[v1.7.0+] Less Weird
Posted: Sat Jan 02, 2021 12:44 am
I've been sitting on this one for a long time, hoping to figure out a less hacky way of implementing it — and then DarkGod dropped one in my lap with the 1.7 engine's dispel infrastructure. 
The result is my new Less Weird addon, which transforms the confrontation with the Weirdling Beast from a Sisyphean nightmarish slog to an actually manageable fight. The new item you'll need will be on level 3 of Nur, just before you dive in. You're welcome. 
[And no, this one is obviously not going into ZOmnibus.
