Zeta-Dimensional Shopping System for DoomRL Arsenal [2.9]

what is this fluid assembly from?

[Dr_Cosmobyte]

Still doesn't make sense... assembled weapons only support 2 mods. I don't think that "completing" the recipe will make the game act like nothing happens, but my best bet will be downloading the mod to see by myself.

I don't think i understand. I made this, based on my understanding of how assemblies should have worked in original DoomRL. Or are you asking something else?

This just serves as proof how convoluted the existing system is, and how much unnecessary micromanagement, or, dare i say, fiddling the player needs to do.

Under the Fluid Assembly System, you put mods on weapons. That's it. If the mod configuration matches an assembly recipe, you get that assembly; And the mods that went into the lower-tier assembly count towards the higher tier assembly.

So dumb question, aside from selling gear, how else do you earn credits?

[SergeantDiggs]

Supply crates can be farmed for profit

You get small bonuses from clearing levels — that is, killing monsters, collecting items and finding secrets. Depending on the size and complexity of the level, those can get somewhat big.

I'll have you know, that even without this issue, (which requires the cooperation of the author of the current supply crate code to fix properly), unless you rely on life insurance extensively and die a lot, you're unlikely to run short on money, except for the initial build-up phase.

Oh man, thank you so much for making this mod. I wanted something like this for DRLA so badly and if I knew how to code I would have made it myself.

[fakemai]

Just want to also say thank you for this mod. With the way I set up DRLA and LegenDoom Lite, it gives me something to do with all the random armor enemies drop, and as Technician class, more balance in what to sell vs. what to try making into modpacks, and for other classes, something that lets me do something with weapons I could have converted to modpacks. This is now standard when I play DRLA, along with Universal Gibs, LegenDoom Lite, the DRL monster pack, and the WildWeasel sounds.

okay so you gain credits every time you start a new game, the problem is I myself continuously do that until I get a rare/unique items to spawn in the first map and then I start my journey.

is there a way to rest your progress? (remove all credits and achievements if there are any etc)
EDIT*

just found the options to rest player data, thank you~

also how does Life Insurance work exactly?

Technically, you're not supposed to get credits "when you start a new game". You're supposed to get credited for things you achieved during your previous level killing things, finding secrets, collecting items. Any valuable equipment you happened to carry when you ended your previous game is also auto-sold for you. I suspect that you did some of these things while looking for the unique on the first map. If not, then there might be an issue that i need to look into.

Also, you do know there's a "start with a unique" Arsenal option, right?...

If you are on the brink of death while it's active, you are teleported to the level's start and your life is refilled. Also, your premium goes up, just like in real life; It goes down if you don't end up using it this level. Also, it goes up faster than it goes down. That's about everything you need to know about this mechanic (the rest is tecnicals).

That's the thing you see, just start a new game with adaptive difficulty or anything and you will get credits at the very beginning.

Then start a new game again the same way and you will get them again.

And well I just don't want a unique weapon start, I prefer anything random spawning in the map I can get excited searching for and it can be both Legendary and Demonic to boot. (Also I have set to start with exotic weapons however)

Hmm, I've seen a similar thing before in a mod known as Clusterfuck on Zandronum, it has this Legendary Salvation Sphere which automatically activities if your health goes below 5 and transports you to start of level with full armour and full health, but you see their version can actually even save you from after you have used kill command while your version doesn't, I haven't tried playing a level with it yet and seeing what happens if I die but I did buy it and use kill command to see if it would work like CF but I just gibbed.

Also scrolling 16 pages just to get to page 1 is quite time consuming

You probably have your starting gear set to something other than a pistol start, so you get credited for that.

A fair warning: a nuke would gib you just as good.

The shop pages warp around.

then that means anything besides a pistol will give you credits in the beginning? (For example class specific weapons such as Chaingun for Marine etc)

[Dr_Cosmobyte]

Suggestion: Make blueprints more expensive. The whole idea of finding them as well as their rarity does not contrasts with the low cost, IMO.

Only the uncommon things, likely an assembly, an exotic or a modpack.

Thanks for the hint, the price wasn't reviewed since the time they were much more common and much less valuable. How does 15,000cr sound?
