Skippable NGPs

Description
Introduces a NG+ catch-up mechanic for alt characters, similar to how it worked in HoH1. Primarily useful in Coop. Beating any higher NG+ in HoH2 only increments your characters NG+ by one. This is usually not an issue, but in Coop your friend can start a NG+10 run for your NG+1 character, which would still only get you to NG+2. We perceived this as a completely unnecessary change. With this mod, you would reach min(townNGP, missionNGP)+1 instead, similar to how it was in HoH1, where townNGP is your highest NG+. So if your main is NG+5, in the above example your alt would reach NG+6.

I made a separate "aggressive" version of this mod, which ignores your Town-NGP, simply making you reach whatever NG+ you beat instead. For those of us with friends who can't play as much.

As for actually levelling those alt characters, i made:
- "No Low-Level EXP-Penalty": heavily underlevelled characters normally only gain 10% EXP. This removes that penalty.
- "EXP Rework for Skippable NGPs": slightly improves EXP gain in higher NGPs and additionally reverses the EXP-penalty for being underlevelled, making it a strong catch-up mechanic instead.

I strongly recommend using the EXP Rework together with Skippable NGPs.
