GK2 Codex

The wiki, inside the game. Press F4.

• Items: how anything is made, where, from what, what it's used for, and which raw materials it takes in the end. Where to sell it.
• Buildings: what they cost and what they make.
• Zombies: one table with every zombie, what it's doing and what's wrong (no tool, not enough talent, stuck). Plus "who fits" for any zombie recipe.
• Alchemy: the formulas and mixes you've discovered.
• Graveyard: your level and the next goal, every grave and what holds it back, a map, and what to build next.
• Vendors: what each vendor you've met buys and sells, at what price, their likes this week, and what to sell to whom.

Lost a zombie? Locate points you to it with the game's own pointer. Open any item's card from the inventory ("Codex" in the right-click menu, or hover it and press G).

Everything is clickable and searchable. No spoilers: only what your save has unlocked ("Show all" is optional). The game pauses while the codex is open. 11 languages, gamepad supported.

Settings

In the Mods menu (with GK2 Mod Framework), in ConfigurationManager, or in BepInEx/config/gk2.codex.cfg: hotkey, gamepad binding, tabs, text and window size, pause.

Manual install

Put GK2Codex.dll into BepInEx/plugins/GK2Codex/. Needs BepInEx 5.4.23.x (x64).

Locate was inspired by OrionAF's Dude where's my zombie. Thank you, OrionAF!

Changelog

0.10.21

• Fixed: with another mod that makes the game create a second input handler (Kebo Mod's "Start work once" option), the controller did nothing in the codex after opening it. Thanks Echelon for tracking it down!

0.10.20

• Changed: controller navigation works the same in every tab: the d-pad or stick moves to the nearest thing in that direction (list, the row of views and filters, the card, table rows). A presses, B steps back, LB/RB switch tabs.
• Changed: the controller focus is a bright frame you can actually see.
• Fixed: scrolling to the focused row in long lists (Herm, What to sell) left it half hidden under the top edge.
• Fixed: the level bar of the Graveyard and the Church didn't line up with the threshold numbers under it (level 60 showed near 200).

0.10.19

• Added: study info on item cards: studied or not, the cost, and (once studied) the tech points it gave. Items list filters (Not studied, Studied, I have it, Can be made, Sold by, Bought by, item types) and a Study view.
• Added: a Chests tab: every storage you've seen and what's in it, with search and Locate.
• Added: Alchemy filters: Can mix now, by rune, by station.
• Added: "You have N" on item cards: your backpack and every storage that holds it.
• Added: a + next to town orders (Vendors tab) adds them to Shopping List (when installed).
• Fixed: Locate now works for a zombie lying on the ground.
• Changed: right click steps a filter button back.

0.10.16

• Fixed: vendor prices were far too high in the Vendors tab ("What to sell", the vendor cards) and in an item's "Where to sell". They now match the trade window. "What to sell" counts a stack the way the game does, each sale lowering the price, and shows the total in red when the vendor can't pay for the whole stack today.
• Added: translations from files. Localization/en.json next to the DLL is the template: copy it to .json (e.g. uk.json, it.json) and translate. A file also overrides the built-in texts; the new Language setting picks a language the game doesn't have.
