Hi WanderingScholar

Another difficulty component from Tweaks Anthology that might be worth adding:

 

Limit Resting Mechanic [Luke] link.png
EEex required; available for BGEEBG2EEIWDEEEET

This component simply forces the party to rest at most once per 24 in-game hours. It does not prevent scripted resting.

 

I'm not sure if resting at an inn is limited or resets the timer? It's probably best if it didn't. The player should probably be allowed unlimited resting at inns and timed resting outside.

Mechanic is still broken:

 1) Fatigue on Party can be activated before 24 hours, so player cannot rest again at current area and must go to area with inn

2) Player can still cheat - leave current area and jump to area with inn, then back to current area
 

 

 

Good point. I suppose restricting yourself from rests can be easily self-imposed by the player for increased difficulty so there's also that.

 

I remember DavidW created a resting related mod not too long ago (EE only) that required the player to purchase camping supplies in order to rest. That's another way to approach it I guess.

I noticed in the latest update you fixed the sequencer order bug.

 

I'm pretty sure a number of other bugs still exist with this line of spells. Sequencers and so on...

 

I can recall unexpected crashes when trying to delete sequencers/triggers...etc from the menu, and I also believe firing certain spells from sequencers/triggers can alter their properties in unexpected ways. In my last playthrough acid fogs when loaded into a trigger would bypass spell resistance, for example. 

 

Might be worth exploring deeper.

Hey Insomniator,

 

Do you think this component from Tweaks Anthology could be hacked into the originals?

 

Hide Visual Effects from Invisible Enemies [Luke] link.png
EEex required; available for BGEEBG2EEIWDEEEET

This component simply makes sure that visual effects are hidden from invisible enemies. The player will no longer be able to "see" invisible mages just because they previously cast something like Fireshield or Globe of Invulnerability.

I get some warnings installing Infinity Sounds v2.2 on BGT.

Which version of the Fixpack have you installed? These labels were added in v15; WeiDU is simply telling you that. The two components should've installed correctly  ;)

Yep, that was the issue. Needed to update the fixpack. Thanks
