Description
Usurp the normal egg timing mechanism and replace it with a weighted chance of hatching. The criteria for scoring eggs is:
How populated the metaroom is vs its ideal population. (Highest weight.)
How many eggs are in the metaroom vs total eggs in the game. (Medium weight.)
The age of the egg. (Lowest weight.)

Usurp the normal egg timing mechanism and replace it with a weighted chance of hatching.
The criteria for scoring eggs is:
- How populated the metaroom is vs its ideal population. (Highest weight.)
- How many eggs are in the metaroom vs total eggs in the game. (Medium weight.)
- The age of the egg. (Lowest weight.)
The highest scoring egg is hatched.
You can customize this in various ways. For example, if you want to disable a scoring
criteria, you can simply set its weight to 0.0. (See below.)
You can also change ov00 to the maximum number of creatures in a metaroom. By default,
this isn't a hard cap; metarooms can exceed this number. However, it heavily encourages
eggs in other metarooms to hatch if the population of another exceeds this number. If
you DO want it to be a hard cap, you can set ov04 to 1.
If you want to change these values without re-injecting, you can do so with these commands:
rtar 1 1 41609 setv ov00 15.0 => Set the upper limit of creatures in a metaroom.
rtar 1 1 41609 setv ov01 0.4 => Set the weight of the metaroom population to 0.4.
rtar 1 1 41609 setv ov02 0.0 => Set the weight of the metaroom egg density to 0.0.
rtar 1 1 41609 setv ov03 0.2 => Set the weight of the egg age to 0.2.
rtar 1 1 41609 setv ov04 1 => Enable hard cap.
rtar 1 1 41609 setv ov05 1 => Enable debug messages.
NOTE: The Norn Meso heat pan will still hatch eggs normally! This means you, or a Norn, can drop
an egg there and it will hatch before any of the eggs prioritized by this script.
