CYF Expansion

Description
An expansion for Choose Your Fighter for Caves of Qud spanning nearly 30 character choices so far. Obviously this mod will not work if you aren't using Kernelmethod's excellent Choose Your Fighter mod.

Caves of Qud is a brilliantly deep and immersive game with surprisingly good visual style for a roguelike. There are dozens of different cute and visually striking silhouette-style player sprites to choose from, and they capture a wide variety of character and personality. Despite this, the one thing I have always felt it's missing is the lack of visually present mutations or cybernetics - other than the shell on the Dream Tortoise and the torso of an errant Hindren, there are no player sprites to represent the vast amount of many-limbed horrors mutant players often build, or the dystopic cyborgs Truekin players put together. Thus, CYFEx - Choose Your Fighter Expansion - is born. Feel free to DM me, comment or open an issue with character build requests!

=== Recommendation ===

There is a lot of color design in many player sprites (not just in this mod but in others as well) and the "Color player's @ based on HP Level" option can wash them out at full health. Turning this off will improve the look of a lot of sprites.

See the Github for future plans as well as an image of every sprite!

@Joviiiel this is actually really useful to know thank you.

Hey yall, yeah -- also, Choose Your Fighter adds an NPC that lets you change and flip your tile as well. As you might notice it's been a year since I touched this though so let me know if there is any other weirdness!

@Zesty @Miyu

Choose Your Fighter adds a debug command(wish) that flips your tile.

chooseyourfighter:hflip -- flip the player's tile horizontally.

Wanted to figure out how to flip them myself so I just dug a lil bit and the answer was at the bottom of CYF's steam workshop description, just wanted to share here to help out.

Sprites are facing the wrong way.

Are these Tiles facing backwards for anyone else?

Actually after more testing I think it was another mod that was causing the crashes and the 5 crashes I got when picking the whisper was probably just coincidental.

I am not sure what is causing this but every time I try to make a character and select the whisper sprite from this mod on the new update my game crashes.

Sorry I didn't see your response: you can hit me up on the CoQ discord, I'm Sarcose there as well.

All I pray is for someone to make just a completely massive abomination. Eater-esque looking thing + Clayface gloopy-ness with club fists.

@sarcose, for sure you can DM your discord link I'd like to learn how to make my own sprites too and bolster your CYF expansion.
