Teleportation Shroud

When agents teleport into a building, the security systems notice and start increasing the alarm every turn. This program, "Shroud", pretends that the teleportation would be a guard using the telepad elevators, effectively leaving SecNet silent and without any suspicion.

The mod includes a single program, Shroud. You can select it when starting a new campaign, or rarely buy it for a hefty sum of creds.

When Shroud is installed, the Alarm Tracker will not increase after enemy activity. Instead, it will stay on 0.

However, there are problems:
- Should you get spotted by a guard, the Alarm Tracker will start increasing quickly.
- Shroud reduces Incognita's PWR capacity.
- If you want to start with Shroud, you must do without power generators. If you are lucky, you can find one later. Until then, avoid wasting power.

This mod is for people who like the idea of the "No automatic alarm increment" option in Custom Difficulty, but think it makes the game too easy.

Customise your challenge:
- BACKFIRE: Once the Shroud breaks, the automatic alarm increments are amplified by this setting. Default: +1
- CAP BACKFIRE: Backfire has no effect once the alarm has caught up. Default: Yes
- ALARM RATE: Instead of entirely blocking the automatic alarm, Shroud only slows it down by this factor. Default: Never
- ALARM CAP: When using the Alarm Rate setting, Shroud prevents the alarm from rising beyond this level. Default: 0 (i.e. Never)
- MAX PWR PENALTY: Shroud reduces the PWR capacity by this much. Default: 5
- BLOCK COUNTERMEASURES: Shroud blocks the Countermeasures daemon (if Shroud does not break first, of course). Default: Yes
- ALERT SENSITIVITY: What kinds of alarms break Shroud. Can be Weak (i.e. only directly getting spotted), Med (also KO guards waking up) or Strong (any alarm increase or alerted guard). Default: Med
