Universal Wasteland Expansion Version 30 Changenotes (Full)

Completely overhauled mod's entire folder structure to adhere to vanilla standards. In doing so, stability and performance have been greatly enhanced.
^Some biomes/zones will see quite a noticeable boost of stability and performance.(All meshes and textures, in-game, should load in much more quickly. Up to and including all weapons, armor, races, etc.)

Completely overhauled all weapon, armor, and item spawns, at all vendors
^Essentially, shops will have a much more varied supply of items, consistently(No longer will it be impossible to find an item, as it will no longer be buried under a ton of other items spawning in, instead...)

Lowered all squad sizes, in the entire mod...(Up to 50%, in some cases)
^Specifically, this was done with the intention of having the player utilize the "squad multiplier" in the game settings, to more finely tune the NPC squad sizes overall

Ensured all squads that need not be effected by the "squad multiplier" are properly set as such.
^Such as all shop's squads, bars squads(barhops), etc.

Balanced and lowered, in some instances, the chances of wrath or vengeance raids from occurring. (This was done in "tiers" so as to have weaker factions with less of a chance of wrath or vengeance raids progressing into further raids...
^In some instances, set them to be much smaller in scale, as well.
^^Had them have less of a chance of re-occurring after the first one triggered(especially for "weaker" factions)
^^^Tiered their frequency and severity, based on faction tier (ie. major, minor, or bandit)

Made it so that the campaign for killing a faction's leader only has the chance to trigger once.(Although, raids can progress to others still, based upon whether the raid was won or lost.)

Lowered the size of the vengeance/wrath campaign raids...
^This was also done with the intention of having the player utilize both the "squad multiplier" and "raid size" in the game settings, to more finely tune the NPC raid squad sizes.

Faction campaign squad sizes were set properly in "tiers" based upon the level of faction...

Created a weapon forge just for the created weapon grades (like one for the Holy Nation, or the Shek Kingdom)[Had the forges unlock with the research that unlocks each of the weapon types/makes]
^Multiple tiers, per faction weapon forge type...
^^In doing so, took all these weapon types/makes off of the regular weapon forge then, as well...

Created a generic larger 100% chance bounty(5-10k, major; 2.5-5k, minor) officer character, for all major and minor factions, that has a very small chance to homeless spawn into their home biomes...
^Basically, created a new squad, with a new generically named Paladin-level officer, for all factions...

Completely overhauled all hiver towns, up to and including their capitals. Some towns were even moved entirely...(That is an entire overhaul of over 30 locations on the map!)
^Implemented the building assets from both the Hive Buildings mod, by Camelspyder, and Hoser Hiver Buildings mod, by Hoser.(Special thanks, to both Camelspyder and Hoser, for allowing for the use of their mods and their assets in congruence with UWE...)
^^Effectively, the hivers now utilize walls and gates, along with having a much more defensible string of villages.
^^^Created "metal" versions of all the new Hive Buildings, as well...(Mech Hive)

Adjusted the naming conventions for the hiver villages, to ensure continuity and logic.

Ensured all the Hive Buildings are properly researchable and craftable
^Setup all Hive Buildings to cost Authentic Building Material and foul raw meat, to make it a little more difficult to build

Ensured all hiver villages have a unique FCS entry, for overrides and to ensure diversity in design, between villages.

Overhauled all the Hiver Buildings, to ensure they no longer have misplaced light nodes or turret nodes...

Setup Hiver Villages, so that a faction's "core" villages are built with larger, more sturdy walls...

Setup the Southern Hive with proper overrides for the Deadhive taking their villages, with them having a chance to take back some of them
^Made it so that the race can't just be wiped out so easily...
^^Made it so the villages in Royal Valley stay with the Southern Hive, while the ones in Greyshelf all turn.(The closest armory in Greyshelf, to the capital, is able to be retaken, by the Southern Hive, too)

Created corresponding interiors, for all added in Hive Buildings, from both the Hive Buildings mod and the Hoser Hive Buildings mod.
^Effectively, giving the hivers their own proper feel and depth of an actual full fledged faction.

Added in 5000+ new names, to be randomly generated for various characters throughout the map. Naming is based upon racial and regional naming conventions.

