Changelog

0.1.19

• Fixed Thunderstore/r2modman package layout: moved the plugin DLL and bundled SideLoader pack under plugins/ so Outward installs them into BepInEx/plugins correctly.
• Normalized ZIP paths to forward slashes and removed BOM from the SideLoader manifest.txt.

0.1.18

• Replaced Mana Stone with Crystal Powder in crafting recipes so the ingredients can be placed in the Survival crafting menu. Sorry again :)

0.1.17

• Cleans up Runic Chakram visuals on equipment unequip and left-hand equipment changes so the chakram does not remain attached to the hand after being moved back to inventory.

0.1.16

• Hides runic weapon root renderers when the item is only stored in inventory, preventing newly added weapons from appearing under the player.
• Restores those renderers when the item is equipped or dropped in the world.

0.1.15

• Adds custom inventory icons for Runic Chakram and Runic Knuckles.
• Keeps item icon files uniquely named so r2modman continues to use the package icon for the mod entry.
• Confirms Runic Knuckles removes the original Smoke Knuckles effects.

0.1.14

• Adds Runic Chakram, crafted from Chakram, two Crystal Powder, and Hackmanite.
• Adds Runic Knuckles, crafted from Iron Knuckles, two Crystal Powder, and Hackmanite.

0.1.13

0.1.12

• Adds in-game screenshots for every current Runic Arsenal weapon to the mod page.

0.1.11

• Preloads the exact vanilla Runic Blade material from the original prefab so runic weapons do not need the player to summon Runic Blade first.
• Removes the experimental Arsenal-only material speed and texture tiling overrides, restoring the Runic Dagger material behavior.

0.1.6

• Lowers the test runic material scale to 0.5 on all runic weapons.

0.1.5

• Lowers the test runic material scale to 1.0 on all runic weapons to check whether smaller scale values make the texture pattern less stretched.

0.1.4

• Reduces runic weapon weight to roughly half of the base weapon weight, rounded down, with a minimum of 1.0.
• Adds independent runic material scale tuning per weapon so visual adjustments can be tested without changing every weapon at once.
