Changelogs
Updated for Solaris Showdown.

This mod was created and tested on Epic Launcher with the DLC, and an online connection.


--- Introduction ---

This mod is strongly recommended to make the game enjoyable. No more illogical deployments or dealing with unfair penalties.

You may need to jump to other star systems, or even further away, to generate new contracts for the mod to take effect.
Not responsible for any issues caused by running with multiple other mods, or managing custom mod load orders.

Unzip the download, and place the "MaxTonnage" self-contained folder into the "Manual Install Folder" and use the built-in mod manager to enable or disable.

The Mods Menu has a button for the "Manual Install Folder" and clicking it will open it up for easy access.



--- Summary ---

Noble Cause, Distress Call, Blood and Treasure, every campaign mission is now a more proper fight against enemies that spawn out of thin air.

Update #1 includes 28 missions from the Heroes of the Inner Sphere DLC quests.

Update #2 includes 14 campaign and 19 quest missions from the Legend of the Kestrel Lancers DLC.

Update #3 includes 5 missions from Call to Arms.

Update #4 includes 12 campaign and 1 quest mission from Rise of Rasalhague.

Update #5 includes 15 campaign missions from The Dragon's Gambit.

Update #6 includes 7 campaign missions from Solaris Showdown, but only 3/7 are 4 player coop-able. Tonnage penalties removed.


--- Trivia ---

The original game launched on December 10, 2019 with a forced tonnage limit. You could not go above it at all, and flexible mission tonnage, now known as Over-Tonnage, was not available back then.

Over-Tonnage and its penalty systems were added on June 7, 2022 with DLC #3 Call to Arms.

Even with Over-Tonnage, there are still missions that do not allow 400 tons to be dropped, and this mod aims to solve that.

Arena matches added in DLC #6 required a different approach for modding.


--- Conclusion ---
