Below are a few examples of what you might see, and what the mod can do.

First-time setup

First time setup is easy, install the mod and its dependencies and start the game. A short walkthrough will let you configure the mod how you want.

Quick Configuration, Simple or Advanced

The panel's first page covers most worlds with a handful of settings:

• Max level - the most stars a creature or boss can have.
• Difficulty - Sets star chance and scaling per star.
• Monster modifiers - Adds new modifiers to creatures and bosses.
• Enable progressive scaling - Different ways to increase difficulty as you play.
• Enable color changes - Creatures change color with their star level.
• Enable advanced options - Shows all of the rest of the quick configuration options.

Advanced options start with the level pages. Level Distribution sets the star range and its spawn chances.

Level Scaling chooses what pushes levels up on top of that: distance, zones, regions and defeated bosses.

Features

Every setting, with examples, is in the documentation. The YAML files it describes are in BepInEx/config/StarLevelSystem/.

Levels

So you want creatures to have more levels, but you don't want to die instantly to a level 100 boar when you start the game? Well have I got the configs for you.

• Biomes - stats, spawn rate and star cap for every creature, or for one biome.
• Creatures - override a biome's settings for one creature, and choose modifiers it always spawns with.
• Level chances - the chance of reaching each star, with bonuses by distance from the center.
• Level generators - build those chances from a level range and a curve instead of writing a table, with a separate curve for bosses if you want one.
• Distance, zone and region scaling - raise level chances further from the center, or where the most creatures are killed. All off until you turn them on.
• Boss-conditional chances - older biomes get harder as world bosses are defeated.
• Custom biomes and larger worlds - biomes added by other mods work in every config file, and worlds resized by Expand World Size scale to their real size.
• The Deep North's final boss - the second phase stays as vanilla made it, since it can only be hurt by the explosions of the boss spirits it
