Added new optional work in progress addon SMAC immersion submod. It replaces the vanilla units, buildings, technologies, terrains names and description to ones applicable from SMAC. It also visually replaces the vanilla fungus color from purple blue to reddish pink of SMAC's xenofungus. Future updates to this will include more tech text, icons, images from SMAC.
Thanks to Tiramisu for showing it was possible to edit terrain graphics, thanks to Damjan Cvetkov-Dimitrov for upscaled Peacekeeping base, thanks to imgupscaler.com for upscaling Planet image used to replace vanilla titlescreen replacing zyro.com since that site no longer offer upscaling. Thanks to GIMP the software I used to recolor fungus and titlescreen logo.
