📋 About This Mod

Inspired by TonnageLimitByMissionDifficulty, Drop Ton Limit, DropCostPerMech mods. This mod will based on mission difficulty, reward cbill if you send lance tonnage below the mission difficulty level, and also limit on how overpower your lance tonnage allowed. The objective is to tilt the lance tonnage within -1 full skull and +1 full skull of the mission difficulty.

Current setting of difficultyLimitAllowance=2, means that you allowed to overpower one full skull, increase this value for higher tonnage. Once the calculation reach 5 skulls, there will be no tonnage limit, good if you play with bigger drop mod. The tonnage limit will also double if you somehow facing Clan in certain mod.

Current reward is set to 2% for each ton lesser than mission difficulty, up to 50 ton or one full skull lower.

"rewardOnDropTonnage" : true,       // cbill reward if send lance tonnage below mission difficulty
