Configuring Automaton Difficulty and Spawn Rates

Adjusting Machine Health and Combat Balancing

You can customize the behavior and difficulty of the mod's mechanical enemies by editing the configuration files located in your instance's config folder. Open bonus_health_config.json in a text editor to increase machine health pools if you want longer, more challenging boss encounters and mob fights. To modify machine behavior, open combat_balancing_config.json. Inside this file, you can adjust enemy attack frequency to control how often automatons strike, as well as modify their sight radius to change how far away they can detect you.

Tuning Structure and Entity Spawns

If you want to alter how frequently ruins generate or how densely machines populate your world, modify spawn_rate_config.json. Adjusting the values in this file allows you to increase or decrease the frequency of subterranean structures like Blackreach and Raldbthar, floating End Dwarven Observatories in the void, and the wild mechanical enemies guarding those areas.
