EZ difficulty

Description
In order for this mod to rewrite the balance of other mods, it must be placed at the very bottom of the list of selected mods.


Mod Information
This mod was created to reduce the entry threshold for beginners. Increasing the number of initial resources and easing elemental threats, but this will only help the player survive in the game a little longer.


Balance Changes
World Map -- world map is getting infected slower.
Labyrinth Infestation 12.5 -> 7.5

Combat -- mechs are more responsive.
Order Frequency 10 -> 15

Resources -- more starting resources.
Starting Metallite 5500 -> 8000 Starting Bjorn 1100 -> 1400 Starting Munilon 825 -> 1000 Starting Skalaknit 825 -> 1200 Starting Engineers 350 -> 400 Starting Scientists 160 -> 260 Standard Engineer Replenishment every week 2 -> 5

Locations -- hot locations became a bit cooler. Natural hazards became less dangerous.
map temp wasteland 1.5 -> 1.3 map temp desert 2.2 -> 1.9 map temp volcan 4.4 -> 3.6 water slowdown multiplier 0.35 -> 0.45 -- mechs became faster in water. tornado power 5.5 -> 4.2 -- tornado sucks mechs in less. sunstrike damage 10 -> 7 -- less damage from sunstrikes.

Added secret Russian spy to the pilot squad.

How to make your own balance?
If you want to change any parameters, you can do it like this:
  1. Go to the mods folder C:\Users\_USERNAME_\AppData\Local\Mech_Engineer\mods
  2. Copy the "EZ difficulty" folder and change its name, for example, to "EZ difficulty 2"
  3. In the "EZ difficulty 2" folder, change the necessary parameters in the balance.ini file.
  4. Don't forget to put your mod at the very bottom of the selected mods.

Enjoy!

Ok, @AlphaWolf 25,
I got an error, but it seems to be due to a conflict between Heavy & Superheavy Mechs and Rebalance Mod, since Heavy & Superheavy Mechs already includes the latter.

The creator of Heavy & Superheavy Mechs himself writes:
```
Includes Rebalanced changes as default, thus DO NOT USE AT SAME TIME WITH REBALANCE MOD.
```

I also tested Heavy & Superheavy Mechs a bit with my EZ difficulty and didn't get any errors, but they are possible since I changed balance.ini:
```
This mod is unlikely to work with any other mod that changes balance.ini. May break with future updates, uses unsupported features to implement dual reactor mechs.
```

Bottom line: just uninstall Rebalance, it shouldn't change anything in the game, I think you can continue playing on the same save.

P.S. also don't forget that the EZ difficulty mod should be selected last (at the very bottom when choosing mods).

I hope it helped. Good luck!

Hi, @AlphaWolf 25, I tried to recreate this error, but I couldn't.
Please send the error content here.
Also, do you use other mods, do you get errors when doing other things?
