📋 About This Mod
UPDATED FOR A16. 4
This mod changes the max skill level to 200, player level to 1000, and increases most perk levels to 5, 10, or 20. There are only moderate stat increases after leveling beyond the defaults, but it's better than gaining nothing at all. The amount of skill points gained also increases with the player's level (roughly around 20 points at level 140 for example) to make up for the very high cost of perks at higher levels. It's a basic xml edit so feel free to change the balancing to your liking. To install just replace the progression.xml file (7 Days To Die\Data\Config\progression.xml).
If you think there is something wrong with the mod or have any suggestions to improve it, please tell me about it (be specific).
*I currently have no plans to update this mod for A17 or A18 due to the removal of constant skill progression.
