Or just edit your save. Find something like:

difficulty: X

Should be one the first lines. X denotes game difficulty(0 to 4)(, so change to whatever you like.

I have no doubt it's been answered before but there are innumerable pages on this forum. Beyond enemy unit counts, what all will change if I increase the difficulty on my current file? Will it affect enemy stats? Will it affect aerial combat? Will it affect my incomes at all, or cause them to cap out at lower maxes?

And while I'm clogging up the thread, one more question: Dioxine recently implied on the "What to do with Dr. X" thread that there might be mutually exclusive opportunities later down the road. For that reason, I've been hesitant to make any decision at all. That being said, it says that one thing she'll eventually lead to is !Into the Void! which affects game progression and all the tech reports leading up to it that I have really got my curiosity going. Am I missing anything significant gameplay-, story-, item-, or tech-wise by putting that off? At the end of the day this mod is already dozens of times the content and enjoyment of the base game so if it's just a quirky little mission waiting on further updates to enhance the questline I can wait for those updates

Considering that the mess and the weird experience are part of what keeps me coming back every few months, I guess I shouldn't worry then lol. I've updated probably 3 or 4 times total since I started in 2017 so it's always messy, and I've learned to... Prepare. I think I'm gonna wait at least one more in-game month

I jump in and out of the game every few months. My most recent update was L6 (Bag of Tricks), do I really have no choice but to start a new game if I want to slingshot myself past M1? I'm a few years in, in-game and irl, so if it's just that a few new things might not be in my file I am willing to make that sacrifice to keep my progress.
Also great and holy Dioxine I want you to know that I love what you do here
