Can you make a mod to remove all spiders, flies & civilizations? Like literally peaceful?

My mode is up to date so probably Small balance changes has conflicts.
My other mods may help' like Humans+, until Small balance changes will be updated.

I ran tests on these variables. See my bug report here:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/app/1055090/discussions/1/2970650651603405062/

So, you are mostly correct. The xml file description is wrong, and actually the opposite works - at least for <digSpeedMultiplier>, <itemBuildSpeedMultiplier> and <buildSpeedModifier>. Your values for these seem very reasonable.

However, my tests clearly showed that <levelSpeedModifier> is not backwards. Having a higher value for <levelSpeedModifier> does, indeed, mean skills level up faster. As such, I recommend increasing your values for <levelSpeedModifier> across all difficulties (except, perhaps, Insane). In particular, I'd recommend having it higher than "0.5" as it currently is for "Easy".

If the file description is wrong and it actually works the opposite of what is stated, then this has huge implications for the default difficulty settings. This would mean that the default "Peaceful" and "Easy" difficulties are actually the most difficult in terms of the speed of crafting, building, mining/digging, and especially for gaining experience/levels.

If that's the case, then someone definitely needs to officially post this as a bug. For the vanilla difficulties in GameDIfficultyInfo.xml:

<levelSpeedModifier> Easy & Peaceful = 1.0; Normal = 0.8, Hard = 0.6, Insane = 0.4
<itemBuildSpeedMultiplier> Easy = 1.5; Normal, Hard, Insane & Peaceful = 1.0
<digSpeedMultiplier> Easy = 1.1; Normal, Hard, Insane & Peaceful = 1.0

I think if i remember correct that the xml file description is wrong, and actually the opposite works/ if you have tested it and found that the mod really gives a decrease i will review the xml file as you stated. But i do remember fixing a bug of this sorts not long ago.
