Way to mod the game?
Hello,
After I've now tried hundreds of time to win in this game I'd like to ask if there is a way to make this game more fair. For example Im sick of enemies hiting me once but inflicting several damage points or even onehit me when Im on full life.
Im not even sure if this is a bug but for example I found out that even normal monsters sometimes make more than just -1 dmg. For examle a bandit from the first level once hit me one time and inflicted 4 damage. Because of this ♥♥♥♥ I never made it further than level 5 and it's hell of frustrating to die to such unfair reasons.

Another thing I would like to change would be the ammo and aid packs that drop to drop more often and also don't despawn this fast and maybe also the amout of ammo one can carry.
It would just be alot more fun I think especially for some weapons what run out of ammo in no time. Even this perks you unlock do not really help much.

NTT, Nuclear Throne Together, has modding. idk if there are mods that do exactly what you ask for but there are mods that can make the game easier.

Like mentioned in this thread already, NTT is the way to go for mods. It has a bunch of mods that could help you make the game a bit easier.

Well I've kinda ment to edit a config file or something alike... I still want to stay singleplayer at least Im not sure if you mean by this NTT the coop mode or a complete own kind of game version

NTT started out as a coop mod, but grew into the base for all mods of the game going forward. It won't let you edit config files like you're expecting, but there are other mods you can explore from there to change the game. Customizing the game yourself would likely require some programming experience.

There is an addon mod for NTT that will unlock a bunch of debug features. You could use these as cheat codes to make the game easier, but that's probably taking it too far unless you've completed a good portion of the game already (not just beating the Throne on a character or two). It won't affect your progress on the normal game, as the mod uses its own save file and leaves a copy of the base game unmodded.

The other option is to keep practicing in the base game. The game is a lot more fair than you think, it is just very hard. People get insane scores on the base game and they all started off dying in the first levels as well when they got the game.

well... tried alot to practice but I never made it any further than to the fifth level.
tI's pissing me off geting hit once but losing two and sometimes even 4 HP - that's what I mean with unfair...
Also the levels are random buildup and this creates sometimes very unfair situations like spawning infront of several armed enemies like this scorpions with no cover around and so you have no chance to dodge the shots...
The ammunition is often a problem too... Most weapons don't have much ammo you can carry or have an insane firerate - I allways try to get a melee weapon especially the wrench but for some enemies that's not all to effective at least if you have several enemies around you but better than a gun with no ammo than you're screwed.

is it possible to download this mods from a browser? I don't know if there is a Steam workshop for that but to be honest I have the game on another plattform than Steam...

The very first reply on this thread links NTT. Additional mods for NTT can be found in itch.io.

I promise there is consistency in the amount of damage you receive. The level generation is random indeed but there are some things put in place to allow for things like safe spawns. It is usually finding the right approach to defeat the enemies is the hard part early on. The game is not easy but it is *mostly* fair.

Additionally, here are mods for NTT on itch.io: https://itch.io/game-mods/tag-ntt

If you can, I would recommend recording your runs. Whenever you die to something stupid, stop and watch it back. Try to reflect on what went wrong and think about ways it could have been avoided, even if the answer was simply not to get into that position in the first place.

NT does a good job of being fair, as long as you understand that its designed to beat you. It'll take time and experience to learn its tricks and enemy patterns. It'll be worth the effort when win :)

Thanks for the answers I'll have a look for this mods :steamhappy:
Paras Mar 6, 2020 @ 10:21pm 
Oh... before I forget... I have one more question I want to get rid of: are this crowns you can get in this ... special levels (if you make it to enter the green portal) any good? I think except of one crown what effects at least a small kind of positive effect this others are pretty useless or even have a stronger negative effect than the positive one (most of the time it's a positive but also a negative).

I mean... does it really make sense to go for this portal and crowns?
InsaneFirebat Mar 6, 2020 @ 10:55pm 
Crowns are usually more pain than gain, but they can unlock some extra synergies with certain characters and/or mutations. Each one presents its own challenge, so you may want to unlock them all just to say you did. I didn't think I'd ever care about most of the crowns but I finally gave in and started unlocking them just so I'd play the characters I don't like.
