Bug: setting `AutoBalance.LevelScaling` to 0 causes all instance creatures to appear dead

[kjack9]

Current Behaviour

If AutoBalance.LevelScaling is set to 0, all instance creatures appear dead with a maximum health of 1. Creatures are still active and will attack if approached. Switching AutoBalance.LevelScaling to 1 resolves the issue.

Expected Behaviour

Setting AutoBalance.LevelScaling to 0 should skip level scaling for all creatures, but should still apply stat scaling.

Steps to reproduce the problem

1. Set AutoBalance.LevelScaling in the config to 0
2. .reload config
3. Enter any instance
4. Observe creatures that appear dead but will still attack.

To workaround the issue (if you don't want level scaling to happen), set AutoBalance.LevelScaling to 1 and then set AutoBalance.LevelScaling.SkipHigherLevels to 80 and AutoBalance.LevelScaling.SkipLowerLevels to 80. That should disable level scaling entirely without hitting the bug.

I am actively working on a fix.
