README

ALL PLAYERS MUST HAVE THIS FOR THE MOD TO WORK

  • This does not work in custom rundowns, or mods that overwrite the vanilla levels. (Datablocks not in the same folder as the levellayout can overwrite this mod and cause it to not work)

  • As of the current update all achievements should be working

This mod adds checkpoints to the almost all vanilla levels. The only levels without checkpoints are
-R2A1
-R2B1
-R3A2

As I was unable to find a reasonable place to put checkpoints in these levels.


I tried to keep checkpoints in non-disruptive spots, to not break the flow of levels, only a few select levels (generally featuring constant alarms) I decided to put a checkpoint somewhere that could be considered disruptive, But I made sure it seemed as minimal as possible.

I also took into consideration of alternate routes, and forced routes (places the player has to go or could go to complete the main objective) and tried to avoid optional routes (resource rooms and such) for checkpoints. Aswell as completing layers in different orders to have the checkpoints be viable whichever way you decide to run a level.

Obviously checkpoints are notorious for introducing bugs, so some checkpoints may seem sketchy (Like checkpoints in R2D2 (Reactor Level) could introduce complications) But I still followed my options based on the mentions above.

I also tried to avoid free checkpoints (Checkpoints that require little to no work to reach) or checkpoints that could be taken before seeking another area (such as an optional area). This is eased on lower tier levels. I added a checkpoint to R7C1 that I am unsure about that faces these problems, this may or may not stay.

NOTE - some checkpoints have been altered in R6 - R8

This mod was made initially for personal use with a casual group but I decided why not upload it anyways.

Now here is a full list of all checkpoints added (mostly for dev purposes)

Zone(Number) - Zone Index Number
(Layer/Dimension) - Main, Secondary, or Overload and Dimension Location
Set 0 - Set ChainedPuzzleType to 0 to avoid double scans
Set 4 - Set ChainedPuzzleType to 4 to add a team scan, for removed checkpoints
---- No Checkpoints Eligible - Could not find a suitable spot for a checkpoint within the level
Unchanged - Level left as is (it already has decent checkpoints)
(Alternate Main) - Alternate path where the end goal could reside, like the HSU in R3C1
!!! REACTOR CHECKPOINTS - A checkpoint is in this level during the reactor startup sequence (could introduce game breaking stuff)
Risky - During a section like an ://ERROR alarm so this could affect the level
Moved - Checkpoint moved to a nearby door
Removed - Checkpoint removed entirely (usually replaced somewhere else)
(Removed Team Scan) - Fixed a checkpoint in the vanilla game that had a team scan attached to a checkpoint,
only known one is in R6D1
