Trader Treatment/Therapy, State Rollback, Level Penalty, Forget Crafting, Support A21

[jonathan-robertson]

Summary

This update brings some major changes, new options, and support for A21.

Major callouts are:

• 💊 No more Trader Jen's Memory Boosters; talk to the trader to purchase memory Treatment services (which heal Fragile Memory)
  • 📝 instead of becoming harder to maintain level the higher you went, amnesia version 1 became far easier; eventually allowing higher-level players to nullify all amnesia mechanics for lower-level players... which was kind of them, but sort of defeated the purpose of this mod
  • 🪙 default cost is $1,200 / level (so at level 50, it's $60k and at level 300, it would be $360,000)
• ♻️ Losing memory no longer resets all unassigned skill points
  • 📝 eating glass to intentionally reset memory is not the goal; now losing memory will no longer act as a free Grandpa's Fergit'n Elixir for players who have just reached their level threshold (if one is configured)
• 🍶 No more Grandpa's Fergit'n Elixir; talk to the trader to purchase memory Therapy to respec your skill points
  • 📝 because teamwork is being encouraged, resetting skill points will now be a service provided by traders, meaning its cost can be impacted by player level
  • 🪙 default cost is $600 / level (so... half of the cost for Treatment)
