This mod adds mutators that allows you to play as other characters in Griftlands.

You can also set the outfit of each character and apply the mutator. Then you can make that character wear the old character's outfit.

This simply allows you to play a character(with their unique deck, grafts, and mechanics) in other character's story. It doesn't change any quests to reflect on the changes. Sometimes picking an option that doesn't make sense will cause the game to crash, so don't trade your non-existing lucky coin with Krog's weighted coin.

This mod also adds another mutator that allows coin grafts to show up as a generic graft reward. Only useful when playing as Rook, obviously.

This mod adds an additional mutator that will randomly select a character. The characters selected are from all player backgrounds(even modded ones that doesn't have a mutator defined), and the randomization is rigged so that you will not get too many streaks in a row.

This mod is compatible with most other mods, however if it is not compatible with some mods, please let me know!

Notice! Since all versions of Griftlands now complies with the new modding system, there is no need for the old mod. I'll leave the old branch up, just in case, but you should really update your mod if you want it to work.



With the official mod update, you can read about how to set up mods at https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/116914-early-mod-support/.

1. Find "[user]/AppData/Roaming/Klei/Griftlands/" folder on your computer, or "[user]/AppData/Roaming/Klei/Griftlands_testing/" if you're on experimental. Find the folder with all the autogenerated files, log.txt, and "saves" directory. If you are on Steam, open the folder that starts with "steam-". If you are on Epic, open the folder that contains only hexadecimal code.
2. Create a new folder called "mods" if you haven't already.
3. Clone this repository into that folder.
4. The "modinit.lua" file should be under ".../mods/[insert_repo_name_here]".
5. Volia! Now the mod should work.


With the new official workshop support, you can directly install mods from steam workshop. You can read about it at https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/121426-steam-workshop-beta/ and https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/12♥♥♥♥-example-mods/.

1. Subscribe this item.
2. Enable it in-game.
3. Volia!


This mod is designed around the game's localization systems, and it would be a shame to let it go to waste. If you want to help me out by adding a localization file for a language of your choice, then go for it! Feel free to contact me about this topic.

To generate a .pot file for this mod, do the following:

1. If debug mode is not enabled first, enable it. (Please reference https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/121803-your-first-mod/ for more details)
2. Run the game while this mod is active.
3. Press F10 to open the debug localization screen.
4. Select the mod ID of this mod. If you installed it with steam workshop, it should be the workshop ID. If you installed it via GitHub, it should be the folder name of the mod folder.
5. Press Export Localization. The localization file should be found in the same folder as your game files(NOT your save files!).

A .pot file should also be found in the folders of this mod, if you can find it. It is NOT guaranteed to be up to date.


You can add a custom character override mutator using the "CCCUtil.AddCharacterOverrideMutator" function.

For example, to add Sal's character mutator, this is the code that should be run. Note that this code also automatically checks if CCC is loaded, so that it is skipped if CCC is not installed.


Note: The function "CCCUtil.AddCharacterOverrideMutator(id, graft)" is added during the first level of OnLoad. It is recommended that you call it during the second level of OnLoad (the returned function from your OnLoad function), as it guarantees that this function is already loaded.


See the changelog tab for more details.
