Some enemy spawn changes to make the multiplayer experience more fun and balanced. Meant for solo.

Extended Mod Description

Some changes I thought were necessary due to the enemy designs. It shouldn't feel like facing two bosses at the same time anymore. This is my response to making the MP a little bit more fair and balanced for solo play. Plus credit farming.

Notes: Currently WIP. Testing with Cerberus Gold. Everything else is vanilla experience.
