Summary0026463: Rename "Devour" and "Infection" mechanics for the Templar units
DescriptionThe Paladin uses 2 mechanics that Puffin ported over: "Devour" and "Purify"

The Templar theme is purifying its enemies. The tooltip for these mechanics isn't very thematic. It would be great if these could have an alternative name when they are used for Templar ships

"Devour" could become "Purify"
"Infection" could become "Conversion"

"Devour" is an instakill for targets that are both a lesser mark and below mass X (The weapon does doesn't hit anything else, and the damage listed is sort of misleading). For XML, the weapon needs this tag: can_devour="true"

"Infection" will convert a ship only if it deals the killing blow. The ships can be converted into anything (this is not a death effect) For XML, the weapon needs this tag: unit_to_spawn_on_infestation="TemplarPenitentPage"
TagsNo tags attached.

Done! You can now use these as he has already laid out, however add my addition tags next to them on each system.

devour_function_name="Purify"

infestation_function_name="Conversion"

If you then have a save with a problematic tooltip with some damage dealt, please let me know and I can look into that separately. I'm guessing it should just omit the damage, but right now I don't really know. I won't see comments on a closed ticket, so please add a new one if you will.

Thanks!

Awesome! Works but there's some tooltip improvment I'll open a new mantis ticket for
