📋 About This Mod

!!!---NOTE---!!!

This is my first mod of any kind, so feedback is more than welcome. I will include the modified xml snippets of the random_event.xml (both modded and original) in case anyone else wants to make tweaks.

Original idea credit: Zaatch

Link to original mod/idea: Roads are Dangerous at Kingdom Come: Deliverance Nexus - Mods and community (nexusmods.com)

Manual installation:

1. Download the files. The directory structure should look as such:

RAD_redux\

|---> Data\

|-----|---> RAD_redux.pak

|--- mod.manifest

2. In your KingdomComeDeliverance install directory, ensure there is a Mods directory. Copy all the files (copy the RAD_redux folder) and paste it in KingdomComeDelivers\Mods\

3. Launch the game. Once the menu has popped up, open the console (` key) and you should see "Opening paks in mods/RAD_redux...". If no errors are displayed, you're installed it correctly!

I've modified the following files within the Data\Tables.pak archive:

- random_event.xml

random_event.xml original:
