Reasonable strength XP rates

Description
Doubles the strength XP gain when walking when encumbered. Quadruples the strength xp gain from combat. Leveling strength in Kenshi is incredibly braindead and boring. This is an alternative to walking around with a backpack of iron for 45 minutes. Doesn't affect balance at all, just shorterns the mindless strength grind.

If you are confused or curious about the strength XP mechanics and how to best level strength, this video should help clarify: https://youtu.be/lUjTKEe9aM8

@hefty It will if martial arts give strength xp in the same way that weapons do. I'm not sure if martial arts uses a different multiplier.

@ARS2000 One of the people below noticed the same thing. I'll have to change the description to clarify. With this mod enabled, if your character is carrying a body, and has 70% encumbrance, your strength XP in the UI should show as 100%. Without the mod, it should show up as 50%.

The way the UI works here is really confusing. In the default game, the highest strength XP rate you can get shows as 50% as in the UI for some reason.

In the editor, I set the XP rate to 200%, so the in game UI should show it as 100%.

This video should explain it for you: https://youtu.be/lUjTKEe9aM8

So I got this mod in, and I do believe its working because some of my characters strength stats levelled up faster, but when I was looking at the XP growth rate, it still only said 50% which I thought doesn't sound right even if the actual end results are them growing faster now.

Is this like a UI error on my part?

I am a kenshi fan and I approve this mod, I hated the good ol' iron hauling:steamhappy:

Hmm Alright, I assumed from your description it would've increased it to 200% gain.

@Patricia?! This video should help explain it: https://youtu.be/lUjTKEe9aM8

@Patricia?! That means the mod is working. The vanilla game's max strength XP from encumbrance while carrying a corpse is 50%. This mod doubles it to 100%. I can see why the description could be confusing. Also, by top priority do you mean that you placed it all the way at the bottom? Mods at the bottom of the load order have the highest priority.
