Improved Respec

You can now modify premade NPC's attributes on respec. All usual limits on points apply - you can't cheat with it.

Install instructions:

• []If you don't have it already, grab Patchwork Launcher and follow User's guide to set it up.

  []Put AppInfo.dll from the mod next to the launcher executable (if it's already there - this happens if you use other mods - you can skip this).

  []In the launcher UI, select Active Mods -> Add -> select path to the mod DLL.

  Technically, this mod does two things:

  • []For premade NPCs only, adds attribute customization step when levelling up to level 2. This means that you can customize attributes either when initially picking up a companion, or immediately after respec.

    []Removes the "override attributes from prefab" logic (it's the same thing that prevents changing attributes via save game editing).

    This solution has some implications:

    • []You won't be able to customize attributes for level 1 companions - this is a very minor thing, it essentially only matters during prologue.

      []You won't be able to customize level 1 abilities - the tricky thing to implement here are "special" things like Sagani's custom fox pet.

      []If you ever start a game without mod, on load customized attributes will be reverted, since "override from prefab" logic would be restored.

    • There is a UI artifact on level-up to level 2 for NPCs - attributes and increased skills overlap. This is a very minor issue.
