About this mod
Adds a mantis incubator cannon to the game, spawning mantises on impact. Includes a modified incinerator, mantis grenades, mantis mines and mantis explosives. I didn't work much on it because I didn't even know if it's a good idea, let me know about what should I add

Hi, I had the idea to create a mantis spawner.
The idea came from Skyrim, where there are these spider things with different effects, and from Fallout 4, with the syringer gun making a bloatly spawn on the death of the target. Originally I wanted to make a bloatfly cannon, but then I opted for mantises instead, partially because there's a TKs Mantis mod
So what does this weapon does? Well it shoots mantis eggs, making Mantis nymphs spawn. They have 1 hp and they disappear on death so that the places don't get overcluttered with mantises corpses. The mantises are venomous, and they poison target on hits. These weapons are best used against enemies in interiors but are completely inefficient against robots.
I didn't work on this much, but if you like the concept of this mod, I'll likely add an update to it, adding new types of mantises. The ammo and the grenades are craftables on campfires, requiring a mantis egg of course. You can find the weapons next to the schoolhouse in Goodsprings, and yes, they respawn.
Oh, and lately I didn't manage to work on the things I wanted to work on, due to the lack of time and other more important things coming up in my life. So could you send me some comforting messages in the comments? Something to help me mentally? I don't feel that well lately and any support would be welcome
I know I say that a lot, but life is a lot of ups and downs, and I love creating mods even for an outdated game, this feels like a safe space for me, and even though I'm not completely good at it, I love creating an idea that I have in my mind. With that, enjoy the mod
