Any way to edit starting resources in survival?

I find the first 5-10 days incredibly boring and repetitive. Is there any way to mod files to speed this part up?

Probably, but wouldn't that vastly trivialize the game even further? Once you start snowballing your economy the game is easy. Giving yourself a leg up early on just makes this issue worse.

That's the point of the survival mode.
You start weak and based on your experience and actions, you expand and grow faster.

I can reduce the # of days. My comfort zone is normally 100 so I can drop it to 80 if it ends up being too broken.

I just find the first week incredibly boring. If RNG is kind and lets me get a soldier center up quickly, it makes it so much more tolerable.

The map generator always make sure there is iron and stone resources in close proximity to the command center.

There is ways to edit it via third party modification tools as the devs said modding after release is fine ill post it here. Cheat engine is one example that you can use pointers to edit your value of minerals. You would have to find the table of values thou as I havent used it with tab yet but it allows you to mod any value in the game once you find it.

Use the map editor to create a random map, add a wave, and add a start bonus.
