Warden.utils connection is unstable

A rebel has been located in the higher layers of the Complex. Assist the Warden in stabilizing the Complex's failing systems, establishing communications with the individual, and extracting valuable data.

But something won't go according to plan...

Better-Vanilla type, Intermediate to High difficulty levels (B - E difficulty, maybe F later if I'm feeling evil...) - Wiki for new enemies included!

Unique level concepts with unique gimmicks all around that I haven't seen much of, if any, executed.

Saying this even though I don't play many modern rundowns :)

There is a story to follow in the rundown. More related to the current level you play, but I have put in a lot of effort in terms of messages mid-play to present it. If you miss reading them, it's just going to be more difficult for you to understand what's happening :)

Ok, cool, what's new that you offer compared to what is in Vanilla?

• Custom gear - firearms, tools, and melee weapons
• Custom objective ideas (no, not new programmed objectives, we're speaking unique formats mixed with gimmicks)
• Custom enemies (12 new enemies as of writing this description, 11.2025)
• Slight lack of vagueness as to what is happening around you or what will happen
• Load of Quality of Life mods that make these levels bearable; however, there are no mods that fix useful exploits, notably - shooting enemies through a closing door and thus staying in stealth

Now, I'm not saying other rundowns don't have this, of course, this is just a very honest description of what we have goin' over here without sugarcoating anything

What is banned from use in the rundown? (aka don't use it or it won't be fun anymore)

Any mods that upgrade your movement, add additional gear to choose from in levels, or increase your stats - you are busted enough for each level, and if not - please complain about it in the feedback on the Discord.

Other than that, feel free to remove the rundown files and keep the rest of the preconfigured plugins as a modpack for a better experience in other rundowns. All of this is if you know how to do that.

Special thanks to

Patch Notes:

1.6.2

• Severed B!
  • Shelved until further notice
    • Why? - Legacy.dll is an old bear that I shouldn't have tried recruiting as a circus animal
      • Without metaphors dude. - Legacy.dll does some things that break previous levels which is why it took me so long to realize that this caused some issues
• Other
  • Removed a lot of useless DLL files and instead added dependencies (all related to Legacy.dll)
    • Also now removing DLLs but I'm keeping it's dependencies for future use, maybe... maybe...

    • List of playtesting mentions is getting pretty long, lol

1.1.0

• Protocol Severed
  • Added more weapons choices to the C0+ part of that rundown (those who know)
• Severed D0
  • Released
• Extended B2
  • Nerfed Scattershot a bit
  • Fixed a few text issues
• Breached C1
  • Increased time for verify on last wave
• Weapons
  • ALL Shotguns & AT Heavy Autocannon (not counting Scattergun and Minimum Shotgun)
    • Precision multiplier -> 0.2
    • Tumor damage bonus overridden -> 2.0~3.0
    • Armor pierce: 0% -> 35% (does not apply to AT Heavy AutoCannon)
      • Result: better at killing nightmare strikers (unfortunate); not oppressive against anything with a front weakpoint; stays just as effective VS Harbingers; hopefully they aint garbage due to this change, meanwhile tumor damage bonus makes them be just as effective as when fighting a normal tank before this change (except for Pump, it's 10% lower; just too good)
  • ALL Main SMGs (except for HEL AutoPistol and Heavy SMG)
    • Missed shots give back 40%~50% ammo back to reserve
      • Reasoning: SMGs are balanced with only a slight (+5~13%) upper hand on ammo capacity compared to rifles, plus SMGs fire much faster thus invalidating their ammo advantage soooo... this should suffice in them not running out too quickly? (no, I won't increase max ammo!)
  • Standard SMG, Carbine SMG, PDW, Burst SMG
    • Missed shots reload 20% ammo back to the clip from reserve
      • Reasoning: Experimental change I thought would be useful to add, please leave feedback about these :/
  • DMR, Double Tap Rifle
    • Added a CQC variants (Variant with a sight of lower zoom)
    • Added tumor damage bonus (1.0x -> 1.5x)
  • DMR, Double Tap Rifle, Slug DoubleBarrel, Standard Sniper, Precision Rifle, HEL Rifle
    • Added a slight aim assist that triggers ONLY IN CASE OF A MISS OFF BY 1 degree
