All settings are world-scoped and live under Configure Settings → Mindful Encounters. A pacing profile applied to a scene overrides Cap Source, Cap Multiplier, Default Per-Turn Cap, Seconds Advanced per Turn, Actions per Turn, and Over-Budget Behavior for that scene. Applying a profile also sets whether the scene uses a shared party budget.
