Dear community,
welcome to the official TweakMod thread, here on Greenheartgamesā community forum.
TweakMod will bring you a lot of gameplay related improvements and aims to tweak various aspects of the game.
The mod allows you to cheat āhonestlyā, focusing on improving some areas of the game and leaving on how to use the tweaks up to the user.
The complete functionality of the NoTypeWriterMod has been included in the new TweakMod (this is why NoTypeWriterMod development has been discontinued).
I had the idea of this expansion when I was working on my other mod InfoStatsMod, because it was very painful to replay the game many times while having to click on all those notifications, wait for the typewriter (and clicking like mad), for the conference dialog and the review screens. I needed a solution which would allow me to control various aspects of the game, so this idea was born.
I would recommend TweakMod also to mod writers, as it allows to dramatically increase smoothness and speed when playing the game for the n-th time.
