Lower XP Requirement (Non WotC)

Description
Lowers the XP points required till ranking up. I thought this mod would balance well with the soldier fatigue mod since your soldiers will see action less. If you use mods that greatly increase the amount of enemies in a pod you may not want to use this as your men will rank up very fast.

will this work with LW2?

Could this be modified to increase the amount of kills per rank? What are the original values for, say, Veteran?

@andrey_v_b Hopefully now troops won't be promoting as fast now while keeping the requirement still lower.

I want to reiterate that this mod is incorrect for commander and legendary difficulties. Playing with this mod will result in tripling your promotion rates on legendary difficulty. @CastledCard, I think you should address that issue. Here are the original kill requirements on the highest difficulty:

PerDifficultyConfig[3]=( \\
RequiredKills[0]=0, \\
RequiredKills[1]=1, \\
RequiredKills[2]=8, \\
RequiredKills[3]=18, \\
RequiredKills[4]=40, \\
RequiredKills[5]=70, \\
RequiredKills[6]=110, \\
RequiredKills[7]=175)

@Tabris Oopsies, I forgot to add them back in. Updated it with the kills back in.

I upgraded the mod and noticed that now the config file only shows the unused "RequiredXp" values. The numbers of kills are simply not there anymore.

Those were some nice missions today. :) Felt like I was in control again. Time to say goodbye to those sweet-sweet majors.

I think I figured it out! I'm playing on legendary and if you look at the default file, legendary has a much higher kill requirement than the other difficulties. And you have them all set to the same value. I'm going to use your mod as a base and just edit in the values for the legendary difficulty. Thanks!

@andrey_v_b I did just update it like a few hours ago that bumped up the XP requirement to be less extreme. Still might be extreme, but that's what tests are for.

So it's definitely a 40% increase? All my soldiers went from LT to CPT to MAJ in two missions. Otherwise, great mod, thank you very much!
