Adjustable Battle Value - A Spawn Overhaul

Description:

ABV is a mod that brings a huge amount of configurability and improvements to Mechwarrior 5's spawn and unit selection systems. By default, this mod tries to closely emulate vanilla difficulty, while dramatically increasing the variety of unit spawns instead of seeing the same handful of units repeatedly as is common in the base game, especially when fighting the clans. Clan missions will no longer spam light mechs, and will have a much more reasonable unit distribution. In addition to unit variety, you can use ABV to configure how common you want certain unit types to be. Want to see less turrets, or even no turrets? ABV can do that. Same for vehicles, VTOLs, and entire mech weight classes. They will be intelligently replaced with other unit types without significantly affecting overall difficulty. This isn't limited to just reducing spawns though, it can also go the other way. ABV has highly configurable modifiers for increasing difficulty through extra unit spawns instead of the base game's answer of higher damage or more accurate enemies. You can also change unit spawns for specific mission types or difficulty levels instead of an overall modifier.

Mod options:

Overall spawn multiplier - Functions as described, configure the difficulty however you want.

Better IS Spawns System - Enabled by default, this system dramatically improves unit variety, especially for modded mechs. Has options to scale with the timeline, allowing larger units to appear later in the game.

Better Clan Spawns System - Enabled by default, this is a variation of the Better IS Spawn system with the aim of dramatically improving unit variety for clan mechs and factions. High tonnage clan mechs will no longer be myth, with much less light mech spam, and modded IIC mech spawns can be reduced with a configurable filter. This system also includes a separate difficulty multiplier for configuring how intense missions against the Clans will be.

Configurable unit frequency - Complete control over how common different unit types are. You can increase or decrease mech spawns by weight class, vehicle spawns, VTOL spawns, and turret spawns. They can even be turned off entirely if you wish.

Configurable difficulty - Difficulty options that can increase or decrease the number of spawns in a mission based on mission type, or listed mission difficulty range.

All of the listed categories have sub-options so you can fine-tune the mod to your liking, or leave it as-is.

Compatibility:

V3 brings near-total compatibility with missions and events from Coyote's Mission Pack. Integration can be turned off using mod options if you don't want ABV to affect missions from this mod.

High BV/Rare modded mechs should have much better spawnrates.

ABV doesn't have any known incompati