Added all kinds of changes to the naming and name swap system, to ensure (generically-named character) names have a chance to be shared across racial lines, beyond just a specific faction/region.

Balanced all naming chances, for appropriate regional and racial specific naming conventions.

Came up with names specifically for the hiver characters.
^Supposedly, to be "based on the first thing they see"...

Adjusted all added in names to be of uniform style and such.
^All names with a dash in them were made into a single word name.

Added in a set of names to be utilized by only the hiver races/factions.
^Hivers are named based upon "the first thing they see"

Added a generically generated name chance word swap on all the generically named recruits...(Essentially, instead of only having a pool of ~600 names, these characters will have a pool of ~5,000 names, instead. Depending upon race, region, and faction)[Leads to much more dynamic naming, even for simple recruits.]

Ensured the various races within mixed factions have the chance to have names more based on their racial and regional background, than their current faction. And vice versa...
^This is especially obvious in factions such as the Holy Nation Outlaws or the United Cities.

Greatly increased the sell prices of all buildings, throughout the map.

Created and added in severable limbs for all races. Effectively, all races can now lose limbs and equip robotic replacement limbs more readily.
^All limbs had corresponding icons created for them, as well.(This includes all Skeletons, Hivers, and Scorchlanders)

Adjusted all animal races with hair to have more closely matching hair colors to the races body colors. Altered all generic, colored bonedogs to have their hair colors more reigned in to be fitting on the corresponding bonedog.

Added in Alpha variants of all animals...
^There is a 50% chance to spawn one, into corresponding squads.

Set the "cages lock level," "containers lock level," and "doors lock level" on all factions...
^Effectively, ensuring the lockpick skill is no longer a skill to forget and still reap the benefits of it's use...

Set the "health" of doors on Outpost buildings to be much higher, to balance out their higher lockpicking skill need.

Set appropriate faction relations, for all factions, in order to lower the chances of neutral factions going to war, along with towns breaking out into all out war between factions that otherwise should not be enemies.

Overhauled all camp squads, to have more than one squad spawn at them, at a time, along with utilizing the camp, patrolling the nearby biome, and coming back to rest with the wounded on a "schedule," instead of just staying right in the camp the whole time.
^This was done for all factions with camps

Cleaned up the settings on all camps, in general, for a cleaner and more usable camp layout.
^Up to an including the inclusion of mounted crossbows, at some camps.

Tested and overhauled all errors to be found in the Kenshi.log and Kenshi-info.log, that are associated with anything to do with UWE or even vanilla.
^This mainly entailed very minor errors/issues, however, in fixing these minor things, it really sped up the FPS and load times, within various towns and biomes...

Drug trade culture prices, in general, were lowered heavily. Ensuring that illicit goods smuggling/running is still a profitable venture, but no longer an instant "get rich quick" scheme...

All other loot and such had it's trade culture prices heavily reworked, to ensure it's in line with the new balance for illicit goods prices.

Lowered the sell prices of all liquor and booze, across the board, on the Trade Cultures of various factions throughout the map...

Added in small corresponding faction squads, if the player is allied to said corresponding faction. (Ex. Anti-Slaver spawn chances, as spawns in The Great Desert and Hook, if the player is allied to the Anti-Slavers...)
^The following factions had corresponding squad spawns set in the listed biomes:
Dune Renegades(Great Desert), Hook Raiders(The Hook), Holy Nation Outlaws(Okran's Pride), Narko's Disciples(Okran's Pride), Flotsam Ninjas(Okran's Valley), Skeletons(Okran's Pride), Inhuman Hunters(Stenn Desert), Bele'coz(Stenn Desert)

Heavily lowered the stealth bonuses on any gear that has it...(Mainly Ninja Gear)

Ensured Shek Warrior Base 1 is not utilized for non-Shek Kingdom faction members.(It would cause some shek characters, outside the Shek Kingdom faction, to react as if they were a part of the Shek Kingdom faction...)

Various towns, throughout the map, were given a corpse furnace, to ensure all cities have a means of disposing of unwanted guests...

