Issues/TODO

  • A few TkSat items have absent or incomplete ItemDisplayRules.
  • Non-Survivor vanilla characters have no display rules for TkSat items.
• Most items need some effects & model polish in general.
  • Chestplate texture has unintentional specularity in some areas.
  • Broken drones are missing smoke/sparks effects.
  • Cardboard Box alternate icon has not been updated to vanilla style like other icons as of v2.2.3.
• Some class-specific item behaviors on Go-Faster Stripes are missing or placeholders.
• See the GitHub repo for more!

Changelog

The 5 latest updates are listed below. For a full changelog, see: https://github.com/ThinkInvis/RoR2-TinkersSatchel/blob/master/changelog.md

(🌧︎: Involves an accepted GitHub Pull Request or other significant assistance from the community. Thanks for your help!)

5.2.5

• Fixed corruption in Item Drone interactable prefab causing it to not display its pickup select menu on interact.
• Made RC Controller and Nautilus Protocol valid drone lists configurable.

5.2.4

• Balance pass:
  • Commando: Fusion Grenade:
    • Magnetism range increased 6 m > 8 m.
    • Magnetism angular strength increased 720 deg/s > 1080 deg/s.
  • Swordbreaker:
    • No longer fires additional projectiles per stack.
    • Now deals additional damage per stack, equal to first stack damage (stacks linearly).
    • Projectile damage decreased 40% > 25%.
    • Projectile explosion damage falloff removed.
    • Projectile explosion radius increased 4 m > 6 m.
  • Fudge Dice:
    • Buff is no longer put on cooldown by failed rolls, only by successes which wouldn't have happened without the buff.
    • Buff now performs a non-luck reroll which stacks with the previous effect.
    • Decreased luck amount +9 > +2 (+3 including the non-luck reroll).
    • These changes are intended to make the item more capable of affecting other procs than the first triggered in quick succession.
• Fixed ItemDisplayRules causing console errors and failure to display in inventory on obtaining items.
• Resolved NullReferenceExceptions (definitely for real this time! probably!), now thought to be caused by attempting to use server-only RNG on client. Affects the following items:
  • Sturdy Mug, Pinball Wizard: extra projectile spawns/retargets are no longer accurately predicted by client and may appear laggy at first.
  • Unstable Klein Bottle: Float debuff is now seeded based on run fixed time instead of an RNG.
  • Scavenger's Rucksack, Celestial Gambit, Obsidian Brooch: probably wasn't causing issues, but added serverside-only checks just in case.
• Fixed an issue causing console warning spam and potential audio issues with Commando: Fusion Grenade.
• Fixed missing projectile ghosts for Engineer: Smart Flak.
• Added a custom icon for Float debuff.
• Added an indicator buff for Fudge Dice.
• Fudge Dice now plays luck vfx/sfx.

5.2.3

• Improved null safety of Swordbreaker; potentially fixes an issue preventing Void Chests from being opened.
• Added an unlock achievement to the following items:
  • Command Terminal: Get Some! (Get 20 direct Primary kills in a row without using another skill.)
  • Negative Feedback Loop: Encased (Reach maximum barrier.)

5.2.2

• Further attempts to improve null safety of Ferrofluid.

5.2.1

• Balance pass:
  • Swordbreaker:
    • Removed reflected damage (25% to 0%, config option removed).
    • Reduced per-projectile base damage from 50% to 40%.
    • I found out the hard way that enemies getting this item is a quick run-killer, and it was also overtuned compared to similar vanilla items.
  • Lodestone:
    • Reduced base damage from 400% to 200%.
    • This was also kind of a lot compared to e.g. Disposable Missile Launcher.
• Attempted to improve null safety of Ferrofluid, Unstable Klein Bottle, and Sturdy Mug.
• Fixed missing icon texture for Float debuff.
• Fixed potential integer overflow in Stamina Bar charge count (will now cap at 255).
