b Improved Compatibility with Shiny Mechanics

a year ago

Hi, enjoying using this mod on my modded playthrough but have encountered a bug.

Using the addon mod "Quality++ | Shiny Mechanics" which is a supported dependency for this mod seems to have an unintentional interaction with the Quality Control level up system. When a machine triggers an upgrade it will inherit a "Shiny" quality instead of a normal quality upgrade. Over the course of a 70hr playthrough hundreds of machines have upgraded to "Improved: Shiny" whereas only one or two have upgraded to "Improved". It might be as simple as the chance values having been flipped.

Cheers!

Oh shoot, ok I have an idea of what might be happening. I'll take a look, thank you for letting me know!

Thanks again for reporting this Spacey!

The fix is published now. The probability of shiny variants are respected now.

There are also two new startup settings:
- Hidden qualities are sticky: when you get a shiny variant it will stop upgrading (this is on by default)
- Skip hidden qualities: quality control will skip shiny qualities if turned on (this is off by default)

Let me know if you run into any issues

This is perfect.

A fix that goes above and beyond for the sake of QOL. Excellent work :)

Cheers!
