📋 About This Mod

API for adding custom temporary visual effects for characters.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

R2API_TempVisualEffect is a submodule for R2API that lets mod creators add custom temporary visual effects to characters, triggered by custom conditions. It's a library mod, so it's for developers, not end-users. With 1.6M downloads and recent updates, it's a well-maintained tool for the Risk of Rain 2 modding community.

✨ Key Features

Adds temporary visual effects to characters via the AddTemporaryVisualEffect method.
Effects appear when a specified condition (EffectCondition delegate) returns true.
Supports scaling effects to the character's best fit radius or spawning at a specific ChildLocator entry.
Includes an overload that accepts an EffectRadius delegate for custom effect radii.
Requires the prefab to have the TemporaryVisualEffect component.
Split from the main R2API.dll into its own submodule for better modularity.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge adoption with 1.6M downloads, showing it's a trusted library in the community.
  • Actively maintained with recent updates for SOTS DLC2 compatibility.
  • Provides flexible API for modders to create condition-based visual effects.

⚠️ Cons

  • Not for end-users; requires modding knowledge to utilize effectively.
  • Only 11 endorsements, which is low relative to downloads, possibly due to its niche developer-focused nature.
  • Dependency on R2API.Core and R2API.ContentManagement may complicate setup for some modders.
🎯 Is This For You?
This is for Risk of Rain 2 mod developers who want to add custom visual effects to characters based on gameplay conditions. If you're a player just looking for gameplay mods, this isn't for you. But if you're creating mods and need a robust way to trigger visual feedback, this library is a solid choice.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Ensure your prefab has the TemporaryVisualEffect component attached, or the effect won't work.
  • Use the EffectCondition delegate to control exactly when the effect appears, like when a buff is active or health is low.
  • If you want the effect to scale with the character, use the best fit radius option; otherwise, specify a custom radius via the EffectRadius overload.
