Mini Atlas Mod - Addon - SOC Edition file

Mini Atlas Mod for SOC mini repack

This addon provides a compact version of the Atlas (Spawn Menu) Mod v1.1 specifically designed for this mini repack.

Key Features:

- Spawn a variety of vanilla NPCs, mutants, weapons, ammo, and more.
- Test and adjust gameplay elements like AI behavior and damage properties using spawned entities according to your preferences.
- Make all vanilla factions and mutants neutral towards the player by editing the game_relations.ltx file (instructions included).

Reduced Scope for Stability:

- This mini-mod excludes cut mutants to prevent potential crashes and streamline functionality.
- The smaller size also simplifies maintenance and adaptation for the mini-repack.

Compatibility:

- Works seamlessly with both the non-development and development versions of the Mini Repack (unless future updates specify otherwise).
- Compatible with existing saves.
- Can be used alongside ZRP utilities tools in the development version for expanded testing capabilities.

Usage:

- In-game (main menu), press F1 to open the entity spawn menu, F2 for items, and F3 for ammo (same as the original Atlas Mod).

Making Factions and Mutants Neutral:

1. Locate the gamedata\config\creatures\game_relations.ltx file.
2. Find the sections:
- [communities_relations] for factions.
- [monster_relations] for mutants.
3. In the first value column of each section, change all values from their negative numbers (e.g., -5000 for factions, -2 for mutants) to 0. This neutralizes their hostility towards the player.
4. Save the changes and load your game.

Additional Notes:

- Create a backup of your gamedata folder and savegames for safekeeping.
- While thoroughly tested, a rare crash might occur due to spawning a cut mutant. Please report such instances, including the content after the "FATAL ERROR" line in your xray_*.log file (located in your game configuration directory).
