Elin's PEAK

Elin's PEAK adds persistent, use-based progression to PEAK. Train skills by performing their related actions, retain progress between sessions, and build a character without allowing the host to choose everyone else's level.

Highlights

• 22 skills with a default maximum level of 999.
• Player-owned local progression with safe saves and rotating backups.
• Strength, Endurance, Athletics, Agility, Resilience, and separate wall, rope, and vine climbing.
• Wet Grip for slippery climbing and Climbing Tenacity below 20% stamina.
• Separate Resistance and natural Recovery skills for Poison, Cold, Heat, Drowsy, and Spores.
• Hunger Tolerance that trains while moving at 30 or more Hunger.
• Pack Rat inventory progression with built-in main and backpack slot expansion.
• Pause-menu panels with skill levels, hover explanations, and current bonuses.
• No XP gain in the Airport/lobby.

Inventory progression

Pack Rat unlocks up to four additional main-inventory slots and five additional backpack slots. Carrying items beyond the vanilla limits adds weight, movement, and stamina penalties; Pack Rat progressively mitigates those penalties.

Do not use MoreSlots or BackpackCapacity alongside Elin's PEAK. Their functionality is built into this mod.

Progression and saves

Levels use XP(next) = round(100 * level^1.21). Progress is stored per player at:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\LandCrab\PEAK\PEAKUsageSkills\progression.json

The mod keeps five rotating backups.

Compatibility notes

• Built for PEAK 2.1.a.
• PeakStatsEx may continue to show its cached rounded weight number even though gameplay weight is recalculated immediately.
• Hunger keeps the game's 2.5-point display increments.
• Final multiplayer runtime validation is still pending.
• Anti-farming and diminishing-return systems are intentionally deferred.
