Boss Scaling

Description
Scales the health of bosses dynamically with server population.

Giants from Don't Starve start at their single player values and scale up.

Bosses exclusive to DST have their vanilla value fixed at 6 players, and scale up or down from there.

Addtionally, adjusts some elements of the Ancient Fuelweaver fight to be based on the number of players.

1.This mod works
2.The scaling is backwards, so setting it to 10% will give bosses the most while 100% will give them the least
3.Having 6 ppl on the server will always give bosses the maximum health (as in what they would have without this mod, not including exceptions)
4.Exceptions: Deerclops, Treeguards, MooseGoose and her kids and Spider Queens use singleplayer health values and are not affected by either scaling or players, so for example Deerclops will always have 2000 hp with this mod on
5.For others here's the formula: BossHealth * (1 + (playerCount - 1) * SCALING) / (1 + 5 * SCALING)
-Bosshealth is the hp the Boss has without this mod (you get this from the wiki, use the DST value not the DS value no matter what it says in the desc, for ancient fuel weaver use 10000 instead of 16000, i have no idea why that one's changed)
-PlayerCount is self explanatory (1-6 based on how many ppl there are)
-Scaling is what you've set in the settings (for example 35% becomes 0.35)

does this still work? And if I wanna increase the difficulty do I decrease the scaling?
Like I dont want them to be so weak but not as stong as base game.

Is it possible to fix the Antlion fight? The mod didn't scale it down as it was supposed to.

can we select the base values? I want to make their hp (normal dst boss hp)*(player quantity)

i just fought ancient guardian with 100% scaling, 2 players, and it had 1.6k health. that doesn't seem right, considering DS ancient guardian has 2500 health

What are the base health values? Are they the same as their singleplayer don't starve counterparts?
