Awesome mod, but difficulty seems too harsh.. Or is it CE incompatibility?
Hello there, I first need to say your mod is awesome! I have been trying it for a few weeks now.

I'm writing this because when I ran into an especially big pristine ruin, the biggest I found so far ("wealth" > 1M, reduced to "medium" a few days before my colonists arrived), I experienced a pure and complete total war there. It was nothing like I ever saw in Rimworld x)

There were raids coming in every 5 mins, and with roughly 50 people or more each time!!!!

For example just one raid produced this => https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/782979956675279259/381746670392265BF10374C4CEFC12262FFC76F1/
(Btw we can see they are already fighting people immediately on arrival x) )

It's obvious it was a total mess, I mean even my "war-grade computer" was struggling with this. And it was also impossible for my 7 colonists to do anything in there.

So my question is simply: is that normal?
If not I'm running a few mods (as you can see), my guess would be an incompatibility with CE..?

What do you think?

Hi, yes, this is pretty much normal. You just should remember that you can take some stuff from the map and retread via map edge at any moment.
One reason for creating this mod is that all challenges in the game are carefully balanced, so I decided to add an impossible challenge. In this case you can't "win", but you can test, how far you can go (and the further you go, the bigger a reward). You're not supposed to defeat any enemy, but you should sneak, steal and retreat, probably sacrificing some of your soldiers or droids, covering your retreating troops with precious loot.
Or you can try to beat everyone, with some mods and some luck you can prepare good enough to withstand raids even with a small squads.

I see :)
Although it is rather hard to sneak when everyone is coming directly at you.. x)

But I see your point, thanks!

would be nice if this was configurable, most ruins are really not worth it

Yep, threat level slider is somewhere on my to do list.
