Unless you're planning on using it with Masterwork, I would highly suggest copying from someone else.

If you are using it with Masterwork, all you have to do is include the file in the raw/objects folder, go into the object testing arena and search.

It looks like you completely removed the sting attack from the raws. Not sure about the kicking though. Were they ever able to kick?
