[FSF] Better Ancient Complex Loot

Description
This mod is now discontinued. Please subscribe to my new mod Better Exploration Loot which merges all of my loot mods together and includes support for the Odyssey DLC.

Description

The new quest to raid ancient complexes is interesting and exciting. You avoid traps, kill insects and mechanoids, fight off raiders and plunder crytosleep caskets. If you've raided them you were probably getting excited thinking you'll find some amazing things. Well sorry, while the vanilla loot table isn't bad it doesn't have anything truly awesome.

This mod revamps the loot table increasing the rewards, adding new items and adding in spawning that pulls from the quest loot table. The quest loot table is the one that throws in bionics, techprints, archotech artifacts and basically anything worth doing a quest for. I went over the loot table carefully tweaking the numbers so it should be fairly balanced and each crate should provide a sizeable reward that is enough to make the trip worth it even if Randy curses you with bad RNG.

There's three types of containers in the game The Standard crate, The Better Crate which has improved quantity and higher odds on better loot and the Security Crate. The first two provide everything but with low odds for Techprints, Bionics, Neurotrainers, Psylinks, Psytrainers, Quest Loot and Empire Loot. The Security Crates are rare finds so I removed all the cheap generic stuff and left only the good loot Techprints, Bionics, Neurotrainers, Psylinks, Psytrainers, Quest Loot and Empire Loot. If you open a Security Crate you should get something rare or valuable.

The devs like to balance things in a very stingy way for whatever reason. Ancient Complex's used to be worse than they are now. They ended up improving the loot after my mod had been out for a long time.

Why are Ancient Complex's not just good in base game. The dev's for rimworld make some wild decisions
