendered Genes 2

Adds some sexual dimorphism to xenotypes by making it possible to have a gene only apply to one gender, or leave it at the default vanilla way of applying the gene to everyone of that xenotype. If a gene is not applicable to a pawn due to this it is merely deactivated, meaning that these genes are still inheritable as normal, keeping their gender information. If a gene has a prerequisite, like bloodfeeder, then the prerequisite must be unisex, otherwise it won't count.

To set the gender for a gene simply click the little buttons to the left of the gene in the xenotype creation dialog window. The "/" is for unisex (default, applied to both genders as in vanilla), "M" is male only and "F" is for female only.

Q: Why not update the old mod to include this as a 1.6 version?
A:
- This mod works with a completely different approach from the previous version
- This mod behaves differently in a lot of ways
- The visuals are different
- The versions are not compatible between save games

For these reasons I decided that posting this as a sequel was better

Q: What's different to the previous version?
A:
- Better visuals
- Changes to how genes are deactivated/overridden
- Male and female pawns of the same xenotype should always have the same metabolism
- Works better with other mods that move genes around
- Added dependency on Vanilla Expanded Framework

Q: Can it be added to or removed from an existing save?
A:
Adding: Probably
Removing: I don't recommend it
Either way: Always back up your save file. Be responsible.

Q: How do genes override each other when gendered genes are involved?
A:
If one gene is male only and one is female only then they can't override each other. One will still be deactivated depending on a pawns gender, but both will always contribute to metabolism. Otherwise it's just like vanilla, though in the xenotype creation screen gendered genes will always show as not being overridden, which is just a visual bug. It will work correctly in the game. (This means a male only gene can override a unisex gene, even if they are on a female pawn and vice versa)
