Current version: 1.0
Please refer to the changelog for patch notes.
This mod rebalances various aspects of combat in SE. Armor health as well as block health in general is buffed and the various weapons are brought more in line with sensible values. In addition to that, several mods that influence combat in different ways are incorporated.
AQD - A Quantum of Depth is a project of mine, encompassing multiple small and larger mods aimed at improving the gameplay experience and eventually overhauling larger parts of the game:

- Rebalancing weapons is currently very limited because they derive their damage etc. from the ammo type they use. To keep this mod as unintrusive as possible, I've opted to not introduce new ammo types and instead have adjusted other values to achieve the desired results.
- Exploding reactors and tanks introduce weak points to grids that need to be protected by the now buffed armor. This means that targeting these specific parts of grids is now much more important.
- This is but a first version of this mod. I will be making more adjustments based on tests and feedback.
- Consider upvoting this bug report. Getting that bug fixed will allow me to balance the gatling gun in a more nuanced fashion. :)
