Version 9 has a lot
There's safer code on the backend, there's new stuff too

• Fix for a crash on clients on Watchdogs day 2
• Scripted spawns can now change tier mid-heist (eg, go from spawning SWAT to spawning FBI with SWAT-FBI Level Mod)
• Substantial Panic Room overhaul, go check the GitHub readme for more information
• Improved implementation of Super Serious Surrenders and Maxed Assault Strength settings
• A couple factions now have SMG heavies (Murky, Federales, custom Russian FSB)
• Grace period setting has been split into a different mod
• Some rebalancing in the Assault Styles, Chicken Plate groups in particular
• More unit weapon settings
• More control over what difficulties Dozer varieties start spawning on

---

Simultaneously simplifies and complexifies enemy spawn groups
Also known as ASS, since it probably is

---

An enemy spawn group mod, crafted and refined for this one's tastes over the course of a good long while, with three distinct sets of simple yet alarming groups
In addition, the mod tweaks mission scripting for loud gameplay across many heists - many tweaks are small, some are much more significant
Requires Streamlined Heisting - also compatible with Super Serious Shooter
The mod is more difficult than base Streamlined Heisting, but its difficulty is customizable

---

Additional information about the mod is available on GitHub

Settings:

• Enable the ASS: Make the mod do the thing
• Level Mod: Make levels use a fixed response faction on any difficulty; disabled in Holdout; ZEAL Level Mods activate an additional matchmaking lock
• Assault Style: Choose which set of spawn groups to face
• Skill Level: Tweaks base values used for scaling
• Resistive Responders: All dominatable enemies are better at resisting domination on higher difficulties
• Difficult Dominations: All dominatable enemies are as adept at resisting domination as a heavy unit
• Super Serious Surrenders: All dominatable enemies will only give up between assault waves; effectively always active in Super Serious Shooter
• Absolute Values: Sets values that scale with chosen difficulty to use Death Sentence values
• Maxed Assault Strength: Always uses task data corresponding to 100% heist difficulty progression
• Maxed Law Multipliers: Always uses enemy spawn limits corresponding to a full crew, regardless of how many players there are
• True Patriots: Allow police to deploy gas grenades even when hostages are in the area
• Escapes: Allow escapes to occur
• Captain Winters: Allow Captain Winters to spawn; effectively always inactive in Super Serious Shooter
• Unit Weapons: Change the weapons used by some special enemies
• Dozer Rainbow: Allow given Dozer varieties to spawn on lower difficulties than usual

Notes:

• Only works as host
• Includes a tweaked version of Give Random Arms to Scripted Spawns
• Mission scripting for several maps has been tweaked - both to improve scripted spawn variety, and to improve game flow
• Some enemy-related modifiers and mutators have been tweaked to better work with the mod

For modders:

• Mod has global name ASS and uses similar names in added hooks and menu-related things
• Mods sets field ASS.been_there_fucked_that = true once scripts start running - check for this if checking if the mod is doing its thing
• Mod adds new class MoonTweakData, initialized as tweak_data.moon in a prehook to TweakData:_init_pd2()
• Hooks into core/lib/managers/coreworldinstancemanager, lib/managers/group_ai_states/groupaistatebase, lib/managers/group_ai_states/groupaistatebesiege, lib/managers/mission/elementjobstagealternative, lib/managers/mission/elementspawncivilian, lib/managers/mission/elementspawnenemydummy, lib/managers/mission/elementspawnenemygroup, lib/managers/missionmanager, lib/managers/modifiersmanager, lib/managers/mutatorsmanager, lib/managers/skirmishmanager, lib/network/base/networkmanager, lib/setups/gamesetup, lib/tweak_data/charactertweakdata, lib/tweak_data/groupaitweakdata, lib/tweak_data/skirmishtweakdata, lib/tweak_data/tweakdatapd2, lib/units/enemies/cop/copbase
