Atmospheric Derelicts
Sound-related modifications and difficulty changes to wrecks.
Requires server-side lua (client-side if in singleplayer). Includes optional client-side features.
A non-comprehensive list of what this mod does:
- Adds two similar items that have a chance to spawn inside wrecked nav terminals; use a crowbar to open it. Can be sold or deconstructed for materials.
- Wrecked nav terminals have a chance to start the round with their sonar turned on; this adds purely atmospheric sounds, but could potentially let you know you are near a wreck.
- Thalami can interfere with your radio in two ways:
- Your radio chat range will severely decrease the closer you are to one, and
- Your headset will start playing annoying (but not deafeningly loud) sounds while you are wearing it.
- Thalami will emit ballast flora spores and acid clouds when killed.
- If you have clientside lua installed, you will be able to see them on the sonar display.
- Flesh spikes that go through your ballasts have a chance of infecting the pumps.
- (Opinionated) Better wrecked turret lights. The default settings made them as bright as regular turrets.
Overrides the following (important) items:
- navterminalwrecked (sounds and items)
- shuttlenavterminalwrecked (sounds and items)
- thalamusbrain1 (custom behaviour and lua)
Less important items:
- railgunwrecked (better default lighting)
- coilgunwrecked (better default lighting)
- fleshspike1 (ballast flora infection chance)
- terminalcell (replaced structure damage on death with acidburn and emp)
Mod Compatibility
For the full experience, this mod must be placed above mods that override the above items, such as:
- Real Sonar: needs to include overrides for wrecked terminals so they do not break(?). This mod is fully compatible with Real Sonar, but you still need to place this above it.
- New wrecks for Barotrauma: includes overrides to thalamus items to increase difficulty. This mod overrides thalamusbrain1 and fleshspike1 to also adjust difficulty but in a different way.
disclaimer: the mod’s name might give false impressions of what it actually does.
