Swapped Concealment and Stealth skill descriptions
Modified Gourmet skill description to ensure it fits
Nerfed Pistol Certification from 25/50/75% to 20/40/60% damage and tweaked a couple other values for consistency
Buffed Heavy Weapon Certification from 20/30/40% damage to 20/35/50%, and reload speed from 25% to 35%
Reduced Gymnastics Rank 2 movement speed and brought back a bigger buff at Rank 4, also hid the effect in the status tab
Version 1.3.2
Fixed an issue with Lasers Rank 4 effect/damage both applying to Particle Beams
Fixed Leadership skill so it applies the correct 25% bonus to affinity gain, instead of 15%. Also gave it a 50% affinity gain effect at Rank 3
Clarified Marksmanship's Challenges requiring a non-automatic ranged weapon, rather than just a ranged weapon
Version 1.3.1
Fixed an issue with the Gymnastics skill duplicating into a bugged version of itself (I still don't know how this happened but it's fixed LOL)
Fixed an issue with the Gymnastics skill speed bonus not getting applied at Rank 4
Plugin name will be standardised going forward from this version, so you don't get the "Mod is no longer installed" message after updating
Version 1.3
Gymnastics: Removed Rank 4 speed effect (this felt overly fast, and Rank 2 was enough extra move speed)
Shield Systems: Smoothed out progression curve to 15/30/45/60% shield capacity, added in Rank 4's resistance effect at Rank 2 with half the chance, slightly increased Challenge requirements (progression on this one was kinda boring, and didn't feel very incentivised to take Rank 4)
Demolitions: Changed Skill Challenge from "Kill 20/50/100 enemies with explosives" to "Deal 500/1000/2000 damage with explosives" (feels much more natural and Demolitions' Challenge was egregious to level), also changed reload speed at Rank 3 to 30% from 50%, and fixed a bug where that effect wasn't being applied at Rank 4
Lasers: Smoothed out damage curve from 20/30/40/40% to 10/20/30/40% increased damage. Added new effect at Rank 2 which makes Laser weapons 20% more accurate (wanted to add a new effect at Rank 2 for weapon-type skills, also lasers SHOULD be accurate), removed their increased mag size Rank 4 effect. Also smoothed out Challenge progression from 20/50/100 to 25/50/75 kills with Laser weapons
Ballistics: Smoothed out damage curve from 20/30/40/40% to 10/20/30/40% increased damage. Added new effect at Rank 2 which makes Ballistic weapons deal 20% more damage with crits (wanted to add a new effect at Rank 2 for weapon-type skills), changed their Rank 4 effect from 25% increased fire rate to 40% increased range. Also smoothed out Challenge progression from 20/50/100 to 25/50/75 kills with Ballistic weapons
Incapacitation: Smoothed out damage curve from 20/30/40/40% to 10/20/30/40% increased damage. Added Rank 4's chance to do 300% damage effect at Rank 2, with a 10% chance, changed Rank 4's chance to 20% (wanted to add a new effect at Rank 2 for weapon-type skills). Also smoothed out Challenge progression from 400/1000/2500 to 500/1000/2000 damage with EM weapons.
Particle Beams: New Rank 2 effect to increase crit chance by 20%, and new Rank 4 effect to increase critical headshot damage with Particle Beam weapons by 20% (wanted to add a new effect at Rank 2 for weapon-type skills). Also smoothed out Challenge progression from 20/50/100 to 25/50/75 kills with Ballistic weapons
Boost Assault Training: Halved the requirements for all Skill Challenges (these were too tedious imo)
Marksmanship: Smoothed out critical hit chance to 10/20/30% from 5/15/25%, smoothed out Challenge progression from 10/30/75 to 25/50/75 critical hits. Also made Challenges only completable with a non-automatic ranged weapon (as the skill only helps non-automatic weapons).
Version 1.2.1
Small fix to the "Chemistry" skill to make sure the buff duration is working as intended
Adds a 50% effectiveness buff to chems at Chemistry Rank 3
Version 1.2

Pain Tolerance: Physical and Energy resistance increased to 20/30/40% from 10/20/30%, and chances to reflect or ignore damage increased to 20% from 10%. Also incorporated effects from cut skill "Mindfulness" which mean EM damage is reduced 20/30/40% and same chance to reflect EM as energy damage.
Decontamination: Chances of recovering from infections clarified with numbers and increased to 10/30/50% from 10/20/30%
Persuasion: Changed progression curve from 10/30/50/70% increased persuasion chance to 15/30/45/60%, also reduced challenges from 3/5/10 successful persuasions to 2/4/8

Fitness scaling changed from 15/30/50% to 25/50/75% and given "Sprinting and power attacks now use 25% less oxygen." @ rank 2, moved to Tier 2 to make room for Gourmet
SOCIAL
Persuasion XP effect removed (reported not working) and buffed chances of successful persuasion slightly to make up for it
SCIENCE
Chemistry makes positive effects from chems last 50/100/200% longer at ranks 1/3/4, addiction chance 25/50% lower at ranks 2/4, 10% chance to double crafted chems @ rank 2, 10% chance to quadruple @ rank 4
