Alien Rulers LITE [WOTC]

Description
Rulers will be more cautious and retreat from the battlefield sooner - relieving the pressure off XCOM soldiers.

Changes the minimum retreat conditions that Rulers must meet before attempting an escape.

Rulers will retreat when at least 1 of these conditions are met:
- After losing 17% of their max health (instead of 33%).
- After 1 XCOM soldier has been disabled or killed (instead of 2 soldiers).
- After the Ruler has performed a minimum of 5-6 actions (instead of 10-12).

After an individual Ruler has appeared this many times, they will fight to the death. This is a base-game setting and I multiplied these numbers by 4 to decrease the likelihood of it happening before you kill them:
12 = Rookie (instead of 3)
12 = Verteran (instead of 3)
12 = Commander (instead of 3)
20 = Legend (instead of 5)


if you are using the mod "Rulers Regen", they will only regen 16% of their health and armor instead of 33%.


100% safe to enable or disable at any time.

Thanks for pointing that out, fixed.

Just noticed that you accidentally put Veteran instead of Legendary when describing the "to the death" chances, might wanna change that XD

Thanks for clarifying, that makes sense. In that case I will probably increase that value even further - I do not want Rulers to fight to the death with this mod.

I can't remember as its been a long while since config messing but the "Max" number is the max number of times you would face them as in the base value of 3, on the 3rd encounter, they wouldn't run away and would be to the death. So since your values halve the run away rates, doubling the encounter max is correct.

I didn't even know about the restrictions besides health.

I guess that might be due to how they tend to draw an obscene amount of fire given the threat they pose.
