About this mod Author’s original text

NotExponentiallItems

Every item you pick up doubles your stack.

Your first Soldier's Syringe gives you 1. The next one brings you to 2, then 4, 8, 16, 32... Each item has its own stack, so a new item always starts at 1 again.

| Pickup | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | 5th | 6th |

| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |

| You have | 1 | 2 | 4 | 8 | 16 | 32 |

What counts as a pickup

  • Items you pick up from the ground: chest drops, boss drops, printers, scrappers, cauldrons, everything that lands on the floor.
  • Items from Artifact of Command cubes.
  • Chests and choice menus that send the item straight to you as a flying orb.

Every one of these doubles the stack of that item.

What stays vanilla:

  • Temporary and rented items keep their normal count.
  • Items you get any other way (rewards handed to the whole team, items given by other items, console commands) are not doubled.
  • Equipment is not affected. You can only hold one anyway.

Config

The config file is BepInEx/config/NotExponentiallItems.cfg. It is created the first time you start the game with the mod.

| Setting | Default | What it does |

| --- | --- | --- |

| Mode | DoubleStack | DoubleStack doubles your stack on every pickup, so you have 1, 2, 4, 8, 16... DoubleAmount gives twice as many as the last pickup (+1, +2, +4, +8...), so you have 1, 3, 7, 15, 31... |

| MaxStack | 1073741824 | The stack stops growing exponentially at this size. After that, every pickup gives 1 item like in the base game. Set it lower if huge stacks get out of hand. |

Multiplayer

  • Works in single-player and for the host of a multiplayer lobby.
  • Clients don't need the mod. Only the host has to install it.
  • Every player's stacks grow on their own. Your Syringes don't care how many Syringes your friends have.

Good to know

  • This breaks the game balance on purpose. After a few pickups of the same item, things get silly fast.
  • Some items do something once per stack. With very large stacks they can make the game slow. If that happens, lower MaxStack.
  • Printers and scrappers turn into a loop: scrap doubles too, and so does every printed item.

Changelog

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
