Cartox, the Raging Demon Boar

"The demon boar, Cartox. Cartox was once a mere boar who unintentionally consumed the blood of a god after eating a bug that had sucked that god's blood. However, the power was too great, and Cartoxonous became a rage-fueled monster."

Cartoxonous is a fast super-heavy with momentum-based moves. He has a strong combo game and an exploitable recovery. His crutch is Rage, which gives him a few seconds of super-armor after taking damage or building it up with his down-special, Cataclysmic Quake!

Here is a complete list of his gameplay quirks:
* When Cartox gets hit, he builds rage. (Rage built equals DamageTaken + 1 * 2. The multipler is * 3 if he is hit while using up-b, down-b, or Taunt.) When he uses down special with 100 rage, Cartox gains super armor for up to 5 seconds. Taking further damage while raging will add negative rage using the same equation (minus the up-b/down-b/taunt multiplier).
* Added the Rage HUD
* Hold special during the spin part of up-b to crash downwards.
* Dash-attack, forward-air, and the crash hitbox of up-b all deal more damage with more speed. To maximize the damage of Meteor Mash, use it from up high.
* Taunt heals HP
* The ai_update is finely tuned to efficiently maximize the AI's combo game with Cartox.
* Down-smash has a second hitbox if you press attack right after the quake.
* If you are moving backwards while using nair, there is a third hitbox and you turn around while using it.
* If you continue to hold left/right while using fair or dash attack, you will continue dashing after the move ends.
* Side-special is Tusk Toss, a grab (does NOT pierce parry) that lets you hurl the enemy up, left, right, or down after landing it.

I included this list of gameplay information so people know how to play Cartox and so that people who want to mod may be able to use data from the mod to make their own moves work.

Feedback:
* You may comment below and let me know if you think the character is overpowered, underpowered, or balanced.
* Please do not offer criticism, because I have already fine-tuned this character's gameplay to my own personal preference and already know how to improve this further.
* I know the sprite editing could be better. If you are a sprite artist and would like to re-draw sprites for me, you may let me know and I may commission you.
* If you would like to translate this mod into another language, you may.
* I am happy to answer questions about how I made this mod.
* If you know how to make more color palettes work, let me know. I couldn't get any more than I currently have for some reason.
