[WotC] RW Better Mission Result Based Autoadjusting Difficulty
;My "Enemy Force Level" (a Default-XCom2 Value used to determine the Amount/Type/Tier of randomly generated Enemies in Missions and gradually increasing from 1 to 20 by +1 every 10days) helpfully also decreases/increases after each Mission based on Casualties (No Wounded, Wounded, 33% Killed, 50% Killed, 100% Killed) and based on Mission Result (Successful/Failed) automatically preventing me from gradually becoming overpowered/overloser, yours?
;Self-adjusting difficulty is something I’ve always "manually" practiced in any game (by manually tiny-stepping down/up difficulty after losing/winning each mission or match and therefore making the game’s Difficulty naturally "oscillate" around the most appropriate for me). I`ve also always practiced it with XCom1/2 but I kind of like the Time-Costs settings of Legendary Difficulty so this Mini-Mod is designed to obtain the same result (make Difficulty naturally oscillate around the most appropriate for the player) but altering a different Difficulty parameter which represents Enemy Strength and, this time, automatically instead of manually… 😉
;YOU CAN CHANGE THE VALUES TO THE DESIRED ONES IN THE .INI FILE (And don’t you dare asking where the .INI file is… seriously??? 😉 )
;The two below "Casualties" and "Mission Result" Modifiers are cumulative. For Example: +1 (No Wounded) -1 (Mission Failed) = +0.

;This way instead of increments of 1 from 1 to 20 it will be shown in increments of 5% from 5% to 100%… I kinda prefer it… kinda looks more professional… 😉

DETECT CLASS OVERRIDES CONFLICTS BETWEEN MODS
Simply make a quick Harddrive Search for “+ModClassOverrides=(BaseGameClass=“
The results will show all the XComEngine.ini files of Mods that make Overrides. Check if any of those files have the same Class name after the “=“ and kindly ask the Modders to try to avoid that override or cooperate with each other. When 2 mods override the same class the game gets HORRIBLY VERY SLOW and only 1 of the 2 Mods works (randomly).
