Pity Unlocks
Tired of only getting chips for mercenaries, classes, or production items that have already been unlocked?
This mod adds a "pity" system which increases the chances of getting a chip that has not been unlocked. The game’s existing random chip spawn is still used for non "pity" rolls.
By default, this mod is configured to guarantee a chip that is not already unlocked after every unlocked chip found.
There are multiple pity algorithms and settings available such as "always locked", a "hard cap", and "increasing chance". See the Configuration section below for more information.
The "Always" mode is similar to functionality that is part of WarStalkeR’s "Fight For Universe: Phase Shift" mod. The ability to change the outcome of spawn rolls is his idea and replicated with permission.
The pity rolls occur at the time of a chip spawn, and the chips are chosen from the list of undiscovered chips at that point in time. Therefore, it is possible for chips from pity rolls to occur multiple times in a mission or from station rewards.
The player must still find chips from pity rolls as normal.
Anytime an undiscovered chip is spawned, the pity roll counter is reset.
- Every roll guarantees an undiscovered chip.
- After X discovered chip rolls in a row. Ex: 5 means that after 5 discovered rolls in a row, a pity roll will occur.
- For every discovered chip roll, adds an X% increased chance of a pity roll. Ex: .1 means that after three discovered rolls, there is a 30% chance of a pity roll.
The configuration file will be created on the first game run and can be found at %AppData%..LocalLowMagnum Scriptum LtdQuasimorph_ModConfigsQM_PityUnlockconfig.json.
