Description:

A bionic wealth rebalance mod, to mitigate the need of colony wealth management.
Also affects other implanted body parts

Does not change the value bionics/other parts are bought or sold at

Bionics on a bionic pawn:
Archotech limbs, Painstopper, Bionic heart
All pawns had melee 6.
Sample size 100.

• 18 Bionic pawns are worth 100 non-bionic pawns (in raid points), but only have a 50% chance to win against 2 pawns. This mod changes them to be worth 36 non-bionic pawns
• The wealth created by a bionic pawn will look skewed in the history tab, as it’s displayed as pawn wealth but calculated as direct wealth for raid points, this mod lessens that
• Bionics aren’t removable from a corpse, if your bionic pawn dies all bionics die with them unless you resurrect them, equal wealth implanted or not is odd
• Bionics aren’t worth it until max wealth is reached, slaves or other means of increasing pawn count are always more viable

Why melee skill 6 in tests?
Skill 0 – 20 Averaged gives melee dps 2.87
Skill 6 is 2.79
Skill 0 – 20 Averaged on a bionic gives melee dps 6.145
Skill 6 bionic is 6.16
100% quality pawn has 5’s and 6’s in skills
Why those bionics in tests?
They give the best odds for fighting in vanilla, wealth only matters because of raid points, so fighting bionics are used

Should be all good, does use Harmony

Updated to 1.6, added load order (Load after Harmony & Core), and added Harmony dependency in About.xml, thanks to others for checking it still worked 🙂
Updated to 1.5, nothing needed to be changed, added ModIcon.png and 1.5 to supported versions in About.xml

Uploaded for anyone interested, sorry for long description
