Vegan trait + extra clothes
Summary
Content "Vegan trait + more clothes"
Purpose of change
Wanted a bit more of a challenge tbh. Herbivore is neat, vegetarian is neat, but I wanted to see how a vegan survivor would go in the world.
Describe the solution
Added a vegan trait. Can't eat animal products, can't wear animal products. Added some faux fur equivalents and expanded some items to make it less of a hassle. The biggest concern for me is most likely the cotton holsters, as they're a much cheaper way to get holsters. I made them unable to hold as much weight and being made from cotton makes it weaker, but I do not know if there's something else I can do.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Not making it?
Testing
Lots. Tested that I couldn't wear items made with chitin, fur, leather, etc etc. Spawned in the clothes, wore em. Couldn't eat a food item with the "animal_product" flag. Mutating skins that are made of fur and such still work. Also first C++ so I had to do a lot of compiling.
Additional context
Make the holsters from canvas? Tougher weave than cotton, with thicker threads too. Or even just use the "tactical holster" (made of nylon)
I couldn't find anything regarding scabbards in the files, you could also add a non-leather scabbard. Nylon could be a potential material for it, I have one for my machete. (It could also be set to spawn with machetes in shops so they aren't kept in the open.)

Good idea! I'll get on that

Honestly I just didn't feel like dealing with the scabbards/baldrics right now. I can get to it in awhile, but this PR has got me stressed lol.
Does it make sense to be vegan in a world with no industry left? Wearing that leather jacket is not supporting the leather industry anymore
Yeah, theres multiple reasons for being vegan. One that is still valid in a world with no more industry is that you do not wish to steal a chickens unhatched young or cows baby feed.

- A really long faux fur scarf, worn over the mouth for warmth. With the extra length, it's enough to handle nonstandard facial features and accommodate your hands too. Use it to loosen it if you get too warm.

Probably too hard to add, but there are two things that can partly circumvent the trait.
- Using sinew as thread (out of scope?)
- Putting fur/wool stuff on the floor so you can still get warmth while sleeping or otherwise resting. This also does not prevent you from using a fur blanket to sleep.
I don't think those are possible, at least with my skillset
The first one is pretty hard, yeah. The second one may be possible.

Uh, what does industry have to do with being vegan??
You're not supporting the massive exploitation of animal suffering anymore by consuming product made of animals in the pre cataclysm, becasue that system doesn't exist anymore. But I guess this is beside the point for this PR.
@Fris0uman: That's only one of MANY reasons someone can be vegan. And that one, as you clearly mentioned yourself, no longer applies post-cataclysm

Some people also just don't like killing animals or are still uncomfortable with wearing leather. Like I do understand where you're coming from, but you can apply this logic to really any negative trait. Why would someone still hate grains if they're a good source of calories? Why would someone be pacifistic when you need to kill? Human behavior doesn't always follow what appears to be logical
No one is saying vegan in Cataclysm is not logical, there's a ton of reasons that don't have to do with pre-catalysm stuff

This needs conflicts fixed, but other than that I think this is ready for primetime
