📋 About This Mod

You may have seen wall sockets, vending machines, etc. during your journey that, upon activation, require completion of a Breaching minigame.

This mod allows changing most aspects of the auto-generated Breaching minigames; predefined Breaching minigames however - such as the tutorial, for

example - remain unaffected.

You can adjust Breaching to suit your preferred play style; to make Breaching harder or easier, or, automatically unlock the rewards so the game is resolved with just one click on any cell.

The Mod is fully configurable via Mod Menu (Native Settings UI by keanuWheeze).

Note: there is known bug in Native Settings UI, preventing selecting the value 0 with the keys/buttons. As a workaround, select 0 with the mouse by dragging the bar).

To better understand what this mod does, here's a quick summary of the settings.

These hints are also available in the the in-game menu, albeit they are a bit shorter and not yet localized.

Board Size Mod: Alters the size of the minigame board - the dimensions of the code array from which you pick the codes. The game uses 5, 6 and 7 internally, depending on the difficulty level. The Board Size Mod value is added to this predetermined number. The min/max values below lock the result into a specific range to avoid undesired effect. A value of 0 means that the mod is off and you are using the vanilla settings.

Board Size Lower Limit: Applies a lower cap to the size of the minigame board so it can't fall below this value. The vanilla lower limit is 5. Keep in mind allowing too small values won't allow you to pick up some (or all) rewards.

Board Size Upper Limit: Applies an upper cap to the size of the minigame board so it can't go above this value. The vanilla upper limit is 7. The lower limit takes precedence over the upper limit in case the min/max values overlap. It seems an 11x11 code array still fits to the screen.

Randomize Board Size: Alters the size of the minigame board using a random value between the min/max values below, replacing the internal value entirely (instead of adding a fixed value via the 'Board Size Mod' to the internal value). The randomed size can never be less than 3 or higher than 11, no matter what the min/max values below are. Idea came from DigitalVixen, see posts.

Lower limit for Board Size Randomization: The random value will never be lower than this. Must be lower than 'Upper limit for Board Size Randomization' or else there's no effect.

Upper limit for Board Size Randomization: The random value will never be higher than this. Must be higher than 'Lower limit for Board Size Randomization' or else there's no effect.

Symbol Complexity: Alters symbol complexity in the minigame. The Symbol Complexity value is added to this predetermined number. There are only three levels of complexity,
