Make the Mod effect come in arround Xmas in a single Patch turnign down the server. O and let a script run through all Ruin items adding Mods randomly to the items with the same chance they are intended in the colony, as little Xmas present so to say
Remark nr. 1: I say added since there might be modded ruin items out there modded via the old Halloween contest and those winner should be awarded wiht a chance of getting a extra mod.
Remark nr.2: There is a fair chance all the ruins out there get less worthly since i see a run on massextracting ruin come up (there costs arent that high) so that all current ones more or less run worthless(if not used ion BPs elsewhere). Will create penelty to the current possessors. Anyways make it a Xmas script present! ;D
