Embark

Description
10/3/21: Embark has been massively updated. Please read change log for more details.

Inspired by Dwarf Fortress, a game in which prior to playing you can allot points to begin your adventure with any items you like (as long as you can afford them). Hence, Embark!

All Embark traits are 1 point and therefore intended to fill in cracks in your build - though you could certainly start a character with no regular traits and just a ton of items. Before considering any of the Embark options overpowered, remember that normal traits provide some sort of permanent benefit - but once you've broken, consumed, or lost these items they're gone forever!

Then again, sometimes a strong start is all you need...

Currently, you may embark with any of the following items: axe, bat, hammer, knife, first aid kit, duct tape, soap, gas can, propane tank, duffel bag, fertilizer, maps, rice, and tuna. However, updates will almost certainly add more in the future.

As with my other mod, Desperate Crafting, this was a mod I originally created and used for my own enjoyment and therefore I am happy to take suggestions about what you'd like to see, but I am a bit picky about what makes it in. Have fun!

I'm not 100% sure how to make it work in MP, but I'll investigate this. Thanks.

Grendel, if you make custom sandbox you can give extra trait points.

It does not seem to work MP.

Thanks for excellent mod!

This mod does work in build 41 stable.

Not sure if it works in multiplayer. Someone could try it out and let me know.
