Quick mod for tougher worms
I like nativelife, but it is so expensive for the gain. I've found this combo does wonders at helping myself and the AI at Native warfare:
Reduce the cost for Natives in alpha.txt (or alphax.txt) by 20-25%. Mindworms are 40, Isles are 60, Locusts are 80 (Sealurks and Spores similar). (Yes, beyond the Brood Pit which comes a bit late)
Increase the Psi bonus for Planet SE rating/penalties to 20%.
Benefits:
Natives are cheaper, and stronger for Green players.
Wild worms are only more powerful if you've got a Planet penalty. If your Planet is Zero, there's no change.
Fungboy and Dee can be real killers. The Cult gets +40%, and +100% vs. FM!
Free Market can HURT!
The Nexus is worth fighting over wherever it is on the globe.
Sea life is powerful enough to be useful.
