Suggest Edit: Balance Flags (Developer Values)

Edited Content

<p>The <strong>balance flags</strong> are the developer-set base values the game reads for stamina, health, raids, client generation, employee wages, bills and more. This page lists every flag in the game's balance table with its stored value. Player-facing multipliers (see <a href="/wiki/dds2/cartel-settings-difficulty-presets">Cartel Settings &amp; Difficulty Presets</a>) are applied <em>on top of</em> these base values.</p><div class="info-box"><p><strong>Reading this page.</strong> The flag names and developer notes in the game files are written in Polish; the "What it does" column is a literal translation. Where the developer left no note the entry says so. Units follow the notes (seconds, grams, bolivars, game units); where the tables do not say, no unit is given. A "test-mode" value exists for some flags and is presumably only used by developer test builds.</p></div>
