Could there be a simpler way to adjust the allocation rules? For a person with poor English and no ability to edit documents, the existing way of adjusting is too difficult. Of course, I'm sure the author has a reason for making this adjustment, it's just a silly question.
I can understand your question. The rules are quite complex and have only gotten more complex with each update. At the current point in time, where the mod is pretty much complete, it would require a ton of work to change the rules to a more user friendly format. It would also make some of the rules much longer. I consider the current form of the rules a compromise between readability and work needed on my part. I know that other mods like OAR have in-game editors, but that was an insane amount of work on their side, which I am not willing to do, the mod with its ~16k LOC is large and complex enough as it is. You can simply open the ini files in your build-in editor to edit them, and including the console commands and examples from the existing ini files, there should be enough tools to make rule creation easy enough.
Would love to see distribution rules for Beyond Skyrim - Bruma, The Gray Cowl of Nocturnal and possibly Falskaar. Don't believe other mods without patches need it as much at the moment.
This topic is meant to be used to report items that should not be distributed, make requests regarding rules for mods, or requests regarding the distribution rules for npcs itself. You can also make suggestions as to what you want to see changed / included.

Rules for all three mods have been included. If you notice anything amiss give me a shout ^^.
Going to report if there is anything missing.
