ThreeChoiceChests

By Rin.

备注：个人研究用，不是正式的 Mod。我觉得这样会让游戏更有策略性。

Personal research/experiment. This is not intended as a polished formal mod release; I made it because I think this kind of choice makes runs more strategic.

ThreeChoiceChests changes supported Risk of Rain 2 containers so that opening them presents three choices instead of immediately dropping a single reward.

What it changes

Supported interactables:

• Small Chest
• Invisible Chest
• Large Chest
• Legendary Chest
• Damage Chest
• Healing Chest
• Utility Chest
• Large Damage Chest
• Large Healing Chest
• Large Utility Chest
• Equipment Barrel

The mod preserves the chest's original reward tier. Category chests keep their original Damage / Healing / Utility restriction, and Equipment Barrels choose from equipment.

The chest's original rolled reward remains one of the three candidates, with the other candidates drawn from the appropriate current-run pool.

If several supported chests are opened before earlier choices are finished, their rewards are queued and the choice screens are shown one at a time instead of losing rewards or overlapping prompts.

Pending choice protection (1.0.1)

While a chest reward awaits selection, the choosing player's scoreboard cannot be opened. A temporary UI dismissal does not consume the reward or advance the queue. If the prompt is interrupted, the same picker and candidates are restored after the pause menu closes, without another roll.

The choice finishes only when the game accepts a valid candidate selection.

Intentionally unchanged

These special containers keep their vanilla behavior:

• Lunar Pods
• Void Cradles
• Free Chests
• Command Chests
• Adaptive Chests

Installation

Install with r2modman / Thunderstore Mod Manager.

For manual installation, place ThreeChoiceChests.dll in a folder under BepInEx/plugins/.

Compatibility

Single-player is the primary target. Multiplayer behavior has not yet been fully validated.

Requirements

• BepInExPack
• HookGenPatcher
