Hi. I play this game too much, so i need many alien science packs. But every time i try too destroy one of the bases, I die :(

So maybe its possible too make a Mod which lowers the HP and the Damage from Biters? (Or is there a way that i can change these stats in the config? Would be ok too ^^)

Sorry for bad english ;)

To alter the HP of all biters, jou just have to search for :

Code: Select all

max_health =
in demo-entities.lua and entities.lua (which you can find in \data\base\prototypes\entity folder in your Factorio install directory) and replace the values by smaller values.
I don't know how to make a mod to alter these things, but I'm sure it's piece of cake to do :)

Best not to alter those files. Mismatch data in mp. Also updater might not like it. I suggest a mod.
e.g.
eazybiters_0.0.1.zip
(7.91 KiB) Downloaded 184 times
data.lua has hp and dmg factors in first to lines. I left both at 50%
I did not add worm hp alternations (worms are turrets, if someone wants take a look.)
