Stronger Veterans

Stronger Veterans mod

`mod_stronger_veterans`

!! This mod does not work with v1. 5+ of Battle Brothers !!

Overview

This is a difficulty/progression-tweaking mod which adds new settings to the New Campaign menu.

Requirements

This mod requires AdamMil01's Modding Script Hooks https://www.nexusmods.com/battlebrothers/mods/42

Installation

Place (unextracted) .zip file in `Battle Brothers\data` directory

Compatibility 

This mod modifies the save file structure. With the mod loaded, attempting to load any save file created without the mod will crash the game. Likewise, if the mod is removed then any games saved with the mod will no longer be playable.

You must create a new game to use this mod, and will need to keep the mod installed to continue playing that game.

❌ Currently incompatible

If CampaignTweakster is installed, StrongerVeterans will be (gracefully) disabled.

CampaignTweaksterTwo

✔ Compatible

This is a fork of CampaignTweakster designed to be compatible with this mod and others storing campaign settings similarly.

4 Stat Per Level Up  &  Level All the Skills

❌ Incompatible; This Replaces Those

Only use one of these 3 mods, they all modify a variable in `globals.js` and will step on each other. If StrongerVeterans is installed, it will supersede the other(s) (the value in `globals.js` on-disk will be ignored).

Of the 3, StrongerVeterans is the only one to operate programmatically with a Modding Scripts Hook rather than replacing the entirety of the file, and the only one allowing in-menu customization of the setting per-game. However, StrongerVeterans will require starting a new game, while the other two will apply to any loaded game.

StrongerVeterans uses the 'Chosen Stats per Level' setting for this functionality.

❌ Incompatible

The main game menu will break. Do not install both of these mods at once.

(Details for Devs)

The potential compatiblity issues are:

1. The front-end code for the New Campaign menu doesn't make it easy to know if other mods have added additional screens (this can be improved significantly if other mod authors add their new panels to the `NewCampaignMenuModule` prototype; you can detect the presenc
