Tinker's Satchel

SUPPORT DISCLAIMER

Use of a mod manager is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED.

Seriously, use a mod manager.

If the versions of Tinker's Satchel or TILER2 (or possibly any other mods) are different between your game and other players' in multiplayer, things WILL break. If TILER2 is causing kicks for "unspecified reason", it's likely due to a mod version mismatch. Ensure that all players in a server, including the host and/or dedicated server, are using the same mod versions before reporting a bug.

While reporting a bug, make sure to post a console log (path/to/RoR2/BepInEx/LogOutput.log) from a run of the game where the bug happened; this often provides important information about why the bug is happening. If the bug is multiplayer-only, please try to include logs from both server and client.

  • Broken drones are missing smoke/sparks effects.
• Some class-specific item behaviors on Go-Faster Stripes are missing or placeholders.

• See the GitHub repo for more!

Changelog

The 5 latest updates are listed below. For a full changelog, see: https://github.com/ThinkInvis/RoR2-TinkersSatchel/blob/master/changelog.md

1.13.1

• Balance pass.
  • RC Controller: buffed default attack speed bonus (25% → 40%).
  • Engineer: Speed Dispenser:
    • Now provides a 25% jump height bonus.
    • Now holds 4 charges (up from 3).
    • Charges now recharge in 7.5 seconds (up from 10).
  • Engineer: Chaff:
    • Now deals 4x75% damage with 0.5 proc coefficient (was 1x200% damage with 1 proc coefficient).
    • Will cleanse projectiles and taunt enemies with every hit, making it slightly easier to time.
• Engineer: Chaff: Renamed to Decoy Chaff for clarity.
• Engineer: Speed Dispenser fixes:
  • Fixed not being set to player team.
  • Now has its own deployable slot so mods that tweak the max shield count won't affect it.

1.13.0 The Skillful Update, Part Engineer

• ADDED SKILL VARIANTS:
  • Engineer: Smart Flak, Chaff, Speed Dispenser!
• Bulwark Drone now uses the same Taunt debuff added by Chaff (will now apply a damage debuff vs non-Taunters and allow attacking any Taunter).
• Updated an older language token name format on Silver Compass (all instances of "TINKSATCH" → "TKSAT").
• Fixed Percussive Maintenance not working if used by multiplayer clients.
• Fixed some Mostly-Tame Mimic NREs during object creation/destruction.
• Due to limitations on the length of Thunderstore readme pages, long descriptions and notes have been cut from this page's content summary. Added a link to a separate full version, similarly to the changelog link.

1.12.3

• Fixed Unstable Klein Bottle pull-mode force being much higher than intended.
• Fixed missing style tags in Unstable Klein Bottle description.

1.12.2

• Balance pass.
  • Macho Moustache:
    • Now has a radius of 100 m (was 10 m).
    • Now provides a damage bonus of 1% per enemy per stack (was 5%).
    • Now only works on enemies in combat (used a skill recently) or danger (was hurt recently).
    • Now counts elites and champions/bosses as multiple enemies (default +2/+4).
    • Renamed existing config options to force changes, as this is effectively a major rework to further differentiate the item from Focus Crystal.
  • Negative Feedback Loop:
    • No longer triggers on-hurt items.
    • No longer applies to fall damage.
    • Now procs its DoT once per frame (effectively continuously) by default. This config was not forced to update; default 0.2s will still be in place for already-installed copies of the mod.
  • Percussive Maintenance:
    • Now also heals you when you heal an ally (for 25% the amount by default).
  • Unstable Klein Bottle:
    • Now pulls enemies instead of pushing if procced by a melee survivor. List of melee survivors is configurable (by body name).
  • RC Controller:
    • Nerfed first-stack fire rate to match per-extra-stack rate (100% --> 25%).
• Percussive Maintenance now passes through proc chain masks instead of using an empty one.
• Phrasing tweak on Defibrillator description.
• Fixed Pinball Wizard unintentionally affecting deployables and Rex's Special skill. Now has a configurable projectile name blacklist.

1.12.1

• Balance pass.
  • Hydroponic Cell now adds base damage instead of direct damage.
  • Hydroponic Cell now has a minimum hit threshold similar to the elemental bands (defaults to the same amount, 400%).
  • Unstable Klein Bottle now deals damage (50% by default).
  • Allowed Pixie Tube to work on some previously-blacklisted skills (MUL-T and Railgunner mode switches) now that an ICD is in place.
  • Reduced Bulwark Drone shield (100 --> 60) and armor (50 --> 20). Testing found it to be both too evasive and too tanky at once.
• Hydroponic Cell informational buffs are now percentages of max charge (was previously integer times max health / damage stat).
• Hydroponic Cell is now implemented as a separate instance of damage due to technical limitations on the minimum hit threshold.
• Improved AI on Item Drone and Equipment Drone. Slightly. They're still drones.
• Item Drone and Equipment Drone now use continuous collision detection (much lower chance of flying through walls).
