📋 About This Mod
Reduces the scale of mechs by about 25% and speeds up the animations to adjust for the size change. Gameplay wise this shifts your height to be around two stories on average and makes the battlegrounds feel more connected in my opinion. This mod is probably not for everyone, especially if you want to feel like Godzilla.
Future plans are to scale down some of the cockpits to fit the smaller mech sizes and make them feel tighter.
