Wiseman Difficulty Level

[RandallS_1985]

Are you tired of wondering which difficulty setting makes a fair game between you and the AI? Well, this might be your answer. I created this mod to add a difficulty setting called Wiseman, which I hope will solve this dilema. However, I haven't had much time to test the fairness of it; though I have tested its functionality, and it is working perfectly. I encourage everyone who is interested to take a test drive with it and give me your input so I can modify it accordingly. And perhaps if there is enough interest in this type of mod component, I might create one with an array of difficulty settings. So, on the note if you can think of anything you would want in a difficulty setting, tell me.Have Fun!

(IF YOU WANT THIS IN A MOD PACK)
3. Locate the folder for the MOD you want to add this too
4. Drag the assets folder into the Main MOD folder
5. If you are asked to overwrite something...
Your MOD already uses one or more of these files, you will have to copy-paste the new codes.

HOW TO COPY-PASTE XML CODE (IF NEEDED)

Spoiler :

1. You will only need to do this if there is already an exsisting copy of the file in the place you
are trying to make changes. If there is only one such file, you can still drag in the other
ones.
2. On both conflicting files: right click on them and select edit; it should open in Notepad.
3. find the code located in my file, that is not in yours, it will have "wiseman" in the block
And these files are indented. You will need that whole group of code.
4. Highlight the new code and copy it.
5. Go to your file and paste it in between two code groups (NOT in the middle of one)
6. Save the changes and you should be good to go!
