Long Night Time Limit
A small tweak mod for Touhou: Lost Branch of Legend.
This is an experiment that reworks the Nighttime Fatigue request to add Time Limit 1 when you shuffle your draw pile multiple times mid-turn, rather than adding a Long Night card to the hand at the start of combat.
By default, Time Limit is applied every 2 reshuffles. You can change this and more in the config file (see below).
Reasoning
The intent behind this mod is as follows:
- Reducing the meta of thinning your deck and playing the same 1 or 2 cards over and over in a single turn, which trivializes the game. Time Limit hits you where it hurts
- Reducing the need to rely on Exile cards to get rid of Long Night in your hand, which would otherwise encourage the above playstyle even more
- Making large pile decks more fun and viable to play, since a larger deck means playing more cards before you run into Time Limit
- Making certain draw cards less of a brainless auto-pick, since they are now no longer always strictly positive in every case
- Making certain weaker Extra Turn cards a bit more powerful ("why would I play an extra turn with time limit when I can just draw 5 and generate bunches of mana?")
- Keeping it as an optional difficulty tweak by making it a Request, rather than an always-on thing
This is an early test, there may be edge cases I haven't thought of. This mod was made to prototype how this tweak would affect the game. Gameplay feedback is very much welcome and requested.
Installation
I recommend using the Steam Workshop or r2modman to install this mod (links below). For manual installation, grab the latest zip from the Releases section. Requires BepInEx since this is a Harmony mod.
Configuration
The mod generates a Bepinex config file when run. Check rokk.lbol.gameplay.LongNightTimeLimit.cfg in the config folder for more options.
By default, Time Limit 1 is added every 2 reshuffles in your turn (2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th reshuffle and so on).
Building
Clone this project, make sure the References are set up correctly (manually edit the .csproj to change the game dir), and then open the solution with Visual Studio. I use VS2022.
