Pathos I - Adventure map

This is an adventure map, scenario, a game within a game, call it whatever you want. It's designed for two players playthrough, but can be played by up to 4. There is also a solo version, but be aware that it lacks a couple of puzzles.

The only goal is to escape the station.

Playthrough time is 120-180 minutes (restarts included)


[PREPARATION]
1. Subscribe to [Pathos I], also subscribing to the rest of the required mods.

2. In settings, mods menu, enable all 4 mods (from right column, to left)
[Pathos, Spawner, Stupider Husks, Pure Empty Level].
-Turn on vertical synchronization. (extra perfomance stability)
-Set "line of sight to "opaque".
-Disable as many resource-intensive background applications as possible.
(barotrauma utilizes only one core, which can already be loaded with torrents, browser, YouTube, etc. )

Map(game) requires your computer to have a processor with powerful cores.(2x4hz better than 4x2hz) If usually you have more than 120 fps, you can skip step 3. I got i7 4790 3.6-4.0GHz (2014), mostly i got more than 90 fps average, except final.

3. (Recommended for both playes)
Subscribe to: [Performance Fix, Lua for barotrauma]
- In the game, in the "mods" tab, drag all 4 mods from the right column to the left and apply.
- Click "Host server", in the window that appears, in the line "server executable" select "Lua for barotrauma".
- In next window press [F3] button and type install_cl_lua. Restart the game.
- Host server as usual but remember about "server executable" and select "Lua for barotrauma". (proceed to step 4)

4. Create server, in "sub" list select "[Co-op]\[Solo] Pathos - I",
-Disable respawn shuttle, respawn time for like 1-2 minutes.
-Level seed 123, difficulty 0%(or you can set higher if you are feeling experienced), sandbox gamemode.


[GAME RULES].
You must put all your items into the green box, leaving only the id card, headphones and clothes

-All the rest are hints that will save you time and nerves:
1) Oxygen, energy, and time are mostly limited.
2) Wrenches, screwdriwers and so on wont do anything.
3) Green ammo is suitable for green weapons, as well as yellow for yellow and red for red.
4) One key-card for one lock.
5) Husks are modified, they can not open doors and break them, cant climb ladders, has different HP modifier and new loot system.
6) Switches do not turn on the lights instantly.
7) All terminals and passwords are case sensitive (capital/small letters).
8) In the case of a death\ruined progress, enter code 2345 in the terminal to get cheats\debug items. The white card opens all doors.

I also want to thank:
TheSolbusaur for the idea
Urdakan for creating a spawner
Ridicolas for creating a timer
Joulupukki for wonderful auto-turrets

Blablabl:
Yes, i played Soma, Dead Space and Bioshock, and im obviously heavily inspired by those games.
Now station name is refer to Soma, and not Prey. No idea why i called it as Prey station back in days.

It`s been 300+ hours in development, and first release was more than year ago and honestly, even after devs ruins some parts of gameplay, i still happy with the result, and tired, for sure. Every single update framerate gets worse and worse, but thx to gamers, you can use perfomance fix.
I wish i cound invent more cooperative puzzles, but im not that smart. Also lore\story would be cool, but im tired.

Thx for reading
