Suggestion: Change luck stat boost
Just saw this mod and think it's an awesome idea.

One of the screenshots shows a fractional buff to luck. Since the game always rounds luck down for all calculations this stat won't matter until you increase your luck past 1 (unless you're Eden). Since boosting the luck stat cannot be as granular as the stat description implies you should try to replicate luck increases through other methods that can be as granular as the mod can provide. My suggestions to do this are:

  • Increase the chance that a normal penny spawns as a lucky penny by a percentage.
  • Increase luck up pill/decrease luck down pill spawn rates by a percentage.
  • Increase the chance that a room completion reward is good by a percentage.
  • You're the designer and may think of something better.

The screenshot listing multiple modifiers is the 'total modifiers' screen, showing the effects of all nodes you've allocated. While I didn't have that many luck nodes in that one, I do agree that the luck nodes are rather underwhelming as is, compared to the level investment.

I'm a bit on the fence on exactly how much luck I want the tree to give but I'd likely buff the amount of luck given in general, and perhaps replace some of them with a few extra luck-related nodes like the ideas you gave here. Also of note is that +all stats and +all stats% nodes will also affect luck unless otherwise specified.

I've now increased the flat luck boosts on the global tree and added a few more luck related effects with version 0.1.7.
