Social species (deer 0.8, wolf 0.6, chicken 0.55, boar 0.3) now school together:
AnimalDecisionSystem scans nearby same-species neighbours (HerdScan) and, when
wandering, a lone social animal steers toward the herd centroid (cohesion) while
close members just mill about (separation). "Safety in numbers" shrinks the
threat-detection radius in a group, so herded prey are calmer and scatter less.
Asocial animals (sociability < 0.3) keep the old random wander. GeneSociability
+ trait; `animal` console prints insulation/sociability. Build + --check-content
clean (42 genes, 41 traits). Not GUI-verified.

GeneEggLaying (species-fixed) selects the conception cycle: viviparous animals
carry to a live birth (existing path); oviparous animals, after the same gravid
period, LAY eggs instead. New Egg entity (carries the already-bred offspring
genome) + EggSystem incubates and hatches it into a baby. AnimalPregnancySystem
branches on the mother's birth type. Adds an oviparous showcase species, Chicken.
Eggs are serialized (WorldSave.Eggs) like corpses, so clutches survive save/load.
Also lays the foundation for creating any species or hybrid (full command/UI
deferred): AnimalSet.HybridGenome(base, other) produces a cross anchored to a
base species' body/gene-set with shared genes blended Mendelian-style — so
Create(species, GenerateGenome) makes any species and Create(species,
HybridGenome) makes any hybrid.
EggTexture on AnimalDef (defaults to the seed dot placeholder); reproduction line
added to the `animal` console command. Build + --check-content clean (41 genes,
40 traits). Not GUI-verified.

Adds the first plant↔animal coupling beyond "herbivore eats plant": a toxin/
thorns ↔ tolerance arms race built on the existing gene + hediff engines, plus
the fuller RimWorld capacity set on the health scaffold.
Coevolution C1 — plant defense → poisons/injures the eater:
- Plant genes GeneToxicity/GeneThorns/GenePalatability (GenomeDef + PlantSet
template + PlantPhenotype); animal gene GeneToxinTolerance.
- Hediff Poisoned (non-progressing; grows from eating via HealthState.Intensify,
immunity heals it, overdose is lethal).
- AnimalActionSystem.ApplyPlantDefense on each bite: poison dose =
toxicity × (1 − tolerance); thorns → ApplyInjury (reuses predator-cluster).
- Cost of defense: PlantGrowthSystem growth ×= DefenseGrowthFactor()
(1 − 0.4·toxicity − 0.3·thorns) — without a cost defense would max out and
coevolution would stall.
- Showcase: cactus thorns, poisonous mushroom; grass starts clean so toxicity
can evolve on the staple. Deer/boar get small starting tolerance.
Coevolution C2 — discrimination + the other half of the arms race:
- Smart foraging (reuses A7 intelligence gating): herbivores with effective
intelligence ≥ tier-4 weigh plants by palatability − perceived-toxin −
distance; reflex grazers (or sick animals with dropped consciousness) eat the
nearest plant and risk poison.
- Cost of tolerance: detox raises metabolism (need decay ×= 1 + 0.5·tolerance),
closing the arms race so tolerance doesn't fix at 1.
- popstats reports mean toxinTolerance and a plants line (mean toxicity/thorns/
palatability) to watch the drift.
Health capacities (RimWorld parity, user-requested):
- New capacities BloodFiltration/Hearing/Talking/Eating; CapacityCalc rewritten
to emit only capacities the body declares (a destroyed organ still shows 0%)
with the full dependency chain (blood → pumping/breathing/filtration →
consciousness → moving/sight/hearing/talking/eating, digestion).
- Quadruped body gains kidneys + liver (filtration), ears (hearing), jaw/tongue
(eating/talking). Inspector health tab lists all of a body's capacities.
Localization (ru/en) for new genes' defense line, Poisoned, and the new
capacity labels. Build + --check-content clean (11 def types, 40 genes,
39 traits). Not GUI-verified (headless can't render the world scene).

Brings the full animal foundation onto main and folds its new defs into the
Defs/ subfolder layout introduced on main:
- animal genes -> Defs/Genes/Animal.json (split out of genes.json)
- animals/bodies/hediffs/needs/thoughts -> own Defs/<Type>/ subfolders
- ProductMeat/Bone/Leather + bigger world presets auto-merged via rename detection
- PawnDef un-sealed (AnimalDef : PawnDef); def-location doc comments updated to subfolders
- engine pointer kept at main's newer 96e19c7 (only adds directional sun shadows)
Build + --check-content clean: 11 def types, 33 genes, 35 plants, 32 traits.
