📋 About This Mod
After a few (hundred) hours of gameplay, I grew more and more annoyed at the crappy loot I saw on Mannequins. It always seemed to be Deep Mining gear, with maybe a Space Trucker suit thrown in every once in a while. Not to mention the Mantis gear, which was always woefully underleveled after your first playthrough.
Turns out all the mannequins spawn at level 1. Which means the leveled lists spawn the crappiest gear on them. So I added a flag to make them spawn at the same level as the player. Now their loot isn't always terrible, and the Mantis gear is pretty decent. Crazy world we're living in.
