Watcher QOL
A bunch of quality of life stuff for Watcher. Includes a fix for Score Galore and improvements/config for plenty of Watcher creatures and features.
⚠️WARNING! The config mentions features of Watcher which are spoilers, please be aware incase you do not wish to be spoiled! Ripple and Rot tabs contain heavy spoilers!⚠️
Includes options for: (these need to be toggled in the mod’s config screen)
- The abilities of Basilisk and Blizzard lizards (poisoning and mushroom effect of basilisks, and the laser and force-field of blizzard lizards) can’t affect you under certain conditions. There is an option for both blizzards and basilisks for: taming, passively (regardless of tamed or not, just disables their abilities), and in shelters.
- Blizzard lizards can be made more protective, pretty much just makes them try harder to save you and will attempt to laser a predator that has grabbed you (and will effectively go rabid if you die, because why not)
- Built in patched Score Galore (MAKE SURE TO DISABLE THE ORIGINAL SCORE GALORE) that fixes the crash it’d cause when sheltering, as well as allows you to see your kill statistics instead of just crashing.
- Passive poison healing
- A tweak to make barnacles panic after they stun you (Panic depends on what you’re holding, with items that are more dangerous causing more panic, and the corpse of another barnacle making them panic the most)
- Make barnacles pop firebugs, causing rampage. This is mostly just something for fun
- Make ripple tears less visible or completely disable them visually
- Change the duration that mud remains on you, up to 10x as long
- Change the duration that Indigo lizard spit remains on you, up to 10x as long
- Locust spray (Locusts will no longer target you)
- Leaches drain poison from you passively, with larger leeches being most effective
- (LATEGAME SPOILER) Tentacles release you when entering ripplespace. Usually, despite tentacles of rot lizards not following you into ripplespace, they won’t release you, causing ‘ghost’ tentacles which continue holding you despite not even being visible and their respective lizard not being able to be interacted with
- Make it more clear in the sleep screen’s Warp Map which regions can and can’t be infected. Under the region name, it tells which reasons are infectable. Infectable regions are labeled as either ‘Healthy’ or ‘Corrupted’ depending on if they have been infected and also your game progress, with these titles changing depending on what progress you’ve made.
- Disable any of the 4 types of Ripplespawn
- Disable the trail that’s made when you’re at a high enough ripple level
- Change the spawnrate of Ripple Amoebae and ripplespawn in general
- Spawn a karmaflower on death
- Frogs will slowly die in regions they aren’t native to
- Scare barnacles by throwing a flashbang
- Stun frogs by throwing a flashbang
- Kill locusts by throwing a flashbang
- Jump + Special for levitation (at high enough ripple level)
