With its release this game has added a custom race ability, This is really cool but I found that the skill limit was a little small so does anyone know how i can increase the 60 skill point limit to say 120 or so, didn't see it in any of the XML's but i may have missed it.

I'm still downloading the update, but if there's nothing in the xml's to edit, what about trying a memory editor, such as Cheat Engine? When my game is updated, I'll give it a try and see if that works for you.



[Edit:added]

Looks like the answer is here (someone found the trait points in the xml):

Just remember the rules to editing these files, the ultimate length of the file cannot change. If you want to give one affinity 999 skill points, you'll need to reduce another to single digits. And I checked, couldn't get the memory editor to work.

I personally just changed all the trait costs to either 1 or -0, either way, the file stays the same length.
