[Suggestion] Custom Slimes

[fireheart3911]

Feature request

Short description
Allow larger slime size to be spawned.

Implementation details

Allow us to have slime layouts like slime10, effectively setting the size to 10

Additional info

Combined with the above It would be great to have the ability to toggle slime split on death.

I don't think slimes could always be arbitrary sizes like that, which is at least part of the reason why MobArena has its current sizes. The other reason is that mobs used to be an enum, i.e. a list of hardcoded values. Monsters in MobArena are (unfortunately) not really dynamic in any sense, so adding support for another slime size means adding a very specific entry for that specific size to the list of possible monster types. I don't think that's a good idea, and I think it would make a lot more sense to have a more abstract concept of what a monster is, and then reify that as a "slime type" that supports a size value. This means we're easily into Mobs Rework territory, so I think it's best that we wait until the code base can more easily support this kind of flexibility. Not a bad idea at all though :)
