📋 About This Mod

More durable cart

The oxcart now takes less damage from attacks (half damage by default) and no damage from pawn attacks. Some attacks that would previously instantly break the cart will no longer do that. Battahl's ropeway carts are also affected by this change.

Stronger guards and driver

The ox, guards and driver take half damage by default, and the guards deal 25% more damage. They're also immune to debilitations.

Cart controls

While sitting in the oxcart with the "Doze off" option active, you can press X and B (or their keyboard and mouse equivalents) to make the cart speed up or slow down. These buttons work as you'd expect, displaying the text in the UI and lighting up when pressed. By default, the dash lasts 10 seconds. The ox will not dash if it's currently being staggered. The cinematic oxcart camera cannot keep up with the cart if you speed up, so it's disabled by default.

Important: please wait until the driver has sat before dashing, or you will run into walls in the city. Once the driver gets control of the ox, it will follow its path properly even during the dashes. Also note that you'll leave the guards behind if you constantly dash.

INSTALLATION

Install as usual with Fluffy Mod Manager.

CONFIGURATION

You can open the script and change all the options at the start, such as the damage multipliers for the guards and the cart, whether to make them immune to debilitations, etc.
