Description
Rework of my Golden chests in dark room mod

Thought it was different enough to deserve it's own upload

Ever wondered why you get 4 golden chests filled with goodies in the Chest and get 4 red chests filled with crap in the Dark room?

Well, I wondered that too!
I'm for precious equality, so to make the Dark room more appealing to you folks out there, here's a mod that changes the 4 Red chests in the dark room into 4 Golden chests Red chests that drop items!

ADDED IN CONFIGURATION:

So people wanted red chests to only drop items from the respective item pool...
Well, here it is...Fair warning, it's almost always an instant guppy transformation

(Type these into the command console from AB+)

- To have only items from the red chest itempool from red chests in the dark room(OFF BY DEFAULT):

RedChests RedChestItems true

(Change to 'false' if you want to put it off again)

- To have items from the red chest and devil item pool(OFF BY DEFAULT)

RedChests DevilAndRedChestItems true

If you put one of these on, the other one will be automatically be put off

- Look at the current settings:

RedChests CurrentSettings

- Reset it to default:

RedChests ResetToDefault

- Look at the command options:

RedChests

As always, leave a comment if you find any bugs or have any constructive critizism about this change....

Will be including this in my Mega Mod

<Have a good one!>

27/06/2018: - Added in Configuration and the ability to change the items gotten from red chests to come from the red chest itempool
01/07/2018: - Added in extra config options (the option to get both devil and red chest itempool items)

Sadly this mod stopped working for me for some reason. Thanks for all the time I've enjoyed it!

I tried it again, and it worked after I set it to true by once again copy-pasting the console code. Which is weird, because every time I initially tried putting the code copypasted from the description into the console I went to the dark room to check whether it worked. Oh well, thanks for the help!

Weird, i redownloaded the mod just try it out, and the only really weird thing I found out was that the Devil + redchestitems option was on by default. I also checked the chests and they were indeed dropping redchest + devilroom items.
I'm gonna restate that you need to put in:
'RedChests DevilAndRedChestItems true'
Even if the setting is already on, it will still state it's been put on again. So maybe be wary of spelling errors.
Note that if the capital letters are a pain to type, the console is case-insensitive, so you can just type it in lowercase if that's more handy...

The Devil + Red chest itempool config option doesn't seem to work. The debug console responds to it by stating a list of acceptable commands that does not include the devil + red chest option, the CurrentSettings just state the red chest option is off, and the chests do not actually contain devil room/red chest items.

Added your request as a config option

I think an alternative to the RedChestItem settings is to drop items of both the red chest and the Devil Room pool

I understand that, but...
After putting around 800-ish hours into this game, I noticed I only went to the Dark Room if it was for a completion mark or cause of 'novelty' since I literally would always go for the Chest route cause of easy acces to items AND the added bonus of the Polaroid wich is actually better IMO in comparison to the Negative (if you got damage in heaps, invincibility becomes more interesting really)

I'm not really equalizing this to make the Dark Room route more 'easy', I'm trying to make it more accessible since if most people do what I do, the Dark Room actually sort of loses its use and becomes utter pointless apart from said completion marks...

But hey, that's only my opinion. And I know this isn't the 'best of all' balance changes, but that's why it's only mod. If you don't like it, more power to you honestly.