Heavily lowered the rewards for bringing in faction leaders/officers that may be considered a minor enemy of a faction.(For instance, bringing in Kral, Kraz, Ghost, Tora, or Yoshinga to the Shek Kingdom will no longer automatically ensure the player is allied to the Shek Kingdom. Instead, it will only increase the relations with the Shek Kingdom by +15)

Gave the various "large value bounty" characters a name swap, in place of their current name.(That way, every play you can be hunting differently named bounties, to keep it fresh)

Adjusted various buildings and furniture to be in their proper building categories...

Various buildings and furniture were given proper descriptions

Ensured all building groups are properly setup, with their corresponding vanilla building being the first selection in the category.(Effectively, modded in variants will no longer be the first selection in a category shared with a corresponding vanilla building.)

Adjusted anywhere created buildings or furniture was added in, where they take the place of the vanilla building, in the building menu(just like the foul raw meat campfire was doing, prior to being fixed...)

Ensured Hiver Bars sell more alcohol and food, and less or no random stuff anymore...

Added more trade goods/commodities to the hiver shops...

Created a backwards cap mesh
^Added it into all corresponding spawns.

Made it so that the campfires and cooking pots can't cook the more intricate meals at them...(Such as Foodcubes and Ration Packs, to ensure the cooking stove has even more reason to upgrade to, eventually.)

Made it so that the foodcube can be made with analogs to the GreenFruit(such as Brown Veggie)
^Placed them into all the vanilla variants' spawns
^^Created new variants of the Ration Packs too, for each of these...

Ensure all the created Foodcubes and Ration Packs are in all their corresponding spawn locations...
^They were placed in all the proper vendor lists, as well...

^As in their number that spawn in, in their homeless and camp spawns...(to make it feel like more of a proper "wolf pack")

Adjusted regular bonedog spawns back into some of the places the created bonedog spawns had previously replaced them...

Made it so that Land Bats seek corpses to eat, akin to the Bonedogs and Raptors...

Setup skimmers to eat corpses, that way they clean up battlefields somewhat too...(they already will, if they spawn in a nest, for some reason only...)

Added many more animals(like 7-10 total) at the Frontier Tamers towns

Lowered all bar squads/barhops faction-specific squads, across the map, to try and ensure everyone has a seat at the local bars...

Added in a Sturmijaz ally raid, that shows up for cannibal raids(only if the appropriate cannibal leaders are already dead tho, and their leader is alive...)

Ensured skeletons no longer spawn anywhere near Okran's Shield or Rebirth...

Hungry Bandit spawns were highly increased, in the Border Zone and surrounding biomes...

^^Ensured the Starving Bandits have much higher spawns, in Skinner's Roam, as well, before the Hill Marauder King and Dust King are no longer alive...

Spawns in Bast were balanced, so that cannibals have a much higher spawn rate/chance in the early game.
^Along with that, United Cities and Holy Nation spawns are based upon whether the player has progressed to the mid game...(If the Bastard King, Hill King, and Dust King are dead, along with the local cannibal leaders)

Fishmen were made to take over the Floodlands much more, if the Deluged King is dead.

Created a starving bandit camp, with basically nothing minimal amenities...

Setup the Starving Bandits to only attack others they outnumber more than 3-1

Weaker spawns in the Stenn Desert were also given much more spawns, for the early game...

Overhauled the "inventory content name" for all storages that included multiple item types.(To clarify what was possible to store...)

Added in a replacement limb-specific storage...

Add in small chances to have "bonuses" of 100-1000 cats, for a generic bounty brought in...(Should ensure a slightly more dynamic bounty system)
^Only have a 1% chance to get the 1000c bonus tho, with a 10% chance for a 100c bonus...
^^This was done for bringing in slaves too...(But with only a 100-400 cats bonus)

Overhauled all squads to no longer utilize the randomized "chosenfrom list" for their general spawns. Instead, utilizing the same system utilized for all other squad spawns.
^Effectively, it should ensure that squads spawn in much more smoothly and quickly...

Ensured all squatter squads had a proper faction set on them.

Lowered the possible number of nests and homeless spawns, in all biomes, to ensure stability and performance.(Some biomes were altered to unbalanced levels, prior.)

