Enemies With Items

By Basil & Anreol

A mod allows enemies to be spawned with items for a more difficult experience! This mod differs from the Artifact of Evolution (give all monsters the same items every stage artifact) as it scales harder and it makes every enemy have different items. Can be played with the Artifact of Evolution for guaranteed items on every monster.

Now rewritten from the ground up!

3.0.0 has a new config file, make sure to delete the old one. Full control over item tiers! Check config!

Want the enemies to inherit player items? Possible with the InheritItems setting!

By default, enemies will only start spawning with items after the 5th stage (first loop).

Please contact Anreol#8231 on Discord for any issues or interests!

Basil#7379 will probably be back when the the first DLC, Survivors of the Void, comes out.

FAQ

• Q: I'm having heavy frame drops/lagging with ItemMulitplier set to 5 or greater! How do I fix this?

  • A: You can't really fix this issue. Enemies with more items are more demanding in computer resources. You can only alleviate it by getting better computer parts.

• Q: How does the item drop work for enemies?

  • A: As of 3.0.0, the item drop chance is actually the chance of the enemy being able to drop anything. On death it calculates the chance of dropping an item of its inventory, and that is the item's tier's generation chance multiplied by 5.

• Q: How does InheritItems work?

  • A: It will randomly choose a player to inherit items from. Copied items will not be affected by any of the mod's blacklists, except for the equipment blacklist.

• Q: How do you calculate the item gen cap for item generation?

  • A: As of 3.0.0, if not inheriting from a player, it goes as follows:
    • Selects a random item that isn't blacklisted, is in an available item tier, based off the item tier's generation chance.
    • If the monster has too many items of the same tier, generate a different item.
    • Amount is a random number from 0 to the current stage plus the player's total item count or the player's average item count, depending on the config.
    • Amount is multiplied by ItemMulitplier specified in the config.
    • Amount is limited by the Limiter if its enabled.
      • Amount is set to number of stages cleared if the limiter list had the item's entry with zero.

• Q: I want to see what the enemies have. How can I?

  • A: While it is possible, having a good solution for this (so not using chat or console logs) is rather difficult to come up.

Changelog

v3.0.1

• Nullchecked some things that should've been nullchecked but weren't.
• Fixed an out of range issue.

v3.0.0

• Refactored the entire mod (Made by Anreol#8231, if you have any issues, contact him!)

  • Performance should've been increased as it is no longer querying some values over and over again.

  • Blacklists now get applied to a different list at bootup, so it will no longer waste item rolls on something that it will later remove.

    • If you accidently blacklist something like BoostHP or Ghost, it should not be removed from elite enemies. This applies to any other item added by things other than this mod.
    • Item generation now has a cap on failed generated attempts as a failsafe to don't freeze the game in case the user has a very restrictive config.
    • Enemies should now roll the items that the user wants, as rolls aren't wasted on things that get later removed.
    • No more Heretics!

  • Hardcoded lists are gone.

    • They are now the default values of the blacklists in the config file.

  • Config file has been redone, you'll have to delete your old one.

  • Config file no longer accepts item indexes or equipment indexes as a valid entry in blacklists.

  • Added a config for elite equipment to get banned from generating by default, no need for the user to add them themselves.
