NZK MOD 3.1 README news

The main character - Kaidanovsky, aka Kaidan, is an employee of the private agency "Omega".
The main task of the protagonist is to understand who he is, what his past is, what is happening in the present, what this formation is - the Zone. Who is the Shooter about which there are so many stories and rumors. The search for "his" life path, his place among stalkers, those who come to the Zone for a while and sometimes stay here forever - this is the main incentive that drives our hero to go all the way ...
Two new main storylines have been added to the mod:
1. Added NLC main story
Restored many quests from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadows of Chernobyl
2. Added the main storyline from the Omega Option mod

BALANCE
The attitude of factions towards the GG has been changed - now, playing as Loners, you can complete the tasks of Bandits, Military and Mercenaries (as in the original CoP). Changes in relations affected only the GG and do not affect the game balance in any way. By the way, sooner or later you will have to choose which group to work for by completing certain tasks, so maintaining neutrality will be quite problematic.
In general, this concept brings the game closer to an RPG and gives you the choice in which direction to develop relations with one or another group.
the changes affected only the Loners, while playing for the rest of the factions, the relationship will remain the same as in the original Anomaly
