Hello Kideo! Glad you like the mod. I don't work on this anymore but Mafe has access and still actively mods (I believe). You could go to the Discord and ask around. It is also entirely possible to edit the mod on your end to just change that penalty by tweaking some numbers. The Discord modding channel could probably help you figure out how to do that. They are great people!
As a caveat, let me remind you that this mod is not the intended way to play the original game and that it's not necessarily balanced if you try to break it (i.e. using a whole party of Wilderi). But, I made this mod after playing with other race mods and learning how to make mods in the first place. Maybe opening the text file and tinkering with the numbers will open doors for you :)
Have fun and keep gaming!

Just throwing a bit of feedback out there; make of it what you will. I decided to make a party of only Wilderi; their playstyle in this mod seems to embody the idea of 'offence is the best defence'. A Wilderi who gets fed kills can really pop off. However, the movement distance debuff means that unless you keep your party in a formation, chances are, your Wilderi will have only 1 movement on most classes! In a Wilderi-only party, this becomes stretched to a funny extent: once the 3 of your 5 party members have moved even just 1 tile, the 2 others become immobile. The buffs are very good and probably justify the downside; it also definitely gets you to play differently. In the other hand, in many fights, you would want to disperse your characters in order to use positioning, block multiple chokepoints or avoid AoE, all of which are things the Wilderi aren't good at at all. Perhaps the movemement speed penalty could be reworked to be less strict or activate at a different condition?

This mod is amazing! The new racial abilities work really well with existing playstyles, are fun to play with and against. This mod is going to be the mainstray for all of my future runs I feel, a certified hood classic for sure!

Oh, another thing, the Human and Scurio races are still in their original Journal pages and the Human passive of +20% XP and longer morale doesn't seem to work, so it's still vanilla of +10% XP. I don't know about the status effects being stronger against them working or not. I might also change those too.

That said, I want to ask for your permission to edit the codes in your mod for my own use. Especially for that Wilderi case.
DoctahZay 14 Dec, 2024 @ 1:54am 
I had discussed in the discord before I commented here. They said that the codes you added regarding "AV_*" things are overriding the vanilla AV of the races and the change is permanent. The thing I might be able to do to revert it is by locating the lines/codes from your mod and try to replace them with the vanilla ones. Or just play a new vanilla save.

I mostly enjoy your mod now, beside the Wilderi feeling underpowered because their first turn usually is the last of the crew and the passive penalizes Wilderi when they have no other actors near them since they have their turn and move earlier. I feel like my playstyle, rushing into the enemies, heavily contradicts this passive and the Wilderi can only move like 2 tiles per turn, with each turn having to wait like 40 TTA.

@DoctohZay - I suggest you try looking in the Discord modding channel (linked in the mod description above). I've been out of modding for too long and I'm not familiar anymore.
I don't know what happens once you unload my mod on an existing play through. Sorry! Maybe someone else will be able to help you out, if it can be done at all.

Thank you for the reply! Another thing: I had unsubscribed from this mod for some time because it was too complex for me. But, the Ferrens stayed at 40 TTA instead of 30 like the rest of the races in my fleet. Is there a way to return their TTA back to 30? I tried looking into my save file but it had too many lines and I don't know which one to change.

Hey @DoctahZay, when I look at my humans and scurio journals, they show the changes made in this mod to their journal pages. So, if you're not seeing them, it's possible that another mod is interfering.
DoctahZay 10 Dec, 2024 @ 8:54pm 
Hello, far late comment here. I have a question. Even if the journal page for a race isn't updated to reflect the changes brought by this mod, does it still activate the passives in combat?

I have Human and Scurio journals not having the listed race passives.

@KumaCat -- thanks for the kind words! So glad you like it.
And thanks for pointing out the discrepancies with the HP/MP -- in fact, I've been tweaking the mod a bit here and there and I accidentally removed the Rasmen HP/MP reduction and gave the Falpa +10MP by mistake!
It's fixed now. Falpa & Rasmen both now have -5HP/MP.

I'm really liking this mod, especially the small "effects" and icons some races have indicating their new passive! They make everything colorful and a joy to play :D
I did notice, though, Reeve still has +10mp from vanilla's falpas, and the rasmen I recruited had normal hp and mp (30 and 20, respectively), even though the toolkit says they have it reduced by 5...
This might be some interference with another mod though. I did go a little bit overboard and downloaded like 50 of them xD
Can't wait to see how the other races play with each other. Thank you very much! :)

@Jackington: Cool. Feel free to let me know your thoughts once you've tested it, either here or (preferably) on the Discord.

Just getting back into HG, will give this a whirl on a modded run!
