* Neutron ATOM-RPG Mod *
****************************************
Game-Version: 1.188

Mod-Version: 2.78

:::: 1.0: Purpose
Makes some personal adjustments to the game

:::: 1.1: Disclaimers
1. This has only been tested by me on the Windows Steam version of the game. It may or may not work on other platforms.

2. I will only upload this mod to www.moddb.com or Steam Workshop. If you acquire it from any other site other than www.moddb.com or Steam Workshop, I did not place the files there.

3. This software is provided "as-is," without any express or implied warranty. In no event shall the author be held liable for any damages arising from the use of this software.

:::: 1.2: Installation

:::: 1.2.1: Steam Workshop
1. Subscribe to the mod
2. Start the game, navigate to "Mods", and active "Neutron".
3. Restart game

:::: 1.2.1: GOG
1. Download from moddb
2. Unpack the zip and place the contents in "%appdata%\..\LocalLow\AtomTeam\Atom\". In a subfolder called "Mods" which you will need to create if it is not there already
3. Start the game, navigate to "Mods", and active "Neutron".
4. Restart game

:::: 1.3: Settings Files - Neutron.txt

This file contains some translation information for changes I made. It also will contain any Neutron settings to allow for adjustment of features. Entries that start with "neutron" are settings. Entires that start with a two character code are localization for text for the game.

:::: 1.3.1: Finding the Settings File - Steam
Steam installs all mods to a “workshop” folder. You need to find the location of your Steam install and the path is relative from there. The path from there would be “Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\”. Each game is assigned a unique id by Steam and subdirectory. Atom-RPG is “552620”. So that puts us in “Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\552620”. Each mod will have it owns subdirectory as well. “2022553676” is the name Steam assigned to Neutron.

So the full path will be “Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\552620\2022553676”

:::: 1.3.2: Finding the Settings File - GOG
The file will be located in the same place you installed the mod to so "%appdata%\..\LocalLow\AtomTeam\Atom\Mods".

:::: 1.4: Third Party Open Source Usage

This mod uses the "0Harmony.dll" to perform its patching operations. Harmony ia "A library for patching, replacing and decorating .NET and Mono methods during runtime." For more information please see the following URLs:

https://www.patreon.com/pardeike
https://github.com/pardeike/Harmony

This will show up as "0Harmony" in the game's Mod UI, but it does not require activation and you can safely ignore it.

:::: 2.0: Changes

:::: 2.1: Adjusted ability cost and points gained from leveling
Ability Cost and Ability points per level are now fixed, instead of scaling and per difficulty.

Ability Cost = "neutron.abilityCost" defaults to "2", integer values only, setting to "0" disables and will use normal game logic

Ability Points Per Level = "neutron.abilityPerLevel" defaults to "1", integer values only, setting to "0" disables and will use normal game logic

:::: 2.2: Characteristic Growth at level up
If character's new level is divisible by the control setting, the character will gain one characteristic. This can be disabled by setting to "0"

The player's control setting is "neutron.gainAttributes". It defaults to "7", so, +1 Characteristic at level 7, 14, 21, etc.

The teammate's control setting is "neutron.teamAttributes" and is disabled by default.

Teammates will now get the same non-battle XP as the player : "neutron.teamEXP"

Love the scaling UI, did not like the game defaults - this is now an override, the UI will be ignored when enabled : "neutron.scaleHUD" disabled by default, personally I liked "1.15"

:::: 2.8: Melee Weapon Balancing - Melee Weapons seem to fall behind Martial Weapons in terms of usefulness
Set "neutron.meleeBoost" to "0" to disable

Melee has been enhanced by adding a base damage bonus based off the melee skill a user has, this is the same magnitude that Martial Weapons currently get from Martial Arts.

Melee Skill < 70; +1 damage
Melee Skill < 90 and Strength >= 5; +3 damage
Melee Skill < 120 and Strength >= 5 and Dexterity >= 5; +5 damage
Melee Skill >= 120 and Strength >= 5 and Dexterity >= 5; +8 damage

Melee Weapons have also been adjusted - for the most part this is just a reducation of Action Point cost to put them on a more even footing.

Shovel (AP -1), Knife (damage +1, add crit 6), Club (AP -1), Spiked Club (AP -1), Sharpened Knife (add crit 10), Axe (damage +1/+4, AP -1, crit 15), Police Baton (AP -1), Pry Bar (AP -1, Stun 15), Soviet army Knife (Crit 20), Lenin's Wrath (AP -1, crit 15), Taiga Machete (AP -1, crit 10), and Sabre (AP -1, crit 20, pierce 50); all of these got +5 sequence also added
