CardCraft

CardCraft adds an optional crafting phase after the normal card-pick phase in ROUNDS.

Features

• Runs after normal and additional Pick phases using UnboundLib's final PickEnd hook.
• Shows up to 5 craftable recipes, ranked by Score and selected from the top 10.
• Validates the recipe again immediately before crafting.
• Host-authoritative multiplayer crafting using a stable recipe key.
• Ingredients are removed through the card utility API so card effects are removed correctly.
• Recipe browser (F2) with mod filter and readiness groups.
• Static embedded recipe database for fast startup.
• Lightweight runtime supplement for cards missing from the embedded database.
• Classes Manager Reborn integration is optional. If CMR is installed, CardCraft respects its class tree and Entry rules; without CMR, CardCraft continues to work normally.
• Curses and obvious junk/test cards are excluded.
• Literal + characters in card names are escaped in the recipe database, so names such as Gemini+ are parsed correctly.

Required dependency

• UnboundLib 3.2.14 or compatible newer release.

Optional integrations

• Classes Manager Reborn
• ModdingUtils
• WillsWackyManagers
• Pick N Cards / PickPhaseImprovements / MorePicksPatch / Rounds With Friends / Rounds With Bots

CardCraft does not require these optional mods.

Configuration

CardCraft creates its configuration under BepInEx/config/CardCraft.cfg and editable database overrides under BepInEx/config/CardCraft/.

The recipe browser is opened with F2 by default.

Source / development

The source archive contains the local reference assemblies under libs/ and can be built with:

dotnet build CardCraft.csproj -c Release

The resulting DLL is bin/Release/netstandard2.0/CardCraft.dll.

CardCraft Changelog

1.0.516 — Thunderstore release

• Expanded the embedded static recipe database to 10,000 recipes.
• Prioritized CardCraft-exclusive results while building the static recipe pool.
• Added two deterministic recipe opportunities per eligible result where recipe guards allow them, then filled the remaining database with additional valid recipes.
• Removed recipe entries containing (Clone).
• Disabled runtime/dynamic recipe synthesis for the release build.
• Reduced hot-path informational logging compared with diagnostic transaction builds.
• Kept CardCraft on PickStart, before the normal card-pick phase.
• Kept host-authoritative multiplayer validation and transaction handling.
• Kept the per-player craft flow so a player without a craftable recipe does not block other players' normal Pick phase.
• Updated Thunderstore requirements to explicitly declare BepInExPack ROUNDS, MMHook, and UnboundLib.

1.0.5.14

• Remote accepted Craft decisions wait for an explicit host transaction result before releasing that player's local PickStart flow.
