Jiz Falcon Chainjit

If you've played Forest Village, it is my bet that you probably see one, or maybe even two, game behaviors where you don't exactly see eye-to-eye with the developers at Bitbox. Maybe it's some balace issue like how much meat you get from a deer. Perhaps you don't like the amount of fog or the severity of the weather. Or a physical characteristic like how much villagers are capable of hauling or how fast they walk or dialing back their voracious appetites. It could even be the cost of building something like an expedition or a stone road.
Whatever it may be, however annoying you find it, if you've ever said to yourself "Damn, I wish I could jiz falcon chainjit" then this is the Mod for you.

Jiz Falcon Chainjit, or JFC for short, is a live configuration editor for LIF- Forest Village. It provides players the ability to change game configuration settings which affect the behavior, presentation, and balance of the game play experience while a game is in progress.

The game developers over at Bitblox have exposed to modders an impressive array of these settings that allow the game to be tweaked. While JFC is a live editor, unlike most Mods of its kind, it may surprise you to learn many, maybe even most, of these available configuration settings are not "Hot". This means changing them during play will have no effect. They are instead intended to be modified at load-time, and are only recognized and applied by the game engine at that time. JFC lets you save the changes you make, and set up JFC to automatically apply them when you next reload a game or restart a new game. You can learn more about this in the built-in Help system.

The available configuration settings that JFC lets you change includes:
.....1) All of them.

You can access JFC using a button found in the General Information area of the game's Main Menu button panel. When you open the JFC interface, the game will be paused and several windows which interfere with JFC's windows will be temporarily hidden while the interface is active, if they are open at the time. JFC restores your game interface when it is closed.

JFC does not protect you from much. Changing configuration settings inherently carries with it the potential to crash the game. The philosophy JFC employs is to permit players to make whatever changes they want, no matter how ridiculous they may be. It does some minor things to keep you from doing things that are very probably or definitely going to crash the game, such as setting a minimum value setting greater than its associated maximum setting, but it does little to prevent outlandish values from being used. If you want a force of 2200 vikings to raid your village, then JFC will let you try it. Whether the game will remain operating under those settings is debatable, but JFC will not stop you from attempting such things. Silly settings are going to produce silly results, and JFC isn't going to stop it from happening 99% of the time.
