Everything that happens in a game is programmed into it. From the most insignificant detail like the color of rain drops
to what happens in the out of bounds area. (Think Gta's Blue Hell.) If you don't put it in the code then it won't be
in the game. So it stands to reason that every single thing about a mission or an activity can be modded in some
manner because it is after all just code.
So I was poking around in the Insurance Fraud missions and I found a whole bunch of values that can
be manipulated to either increase or decrease the difficulty.
Here is the factories Insurance Fraud Level 1 (Fraud_Fc.xtbl)
Cash Award is how much you receive for passing the activity instance
Props Award is the amount of respect you gain for passing the activity instance
Goal is the amount of points that you must get to pass the activity instance
Duration is how much time you have to complete the activity
Max Spots is the amount of bonus areas that can spawn
Crazy Chance is the probability that a "crazy" driver will spawn
Coop Goal is the amount of points needed in coop
Crazy Hit Chance The Chance that "crazy" vehicles will try to avoid the player
Ring Money Percent After this much money is accumulated then the bonus ring will disappear.
Bonus Distance Max distance between bonus rings
Note: These values need to be changed in every level.
Bonus Center is the location of the spot
Bonus Radius is the size of the bonus area
Multiplier - Bonus Multiplier.
Min Speed Override - How slow can the cars go? (This will override the normal vehicle settings)
Max Speed Override - How fast can the cars go? (This will override the normal vehicle settings)
