This mod makes possible finishing the game without harming any critters.
You can now research and craft pentapod eggs and biter eggs by using various minerals from other planets and nutrients..
Enables ending the game without harming living creatures.
Adds 2 new researches (unlocks Synthetic pentapod eggs and Synthetic Biter eggs):
Adds 2 new recipes to create both
Note: This doesn't make it easier, quite the opposite since the recipes aren't quite easy to unlock/craft and Vulcanus demolishers are unaffected
Note: The research images were AI-generated (use is allowed).
============

You can see a succesful run using this mod here. I only fought asteroids and focused on space mining for resources.
*** World preset: RAIL WORLD.
* Guerilla mining on vulcanus was used to get the basic resources (Shai hulud can hear the vibrations)
* A single captive biter spawner was captured [ Needed for research progression] but then ultimately the biters "released" it humanely back into the wild while the engineer ran for the hills. (Biter status: annoyed but unharmed)
* Gleba was farmed for fruit and the Synthetic eggs mod was used to generate the needed science (We made a lot of omlettes but no "chickens" were harmed)
* Upon finishing up, Most of the bases were scuttled (can't completely un-colonyse a planet in this game)
* Almost all of the ships were sent flying into the sun once their job was complete.
