How do we feel about allowin' a mod to be used for official Any% runs? Specifically askin' about Reset Skip - a little mod I wrote that allows for 2 things:
-
Instead of startin' the game causin' the cutscene to play and needin' to skip the tutorial and immediately retire, it immediately puts you into the heir selection screen
- I feel like this is the possibly more controversial change, as it saves a tiny bit of time (up to 6 seconds)
-
It gives you infinite heir rerolls on the first heir selection.
- This heavily reduces the tedium of resettin' the game to just reroll heirs again and again
https://hst.sh/ewiduneluk.csharp > The whole mods source code The mod was written for RL2.ModLoader - an open source RL2 specific mod loader. The mod itself will also be released as open source, so there will be full transparency.
Reset Skip currently has 2 versions:
- 1.1 - Only puts you straight into the heir selection screen
- 2.0 - Contains both functionalities
Synopisis of the discussion between me and Vilks on the CDG Discord server so far: Functionality number 1 is safe for use, and there is no problem with it. Functionality number 2 is not safe for use as of now.
We are somewhat altering the game process. Everyone will just reroll until they find the best spell with best traits with best relics
The Reset Skip mod has been updated to version 2.1 which rerolls the games seed with every reroll on the first heir selection screen appearin' after skippin' the cutscene and tutorial, makin' the resuilts achieved with the use of the mod achieveable in vanilla.
Review of version 2.1 eligibility for speedrunnin' by Vilks is pendin'.
Reset Skip has been split into 2 mods.
- Infinte First Heir Reroll allows you to reroll the first set of heirs indefinietly. The moment the player exits the Citadel Agartha spawn room they loose access to the infinite reroll.
- Tutorial Skip puts you straight into the heir selection screen.
