Is it possible to modify certain static elements?

With respect to 1.6 mods:

1. Can we alter the starting experience of characters?
2. Can we alter starting gold of characters?
3. Can we alter the 'minimum level' required to skip to catacombs/caves/hell?
4. Can we alter the level requirement to start a game in nightmare/hell difficulty?

I am thinking that a simple rogue-like mod could basically be as follows:

1. Players begin the game with 2500 gold at level 16 (or maybe lower, if that would be too easy...)
2. Players begin the game on 'Nightmare Mode' (Choosing graphical backend #1 and MAKE issue. SDL_image.h missing #2 together mean you get to enter the dungeon with a somewhat randomized 'build'
3. Remove level requirement to skip to the catacombs/cave/hell (so you can save/quit at those points if needed)
4. Disable the 'restart in town' button (but your friends can still resurrect you.)

Do we have control over all/some of these factors through the ini files?

1,2:yes
3,4:no

You could probably add Lua support for the missing bits

That may be over my head Ajenbo. I wouldn't know where to start.

Thanks for taking a look. On a similar topic, is it possible to override the limit for gold stacks? It seems that 10k is the limit because you can only start with one stack.

Or do you know of any other way to allow players to start with more gold?

Would suggest the chat

You mean the discord? I couldn't find a working link...

[AJenbo]

The link was down for a bit but it's been up and working for the last few days.

Alright so I ran into a little hiccup.

My plan was to update the Experience.tsv file so that you would level up to 20 after killing 1 enemy. Then you could go into nightmare with that character and start your rogue-like run.

I updated the Experience.tsv file, and It works just fine in Single Player, (you kill one enemy on normal mode and immediately become level 20.) but in multiplayer it doesn't trigger correctly, and you actually don't seem to ever gain experience if you launch with the mod enabled.

I assume the multiplayer functions are rejecting my mod. Are mods intended to be used online?
