Toph

Description
Adds Toph to the game!

Toph should now work properly for all DLCs! (Just not for Don't Starve Together, because of reasons.)

For those of you who are not aware, Toph is a blind earthbender from Nickelodeon's Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Here's her abilities:

Nightvision: She's blind, but she can see with her feet.
Throw-able rocks: In the hands of a great earthbender, rocks are projectile weapons that deal moderate damage at range. (10 rocks can take down a Koalaphant! That's TWO whole boomerangs!)
Boulder-punching: She has demonstrated time and time again that THE BOULDER is no match for her. She can break apart boulders with a single punch--no pickaxe required!
Digging: As an earthbender, Toph can, of course, bend the earth. She can dig things up without needing a shovel.

To use her earthbending abilities (namely the boulder-punching and digging abilities), you have to manually click on what you want to interact with. This means that some of the controls are different and it may take some practice to get the hang of them. This also means, unfortunately, that Toph's earthbending abilities cannot be used with a gamepad, and this mod does not have controller support.

Before you ask what her weakness is, there isn't one. It's frickin' Toph for Pete's sake. She isn't meant to be balanced.

Special thanks to the makers of Don't Starve and Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Also, special thanks to RedRock911 and Reinert.

And a special note to all of you who want Toph in DST:
Long story short, I need some additional art for DST that isn't required for the original. Dominion V was kind enough to do all the original art without payment, but has declined to do the DST art. I would need someone else to do the artwork for it as I am artistically inept myself, but it seems like no one wants to touch it. Due to the way Don't Starve and DST are set up, I'm unable to do the code work for it unless the art already exists.

@pimenteroo I've spent maybe the last half-hour trying, but it crashes whenever I enable the mod and I can't get it to tell me why, so... I'm afraid it's not happening.

Is possible to add a option to make the dig and mine the secondary click?

@Juleslia I, uh... never claimed to know how to fight. :)

best mod character if you cant fight.You just stay as far as possible and throw rocks.

Ah, much better, very informative, thank you.

@Freeasabird🕊 If you wanted a more serious answer about how the gameplay of it works, it basically just equates to nightvision. Also, there's a visual filter (that can be disabled in the mod settings) that's applied to the screen.
Her descriptions of most objects is "I may be blind, but I can see it with my feet," but she has custom descriptions for a few things, and there are some objects for which her description is "I may be blind, but I can see it... for some reason." This serves to lampshade the fact that, realistically, Toph's earthbending "sight" shouldn't be able to pick up on it.
In actuality, the main reason was that I still have only a cursory understanding of Lua (and almost zero understanding of graphics rendering), and thus have no real concept of how to make a given object partially or conditionally visible... including the condition of "is the character currently being played Toph".

@Freeasabird🕊 She can see with her feet!
Freeasabird🕊 Nov 14, 2022 @ 12:30pm 
So she's Blind, how does that work exactly?

@El That is true! The configuration code doesn't contain a mechanism to turn that setting on. In "modinfo.lua", line 53 begins with two hyphens. Remove those two hyphens, and it will be possible to enable that setting.
