EarthBound Zero: Ninten

THIS IS A PORT OF THE DON'T STARVE TOGETHER MOD BY YOURS TRULY.
Be sure to give it a look!




The main protagonist of EarthBound Beginnings, Ninten is a young boy with a knack for baseball, penguins and being cool. In his game, he sets out to discover the origin of his psychic powers and save Earth from alien invasion, but now his skills are put to the test against the threats of the Constant in Don't Starve!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ninten gains extra sanity from wearing clothing items, as well as the ability to craft his baseball cap and coat: both highly valuable items. Along with that, he possesses the ability to use the PSI techniques PSI Shield and 4D Slip, potent abilities that can be upgraded as he progresses. However, Ninten preferring style over safety means he will refuse to wear armor, and he also suffers from asthma, a condition that can flair up from being too active or failing to dress appropriately for the season. Be sure to keep it under control as it can become life threatening, although he can fall back on his trusty inhaler if it comes down to it... assuming you possess one!

Inhaler

• Special item that can be used by Ninten to subdue an asthma attack
  
• May be crafted with 1 blue gem, 3 reeds, 6 nitre (requires prestihatitator)
  
• Can be bought at the 'The Sty' Oddities Emporium* for 50 oincs

4D Slip

• May be upgraded to 4D Slip Omega, which increases Ninten's run speed by 50% for a short period of time after teleportation

PSI Shield

• Costs 40 sanity per use
  
• Provides the target with 50% damage absorption for a short period of time
  
• May be upgraded to Powershield, which absorbs 80% of incoming damage and reflects it back to the attacker, while also remaining active for longer
  
• Requires 2 purple gems to upgrade (shadow manipulator)
  
• NOTE: to cast shield on yourself, equip the item and then right click it again. This is due to a limitation in Don't Starve that disallows spell casters to target themselves

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• THE MOD IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH VANILLA DON'T STARVE (No DLC enabled), THERE IS VERY LITTLE I CAN DO ABOUT THIS. I apologize for the inconvenience, I may look for a resolution in the future but right now this is a won't-fix.
  
• If a Beefalo rider has a Powershield and the Beefalo is hit, they will reflect back damage to the attacker even though the Beefalo is the only one to take damage. This effectively means you can stack the effects of Powershield with the Beefalo and reflect 160% of incoming damage back.
  
• *This is not precisely a bug but the mod adds Ninten's Inhaler to the 'The Sty' Oddities Emporium (I have yet to see it ingame so please let me know if you do), but because of how the code for shops is structured, this WILL cause issues with other mods that edit the item list for the same shop. Apologies but it's out of my hands. If demanded I can remove this feature.

Please let Lucas know if you find any issues. This port was quite extensive so it's entirely possible something was missed. Please be descriptive, I'm not a magician I can't magically know what the problem is, thanks in advance!

Also, the mod is configurable. You can change his stats, sanity costs for PSI or even turn off his asthma if you find it too intrusive. Constructive feedback is nevertheless appreciated.
