AHI Gas Rebalance (Arcade)

Latest build: 20210204 (01_200_025)

This mod is intended to completely rebalance the gas systems based on the available real-world properties of Hydrogen, Oxygen and Ice, with consumption set to reflect a more game-oriented time span.

In simple terms, time is scaled by 12. Gasses are generated 12x faster with no increased electrical cost, but they're also consumed 12x faster. This puts them in line with the default 2 hour in-game day period, as opposed to a real-world 24-hour day.

NB The default engineer's suits are tweaked to counteract this scaling. A such, flight and breathing times are roughly the same as the base game.

New to this update:
NB All changes compared to the previous release.
- Support for Warfare 2 Broadside patch and DLC.

Why?

This is primarily a maintenance build. All definitions have been re-established based on the current default declarations.

NB This means Tiered Updates have been added. I don't know enough about what the values mean to make any specific changes, but don't want to inadvertently cause engine issues by leaving them out.
