HighQuotaRebalanced_Beta

THIS MOD IS CURRENTLY IN BETA, MEANING IT IS NOT FEATURE COMPLETE AND STILL SOMEWHAT BUGGY It also is not compatible with mods that add new items or change the vanilla moons in some way. There will be a config for full release allowing you toggle different patches. For now, don't expect this mod to work with other mods that also apply changes to the vanilla moons.

Description

HQR is meant to keep the vanilla feeling of the game with changes that make high quota more varied and more enjoyable to play by adding more emphasis on player choice and ways to counter enemies.
