Link, The Hero

Description
Link, of The Legend of Zelda fame.

Link is a seasoned adventurer, and well equipped for whatever may come his way in the wilderness. His experience has jaded him to the point of sanity being a non-issue. He'll fight a king of nightmare-beasts before breakfast, and not even blink at it.

He is used to living off what's available, and has developed a strong stomach.

Compared to the average character, Link is faster, stronger, and tougher. However, he has a smaller stomach, and faster hunger rate - running around, and fighting like that burns off the calories much faster! Link is perhaps best played as a hunter - hunt, kill, and eat monsters to stay alive. Or, failing monsters… adorable, harmless little bunnies. You monster.

Link brings a number of Hero's Items with him on his adventure.

All Hero's Items are unbreakable, and uncraftable. So don't lose them!

WOULD YOU PREFER THE 'HERO' ITEMS TO HAVE THE NAMES USED IN OCARINA OF TIME?

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

*Can you port this to Don't Starve Together?

Unfortunately, no. I just don't have time to work on this.
You're welcome to attempt it yourself.


*Is it DLC compatible?

RoG, yes. And it does have upgrades for DLC mechanics - the Red Tunic will save you from summer heat, while the Blue will function as a raincoat.
Shipwrecked will crash on World Generation sometimes, and always causes issues with the Coconade. It could probably be fixed with a rewrite of the Bomb code, but I think I just have to call it incompatible with Shipwrecked.


*Where did my fairy go?

The fairy is buggy. Regrettably so. She is at present unable to enter Wormholes, and has a nast habit of getting stuck on the environment. You can get her back if you retrace your steps.


*This doesn't work with RPG HUD!

Actually, it does. I even recommend it for best experience.
It does not, however, work with RPG HUD Neat - you must use the RPG HUD Default version.
I believe this is because of Link's added Magic Meter, and removed Sanity.
Alas, I cannot do anything to fix this, so all I can tell you is to use the Default version instead. Pair it with Always-On Status, for best results.


*Are you still working on this?

This is a project I love and am proud of, but I don't have time to dedicate to this.

林克是一个经验丰富的冒险家，并且他全副武装地面对任何可能发生的意外。他的经历使他厌烦了理智【大概为移除了理智值】。他会在早餐前和一个恶梦之王（a king of nightmare-beasts）【影怪？】搏斗，甚至都不带眨眼的。

他习惯于靠可获得的东西过活，而且已经进化出一个强壮的胃。

与普通角色相比，Link更快、更强、更强硬。然而，他有一个更小的胃，更快的饥饿率-到处跑，像这样的战斗燃烧卡路里更快！林克也许是最好的猎人-狩猎，杀死，并吃怪物生存。或者，失败的怪物-可爱，无害的小兔子。你这个怪物。

林克带了很多英雄物品去冒险。

所有英雄物品都是牢不可破的。所以不要失去他们！

你更喜欢“英雄”的物品（Hero's Items）而不是用在时间陶笛里用的名字（THE NAMES USED IN OCARINA OF TIME）吗？
只需下载并使用这个小调整！!

In case grimStone's comment gets deleted:

I found the bug where the Fairy won't follow through the wormhole nor Forora's Wind.

The Fairy is never properly assigned as a follower to the player, so the code that handles transporting followers wasn't triggering.

How to fix:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\dont_starve\mods\workshop-179124884\scripts\prefabs\fairy.lua

Open the file with a text editor.
Add the following underneath the inst:AddComponent("follower") line.

local player = GetPlayer()
if player and player.components.leader then
player.components.leader:AddFollower(inst)
end

Then save.
Hope this helps!

In case grimStone's comment gets deleted:

I found the bug that causes the crash when cutting grass.

When you cut the grass with the sword originally there was a chance to have a rupee, a magic jar, and/or a heart drop. At some point the magic jar and heart were removed but the chance for those items to drop was left in the code.

If the code tries to drop the jar or heart then the failure occurs because it then passes a "nil" value into the code that gives the player the items.

How to fix:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\dont_starve\mods\workshop-179124884\sword_cut_grass.lua

Open the file with a text editor. Comment out lines 65-80 inside the cutWithSwordFn function then save. (add -- in front of each line)

Rupees will also not drop anymore to keep the fix simple for most folks.
This disables the function, but it doesn't have a benefit to the player at this time.

Hope this helps!

Still just one of my absolutely favorite mods. I just love this mod so much, have the biggest Award I can give you. (Take My Points or something like that.)

Me, when I first start with this mod: this is WAYYYY too overpowered!

Me, 10 minutes in unable to do anything without starving: this is WAYYYY too underpowered!
