📋 About This Mod

Removes all corrections made to hit rolls, including:

  • []breaking streaks of misses the player currently has

    []making good shots even likelier to hit

  • making bad shots even less likelier to hit.

    Note: may cause blood pressure to rise during gameplay because pure RNG has no mercy.

    To go into more detail, the game without this mod:

    Every time one of your mechs experiences a miss with an attack, the game would add to a "streakbreaker" value. It would apply this value to future attacks you make, increasing their chances of hitting. Once another attack does hit, it resets the streakbreaker value.

    I can't recall the exact formula, but basically:

    Hit chances around the 40% to 70% range were generally left untouched or barely moved at all.

    Around 75%, the game would start increasing the actual chance to hit by a bit. IE 75% would be a bit more like 79%, 85% would be more like 89%, etc. Basically those 95% misses you've had were more like, 99% misses.

    Conversely, past a point, 30% would be more like 25%, 15% would be more 10%, etc etc. The main effect is that when the AI takes unlikely shots, they're less likely to hit than you'd think.

    This is all disabled with the mod installed.
