TPSRelaunched

Bringing it back to 2020 with a non Command Extensioned, fully multiplayer-able Borderlands overhaul... now for the Pre-Sequel!

This mod serves to rebalance the game in many ways so it feels fundamentally familiar, but buildcrafting is clearer and more deterministic. Many of the unique items shared with BL2 have been modified and/or replaced, to offer a bit of freshness, and almost every type of item- unique or otherwise- has been altered in some way to better serve a purpose or stack up to competition.

Difficulty-wise, I would consider it slightly harder than vanilla TPS at base, but you have more potent options for builds such as pure Melee and Status Effects, so previously unviable or niche builds perform far better, even if generic gun builds do a tiny bit worse against the new scaling.

Patch notes will be listed below, higher is more recent.

**8/29 Patch: The One About Vendors, Two Very Special Rocket Launchers, and Torks **

**Characters **

Wilhelm

Increased Wolf Damage scaling from 2.25 to 2.4 for both base bolts and Venom Bolts.

**Vending Machines / Economy **

Increased Cash pickup scalar from 1.75 to 2.0

Description (from inside mod)

TPS Relaunched v.1.0

I've heard the term "Beta Patch" thrown around- I think I'd consider this one of those.
"Created" by WhatLake, after 7 months and half a billion stupid questions in the BL Modding Discord (and plenty of smart answers!)

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Firstly, a very sincere thanks to all members of the modding community who have allowed me to use or modify code from their own mods:

---Ravenjim and the UCP Team, TPS Community Patch:

This mod is literally built on the framework that is the TPS UCP, including but hardly limited to the enemy loot pool setup,
a few skill changes (ex. Hyperion Punch), and the entire section "Quality of Life/System Changes- UCP".

The phrase "I couldn't have done it without x" is thrown around a lot but I genuinely wouldn't have known how- or where- to start.

In crediting Ravenjim and the TPS UCP team, it would be unfair to not also credit the people *they* had permission to use code from.

I simply left the UCP file's own credit / thanks section here so it would be crystal clear whose code ended up in this mod.

ModCabinet is auto-generated based on information found in the BLCM Github. Information here could be wrong in various ways. The About ModCabinet Wiki page will have information about any errors encountered while building the wiki. If you see something amiss, please stop by the community Discords and let us know. (Apocalyptech is the maintainer of this code at the moment, if you wanted to @ him specifically.)
