Backlog QoL: preselect directive paths, free next pages, and reroll directives for gats.

About this mod Author’s original text

BacklogImprovements

A BepInEx QoL mod for Mycopunk that combines backlog (directive) improvements into one package:

  • Preselect path — plan a directive sequence and auto-progress through it
  • Free next page — no resource cost to generate the next backlog page
  • Reroll — reroll one directive or the whole page for gats

This mod replaces the separate packages PreselectBacklog, FreeBacklogPages, and RerollBacklog. Uninstall those

three if you still have them installed to avoid double-patching.

Features

Preselect path

  • Edit Path mode — click directives to build a planned sequence (one per tier)
  • UI path lines — stable UI-space connectors with order badges
  • Auto-claim — completed path nodes claim rewards automatically
  • Auto-activate next — after a path node is claimed, the next path node activates
  • Progress on open / refresh — claim + activate recover if progress was interrupted earlier
  • Clear path — remove the planned path for the current page
  • Persistence — paths are saved per backlog page across sessions

Free next page

  • Completing a backlog page no longer requires paying a percentage of held resources
  • Next-page hold prompt no longer shows a resource cost
  • Toggle takes effect immediately (no restart); config file changes are picked up live

Reroll

  • Reroll Page — regenerate every not-started directive on the current page
  • Reroll One — enter selection mode, click a not-started directive, confirm to reroll it
  • Active and completed directives are never changed
  • Configurable cost (default 50 gats per directive; page reroll multiplies by eligible count)

Unified toolbar

All controls live on a single bottom toolbar in the directive window. Path-edit and reroll-select modes are mutually

exclusive.

Dependencies

  • Mycopunk
  • BepInEx 5.4.2403+
  • SparrohUILib 1.1.1+ (Sparroh-SparrohUILib)

Installation

r2modman (recommended): install Sparroh-BacklogImprovements (pulls SparrohUILib). Remove the old

standalone mods if present.

Manual: place BacklogImprovements.dll in BepInEx/plugins/ and ensure SparrohUILib is installed.

Usage

  • Open the backlog / directive window.
  • Path: click Edit Path, select directives (same tier replaces; re-click removes), then Done.
  • When a path directive completes, rewards are claimed and the next path node activates. Opening or refreshing the menu

also recovers claim + activate if needed.

  • Reroll: use Reroll Page (cost) or Reroll One (cost); confirm the gats spend.
  • Clear removes the path for the current page.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. 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.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. 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.
