Vault Hunters Extra Rules

This simple mod adds 2 new Game Rules to allow more adjustments to the Vault Looting.
This mod works extremely well with "Arcade Mode".

  • false (default) - no change

vaultExtraMaxPlayerLevel (default: value from VaultLevelsConfig) - allows changing max vault level via gamerule

  • VAULT - the game rule will target all players in the same vault. (by owner)
  • PLAYER - the game rule will be targeted by every player separately.
  • a new command for player `/extra_rules set <gamerule> <value>`

This part was implemented by ItsWormy. A huge thanks to him.

Rules that players can change:

  • vaultExtraCopiouslyDropModifier - (default: VAULT)
  • vaultExtraCoinDrops - (default: VAULT)
  • vaultExtraSoulShardDrops - (default: SERVER)
  • vaultExtraCompletionExperienceModifier - (default: PLAYER)
  • vaultExtraBonusExperienceModifier - (default: PLAYER)
  • vaultExtraReusePedestals - (default: VAULT)
  • vaultLoot - (default: VAULT)
  • vaultCrystalMode - (default: PLAYER)
  • vaultExtraAllowFlaskUseWhilePause - (default: VAULT)
  • vaultExtraAllowTrinketSwapWhilePause - (default: VAULT)
  • vaultExtraAllowCharmSwapWhilePause - (default: VAULT)
  • vaultExtraMaxPlayerLevel - (default: SERVER)
  • vaultExtraSpiritSpawnLocation - (default: SERVER)

NOTE:

  • The Vault Hunters LOOT game rule will not affect the experience. That is delegated to the new 2 flags.
  • Coins are increased similarly to the chest content, but it will be in fixed quantities, so with `normal` it will be 1, `plenty` it will be 2, and `extreme` it will be 3.
  • Copiously drop modifier will be triggered only if copiously is triggered. And it will multiply the original outcome of it.
