About this mod Machine translation
Removed the mechanism for randomly contracting diseases when returning to town after an adventure.
No Random Diseases
😤 Do you hate it too: you fight your hardest to finish a fight, everything goes smoothly, no stress, no new diseases or quirks, no loss of health...only to return to town only to find out that your hero contracted tetanus from stepping on a rusty nail in a so-called "random" draw? And then you're forced to spend 1,000 gold or more to cure it?
I know that Darkest Dungeon is set in an apocalyptic universe, where the world ends because your ancestors failed to control themselves and messed with the gods of the universe... but is this too outrageous?
"Oh man! What a fight, we did well, it's time to go home...ahem! I got the bubonic plague! My friend got vertigo even though we were standing on the damn ground the whole time!"

✨ Module function
I'm tired of this "disease bullshit", players should only be punished for poor choices, not blind luck (if that counts as luck).
Therefore, I modified the game files to remove the mechanic of randomly contracting any disease on the "Return to Town" screen.

⚙️ Installation method
**For this mod to work, you need:**
- Extract the `quirk_library.json` file to the following directory:
`C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DarkestDungeon\shared\quirk\`
- This module implements the function by changing `"random_chance": 1` in the file to `"random_chance": 0`.
I wish you a happy game and no more "unexpected surprises"! 😉
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
