Data / DATA-2937 Companions have incorrect values
Fixed. The bonuses had been declared in two locations, factor in the lack of floor... Anyways, I've addressed it, cleaned up the files some more, refactored Animal companions, Special Mounts, and Familiars.

i was trying to make an animal companion recently and i noticed the stats for strengt/dex and natural armor were way off so i had a look at what it might be doing wrong and i'm pretty sure i've found it.
when looking at the druid animal companion table Druid's(which unters and rangers also use) it gives you 2 columns with bonuses to strength/dex and natural armor and these bonuses go up at certain levels.
Instead of giving a +2 natural armor and a +1 to strength/dex at levels 3/4/5 and +3 natural armor and a +2 to strength/dex at levels 6/7/8 and so on it actually adds these bonuses together but even that isn't done correctly.
Overview of expected results vs actual results:
for this overview i'm using a tiger with 1 natural armor(ac) at lvls 1-6 and instead of making him bigger at lvl 7 and giving him +2 natural armor i'm giving him the +2 dex/constitution option so he goes from 13/17 str/dex to 13/19
normal:
lvl 4: ac = 3 str/dex +1 => 14/18
lvl 6: ac = 5 str/dex +2 => 15/19
lvl 9: ac = 8 str/dex +3 => 17/22
expected wrong results:
lvl 4: ac = 5 str/dex +2 => 15/19
lvl 6: ac = 11 str/dex +5 => 18/22
lvl 9: ac = 26 str/dex +9 => 22/28
actual wrong results:
lvl 4: ac = 5 str/dex +2 => 15/19
lvl 6: ac = 9 str/dex +4 => 17/21
lvl 9: ac = 13 str/dex +6 => 19/25
note: ac refers to natural armor on the character sheet.
PCgen also gives me double the amount of ability score increases instead of 1x +1 at level 4 i got 2x +1 at lvl 4 and the same for the ability score increase at lvl 9 so instead of 2 stat points i got 4 of them.
the tiger is supposed to advance at level 7, it gives me the advance option but it keeps the animal companion at level 6 for some reason causing a 1lvl gap between druid/hunter and animal companion. (just cosmetic issue as it did give me my 4th feat at level 8 and 4th bonus trick at level 9 even though it displayed me being lvl 7 and 8 respectively)
I tried googling for an answer to this topic but my google-fu is weak and i didn't find any mention of this anywhere. If anything is unclear or you need me to provide extra information please let me know.