Added wooden sandals to the noble hunter character...(They had no footwear set for them, prior, for some odd reason)

Setup fishing, in general, to take "Fishing Material" to "reset the hook, put on new baits, add more line" and such...

Made fishing for Grand Fish much more labor intensive/more time-consuming, to balance to food/income source properly.
^All fishing is slightly rebalanced, to make it a little more difficult and time-consuming...

Ensure that all (overrides) for towns are set to either properly have residents override or not...
^Previously, some towns were set improperly, causing the entire town to just be for sale...

Took pickup town intruders off of any law enforcement ai packages. That way, they only pick up lawbreakers and people with bounties, and won't fill their cages with mere town intruders.

Racial bonuses were added back on all races that had them, in vanilla, but were  taken off, previously...
^Mainly effected various skeleton races and their Heavy Weapons stat
^^This change was made previously, due to the information available at the time. Thanks to Frankiewuzhere, we were able to ascertain that such a stat being set as a racial bonus is now working as intended again.

Ensured all AI Packages that have "go home go to bed" set directly in them, also have overlap of other AI goals, so that they don't just stand around aimlessly outside the town gates...

Ensured the Cold Bloods don't just attack the player on sight.

Increased the strength of the Rebel Farmers' HQ guards,(so they can't be destroyed easily by the NPC factions) along their strongest campaign raid...

^^Just less men, overall, too

Added proper storages for Authentic Building Material

Ensured the Fogmen have proper overrides for some of the Hive Buildings...

All interrogation dialogues had their "Bag Check (Minor Factions)" set appropriately at a few more places throughout the dialogues...
^Due to this not being set properly, the dialogue would have the opportunity to trigger endlessly, in rare occasions...

All hivers had their gate guard dialogue reworked, just as the Western Hive is...

All hiver override towns, for their villages, were setup appropriately, to balance out the use of all the new buildings...

Gave Dreg some kind of soil nutrition, so crops have some chance, instead of 0...
^Along with the None and Royal Valley biomes, as well...

Adjusted the hive capitals to be considered towns and not villages, for them to have a proper icon on the map
^Ensured to tweak their town circle, to make up for the change...

Made it so that the northern hive villages get taken over by the deadhive too...
^Up to and including, having to win back one of the villages from the deadhive...

Black Hound of Vain had it's wanted poster properly set to say 100k reward and not 1mil

Properly overhauled the gate guard dialogue to trigger when intended, along with no longer triggering or progressing if the player is no longer within a set of conditions...
^Effectively, the gate guards will no longer have a chance to follow the player endlessly threatening them...
^^Gate guards are much more likely to stay near the gates they are supposed to defend...

Properly setup all the gate guards sees player approach dialogue with crime alarms, instead of massive alarms.
^Also, setup all the all the gate guards sees player approach dialogue with dialogue setup to give up and run back to the gates(go home), if the player is no longer in the town of the corresponding faction

All gate guard dialogue will now properly "lock" the dialogue it is intended to, on all dialogue tree outcomes.(Previously, there were some outcomes that had the rare chance to lead to the dialogue erroneously staying "unlocked" to keep triggering for the player endlessly...)

Balanced out all the hiver factions spawns, to ensure the residents have a correct balance, without bloating the numbers of their villages...
^Southern Hive is slightly more buffed, in numbers, than their counterparts...

Hiver Factions all had their own faction banners created for them...
^Special thanks to Nyansdead, for their creation of these faction banners, along with the new UWE 2.0 Banner, in general
Midland Hiver racial stats slightly overhauled

Created an "intermediary" faction, for the Skeletons(Skeleton Traders)
^This was created due to their shops within United Cities, Tech Hunters, and Traders Guild towns...
^^If the player is the enemy of the Skeletons faction, the Skeleton Trader shops, in the United Cities, for instance, will not sell to the player...

Created dialogue for the United Cities that triggers and makes the United Cities enemies with the player, if the player is enemies with the Slave Traders or Trader's Guild
^This was done for the Holy Nation with the Rebirth faction too
^^This was also done for the Highlanders and the Slavers Prison faction too

Setup dialogue for the Slavers Prison to ally you, if you ally the Highlanders, through dialogue...
