📋 About This Mod
Stewie has a tweak that effectively turns off luck while gambling. It does this by initializing the gambling games with a luck of 5. He then added the ability to configure the luck level you can have. This is cool, but it is still a one size fits all approach, where no matter what your luck stat is, it will always initialize the games with the same luck value. I want luck to still matter while gambling, just not be free wins at 10 luck or no chance at 1 luck.
So that's what this mod does. Luck still matters while gambling, just less so.
The following shows the effective level of luck you'll have while gambling, based on your actual luck stat.
1 - 3 Luck = Effective 4 while Gambling
4 - 6 Luck = Effective 5 while Gambling
7 - 9 Luck = Effective 6 while Gambling
10 Luck = Effective 7 while Gambling
