AdjustedMechSalvage is a BattleTech mod (using ModTek) that changes the rules that mech parts get generated.
- install BattleTechModLoader using the instructions here
- install ModTek using the instructions here
- Your own mechs now get destroyed and leave behind salvage.
- Number of salvage is now based the number of parts you destroyed.
- You get DefaultMechPartMax(number needed to assemble a mech) - DefaultMechPartMax / 5 parts for each arm or leg the target lost.
- CT lost is 0 parts
DefaultMechPartMax is set to 5:
- 5 - 1(leftleg destroyed) - 1(Rightleg destroyed) = 3 parts
DefaultMechPartMax is set to 3 or 5:
- CT destroyed, rightleg destroyed = 1 parts
- CT destroyed destroyed = 1 parts
- CT destroyed, rightleg destroyed, leftarm destroyed = 1 parts
DefaultMechPartMax is set to 3:
- 3 - 0,6(rightarm destroyed) - 0,6(rightleg destroyed) = 1,8 rounded to 2 parts
Downloads can be found on github.
- ownMechsForFree - bool - default false - Places the parts of the mechs you loose yourself directly into your inventory instead of making you salvage them.
- ejectRecoveryBonus - float - default 0 - Flat Bonus to your recovery chance if you punshed out.
- incapacitatedRecoveryBonus - float - default 0 - Flat Bonus to your recovery chance if pilot got incapacitated.
Example: RecoveryRate set to 0.5 -> Can rolls 0-1 0.6 -> eject bonus is 0.15 -> 0.5+0.15 = 0.65 -> 0.6 is smaller then 0.65 so mech is recovered
