Impactful Skills
[b]Skill-to-stat scaling, configurable and lightweight[/b]
Every skill level matters. Each point adds a clear, configurable bonus to key pawn stats with clean math, simple text inputs, and instant preview.
[b]This mod is not designed to use Harmony, which means many values—like harvest yield—will still be limited by vanilla hard caps. I’m working on a new Harmony-enabled mod to support modded skills and remove these vanilla limitations.[/b]

Highlights
[list]
[*] Balanced defaults: most stats reach about +/-50% (or +0.50 for 0-1 stats) at level 20. Global Learning reaches +100%.
[*] Fully configurable in Mod Settings -> Impactful Skills (global multiplier, caps, per-stat overrides, XML reload/reset).
[*] Works with skill levels above 20 (linear scaling).
[*] No new items, no quests, no bloat. Lightweight StatPart injection.
[*] Add or tweak rules via settings or XML (hot reload button available; manual XML editing is optional).

[/list]
Compatibility
[list]
[*] RimWorld 1.6
[*] Save-friendly; can be added or removed mid-game (stats recalc automatically).
[*] Compatible with most mods. If another mod adds stats, you can target them by adding rules in the XML.
[*] Note: vanilla Carrying Capacity (the stat) does not change the caravan or encumbrance mass limit; it affects carry jobs.

FAQ
[list]
[*] Is it OP? Defaults are punchy but clean (mostly +/-50% at L20). Tweak everything in settings or via XML.
[*] Levels over 20? Supported; scaling is linear (caps apply if you enable them).
[*] Performance? Very light; uses a single StatPart per affected stat.
