Idea for a fun and challenging mod! (WX-78)!
We'll call it "WX's challenge".

Here's the adjustment I think could be cool to try (for WX-78 only):
- Hunger drains 3 times as fast
- Sanity drains 2 times as fast
- Damage input is 2x from enemy mobs and natural occurrences and 1,5x from Bosses.

- WX-78 doesn't have a cap on the amount of gears he can increase his stats from (so he can increase his stats infinitely in theory).

The problem I have when playing this game now is that it is kind of easy and not really that challenging to stay alive anymore. And once you hit 15 gears consumed you don't really have that much of a goal anymore either.

With this mod the game will be very difficult in the beginning of course - it will be a real challenge just to stay alive. But the cool thing is that you have a lot more room to become that much stronger, and the goal is to reach a kind of "equilibrium".

The only problem I have is that I don't know how to mod. I tried to look into it some time ago, but I couldn't find a way to alter these settings to create this kind of gameplay. So I am asking anyone who are proficient at modding if they can create it? Or if they can tell me how I can make these changes so I can create the mod myself, if it is at all possible? I would only imagine that it shouldn't be that hard to tweak these things (maybe except for damage input?) but I am only guessing.

Thank you.
