📋 About This Mod

Combines and expands on 7 GRiNDTerra Mods. Requires ALL DLC!

GRiNDTerra Gameplay Overhaul

Objectives of this Mod and reasons you may not want to download!

GRiNDTerra Gameplay Overhaul is not a "new" experience! The objective of this mod is to help clean up load orders, unify small script/quest-based mods, and just an all-around easier experience for everyone involved!

All mods included will still be maintained, just won't be receiving new content as they are all complete experiences. They will not receive any of the new updates or content that is added into GRiNDTerra Gameplay Overhaul.

Going forward any new additions, ideas, and content that may be related will be going into this mod right here. This mod will require any and all DLC! I will not be making a DLC-Free version, nor will I be making an Achievement Friendly or VC version. This is my personal AiO that I use to contain mods and ideas I won't be making into smaller packages.

[]NPCs will better evaluate the verticality of the combat situation.[/]

[]NPCs value their lives more. NPCs can and will fall back using cover and suppressive fire. (Blind fire too!)[/]

[]NPCs can flank, follow, search, and flee farther distances. NPCs will use more teammates in combat situations.[/]

[]NPCs will react to the world better around them. Explosions, dead bodies, and gunfire will now alert enemy NPCs at a farther distance than before.[/]

[]NPCs have better reaction times and less idle or down time while in combat.[/]
