Glowstick overhaul mod, aiming to make them more viable as a common pickup.
About this mod Author’s original text
[HOST + CLIENT REQUIRED]
Glowsticks, rebalanced and significantly more useful!
The overall aim of this mod is to make glowsticks more competitive as consumables, allowing them to actually fulfill their niche purpose well enough to be a worthwhile pickup in expeditions.
💡 Brightness and duration have been boosted massively, letting them find use in both dark or foggy stealth and alarms
💡 Number of glowsticks found in a pack has been decreased to compensate, to avoid trivializing dark sections completely
💡 Apparent brightness gets normalized, allowing seasonal and custom-color glowsticks to reach as far as base game's yellow
💡 All of the above is customizeable via config settings, so you can tweak your lobby to your liking
For the mod to work, the host of the lobby has to have this mod installed, as clients get the lobby configuration from them - otherwise glowsticks will behave as in base game.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
