README

Replaces the per-stage exponential with a time-based exponential scaled to an expected stage completion time.

Old StageFactor calculation: 1.15 ^ StagesCleared

New StageFactor calculation: 1.15 ^ (Time / ExpectedStageClearTime)

Default ExpectedStageClearTime is 7 minutes

  • 5 minutes seems to be the expecation of Vanilla, but is unrealistic to how people actually play the game
  • Originally tried 6 minutes, but seemed too punishing for stages 4-5 and Mithrix

CHANGELOG

1.0.1

  • Increased baseline from 6m to 7m. (Existing config unaffected)

6m punished typical stage 4-5 gameplay too much, as well as any nonstandard stage like Moon and Conduit Canyon. Additionally, difficulty exponentially increasing mid-stage proved to be a bigger factor than initially anticipated.
