Chariots Reborn

A simple mod to make chariots deadly against infantry as they were designed to.
The goal is to make chariots powerful against infantry but balanced overall. No more pathetic exalted seeker chariot or Settra chariot of the Gods !
Chariots do damage through 2 mechanics : impact force and collision attacks. The first simulates the kinetic energy and the second is here to tune chariots differences.

Impact Force

Impact force is only dependent of the mass ratio and speed delta between 2 units. We could increase only the mass and the speed of chariots however that would result in chariots being unstoppable. To circumvent this matter the general impact force has been increased for all units (Collision_damage_modifier set to 1 and Collision damage_max set to 100). Proper mass increase for chariots has also been used in that regard. Last but not least new abilities add a temporary mass and acceleration increase during the charge.

Collision attacks

Collision attacks have been optimized and improved. First collision attacks hit more frequently with the same values used in Max target and Max target cooldown. Second, weapon strength and bonus vs infantry has been adjusted for most chariots. And last, a new ability chariot charge 2 adds a temporary bonus vs infantry increase.

New chariots abilities

3 new abilities have been added for chariots :
-Chariot charge 1 for low-mid tier chariots
-Chariot charge 2 for elite chariots
-Excess charge for exalted seeker chariot
