UpgradeQueue

Level-up upgrade popups no longer interrupt play. Each level-up goes into a queue, and you pick your upgrades whenever it suits you.

Choices, odds and results are the game's own: the three options are rolled with the normal draft when you open a queued upgrade.

How to use

  • A counter in the corner of the HUD shows how many upgrades are waiting, e.g. Upgrades: 3 [U]. It gives a gentle sonar ping when a new level-up is queued, and keeps a steady, fainter pulse going while upgrades are waiting.
  • Press U to open your queued upgrades and pick as usual. After each pick the next one opens, until the queue is empty. Queued picks have no timer.
  • Press U again before picking to close the screen. That upgrade and the rest stay queued.
  • With the inventory open, the counter becomes an Open upgrade button you can click.
  • Queued upgrades last for the current run. They are cleared when the run ends. If you crash or disconnect in multiplayer, they come back when you rejoin the same run.

Multiplayer

Queued picks never hold up other players: your level-up counts as handled right away, and the game keeps running while you pick later. In single player the game pauses while the upgrade screen is open (configurable).

Every player who wants queueing needs the mod. Players without it get the normal popups.
