Growable Synthread and Hyperweave
Description
This small mod allows you to plant and grow your own synthread and hyperweave plants based off the trusty cotton plant with each being slightly different in colour so they are recognisable. They can be planted in both soil and hydroponics.
Since synthread is way rarer than it should be to make anything useful from it (and you usually blow right past it normally), I've added it around the same level and requirements as devilstrand. Similarly, the hyperweave plant takes a lot more skill and time to grow and generates low numbers but can now be a viable late-game way of acquiring it and making good clothing for your colonists.
You will need to research the [b]Advanced Textile Crops[/b] research to unlock these and brings you from the mid game into the late game. This requires both the multi-analyser and hydroponics research to start researching.
Lastly, as they are advanced crops they are quite fragile so make sure you guard them well. Similarly, both are immune to blight.
[i]This is my first RimWorld mod so any feedback would be greatly appreciated, thank you![/i]
