Player Gene System (Stable)
"Recent advancements in North Tyris have finally unlocked the secrets of genetic modification for adventurers like you.
The gene machine, once a tool for enhancing allies, is now at your command."
This mod overhauls the gene system, allowing you to apply genetic traits to yourself instantly to reshape your very being.
But be warned — tampering with your own DNA is not without consequence.
A powerful "Gene Shock" will wrack your body, and you must manage its effects to survive.
Base Game: Elin Stable
- YK Framework – for Gene Removal menu
- CWL – registers the custom "Gene Shock" condition
- Stable CWL (for Stable Elin): https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3544010094
- Player-Accessible Gene Machines: Interact with gene machines and select yourself as the target.
- Instant Application: Genes apply immediately — no more lengthy sleep cycles.
- Reworked Costs: Feat costs and max gene slots are fully configurable (default 0.5 FP cost).
- Gene Compatibility: Learn spells and gain body parts from genes.
- Gene Shock System: Applying a gene induces temporary debuff "Gene Shock" that lowers all stats, preventing further modification until it fades.
- Gradual Recovery: Gene Shock weakens over time and can be reduced by sleeping or fully cured by a Healer.
- Gene Removal UI: Use inferior genes to earn “Removal Tokens,” then access a new menu via the middle-click context menu.
- UI Transparency: Tooltips show player-specific costs and preview Gene Shock strength and duration.
The intensity of Gene Shock is calculated from the source gene’s properties:
Find a gene machine and select your character to open the player interface.
Apply genes using feat points and see results instantly.
Manage Gene Shock by visiting a Healer (full cure), sleeping (gradual recovery), or waiting for it to fade.
Use inferior genes to gain Removal Tokens, then right-click yourself on the map to open the removal menu.
- Gene Insertion Exhaustion – Controlled by ApplyExhaustionOnInsert; happens when you apply a gene.
- Gene Removal Exhaustion – Controlled by ExhaustionOnShockedRemoval; happens when removing a gene during Gene Shock.
Both share the same formula, triggered differently:
