Cake mod EP4 GOLD: bugfixes + cheats mod
What this is: a mod that fixes some things, does some QOL changes, and allows normal or cheated gameplay.
Why this exists: It's as good an excuse as any to practice some python
WARNINGS AND DISCLAIMERS:
1) because I had to pretty much entirely rewrite the game logic (less ren'py nonsense, more good honest python), SAVE GAMES FROM THIS WILL NOT BE COMPATIBLE AT ALL WITH VANILLA SAVES. Trying to load vanilla saves with this mod, or modded saves with the vanilla game, will imediatly and obviously fail.
2) I'm really enjoying this game, and plan to update this mod for as long as the dev continues updating the game. However, I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE MY MIND, GET BORED AND ABANDON THIS PROJECT AT ANY TIME. I'm making this for my own amusement, and yall are welcome to what I make, but we don't owe each other anything.
3) I MAKE NO PROMISSES ABOUT FUTURE SAVE COMPATIBILITY: I like to tinker, and if something I change will break save files I'll do it anyways. So future versions of this mod will probably be incompatible with saves from previous versions. At most you'll have to hold the skip button for a few minutes to get back to where you were.
4) I TAKE MY TIME WITH THINGS. After a new update is released, it may take me some time to update this mod. I recommend you keep some vanilla saves around so you can play as soon as the next versions drop.
With that out of the way, let's explain what this is about:
When you start a new game, you will be asked how you want to play the game. The choices are the following:
1) Normal: basically the same as the vanilla game, with just some tweaks and bugfixes (open spoilers for details). I have not exaustively tested this mode, (too many combinations I guess), so if you find some error let me know.
2) Unlock all perks: all the changes above, plus you will unlock all perks at the start of the game - even the mutually exclusive ones - as soon as you would normally be able to buy your first perks. Warning: your skill points will go far into the negatives, so you will not be able to buy HW cards.
3) Unlock all perks and cards: All of the above, but you will also get all the HW cards at the start. Will also put the cards I like to use in the default deck. Your skill points will go even deeper into the negatives, but that doesn't matter because you'll have everything skill point can buy.
4) Cake mode: for those who want to have their cake and eat it too. (open spoilers for details)
5) Cake mode - Extreme: same as cake mode, but with even more ridiculous changes (open spoilers for details)
As you can see, this last mode is just silly, and will quickly result in unnecessarily large amounts of love points. Big number go up.
-HOW TO INSTALL:
extract the files to the "game" folder
- IF THE DEV SEES THIS, loving the game so far. If you want to put any or all of these changes into the official game, by all means feel free. And if you don't want to put any of that into the game, by all means, feel free to do that as well.
