Added: Dark Spire Rivalry

Enabled via a Galaxy Option, this causes the Dark Spire and Macrophage to compete for territory.

Dark Spire will wither Telium within 1 hop of a VG, while Histiocyte drones will slowly consume any Dark Spire VG they come across.

Last version for a while, minus any bug fixes.

NOT save compatible

Removed Player-Allied lobby option.

Telia and Infested Metal Generators now mark up over time, Telia every 30 minutes and Infested Generators every 15 minutes.
Histiocytes now mark up to their host's level whenever they load.

Added in a new Hives spawning option.
When enabled, a percentage of the galaxy (which can be configured via a slider) will be entirely taken over by Macrophage Telia.
These planets will have an above average number of Telia, a larger number of mines, and cost no AIP to capture if you can manage to force your way in.
