Adds a more versatile spidertron alternative with custom graphics.
It changes the original spidertron's rocket launchers for ones that need less ammo and can be just as powerfull if used correctly.

The assault spidertron has slightly better health.
Also uses chemical fuels (coal, wood, rocket fuel, etc.) insted of nuclear fuel cells.

List of weapons:
- High caliber cannon (uses artillery ammo and has a minimum range)
- Flame thrower
- Machine gun
(The intention was to have a high caliber weapon when approaching enemy bases, destroy the spawners with the flame thrower and retreat while using the machine gun in auto-firing mode)

Feel free to post suggetions but please be patient.
I'm working in my spare time on this and factorio modding is new for me.

Known problems (To-Fix list)
- The color overlay is a bit too bright
- The machine gun sometimes hits the legs when firing (does not do damage, just does not look so pretty)
- Crafting cost is not yet perfectly balanced - might be too cheap
- Remnants and shadows use original spidertron graphics
