I’m wondering where in the code are the lines of code responsible for the number of kills needed to get 1 point, and the line of code responsible for increasing this number.

I play on version 0.F, and use the mod already supplied with the game

This would probably be the [‘xp\_cutoffs’ variable in avatar.cpp](https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/blob/ef85f3ce35864947b54113c11cb2eec6bdf8522c/src/avatar.cpp#L1277-L1284).

I’m not sure what exactly you’re referring to with `increasing this number`… **The kills/XP necessary** to get 1 point, or the **points available**. If it’s the former case, that’s already covered.  
If you mean the latter, that’d be calculated in the [‘avatar::free\_upgrade\_points()’ function, also in avatar.cpp](https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/blob/ef85f3ce35864947b54113c11cb2eec6bdf8522c/src/avatar.cpp#L1286).
