RedMew/map_gen/shared/biter_attacks.lua

--[[
    This module allows for massive biter attacks without inflicting lag spikes by scanning large areas at once.
    There are options in the config to regulate the following:
    Attacks sent against random players on timed intervals.
    Attacks sent on the launch of rockets.

    There is a command available in admin_commands.
    There is also a public function allowing the sending of attacks by other modules.
    Public.launch_attack takes a table of arguments and will send an attack against a specific entity or position.
