Description
The Interdimensional Travel Agency

Hello, and welcome! Ever wanted to explore the planes? Itching to go and murder your way through your enemies again in Hades, or face the servants of the Divine before the Voice of El breaks down the door? Then this mod is for you!

With this mod, an ITA agent will be right on your door step, whether you like it or not, within a few years of the start of your adventure on Elysium, offering to sell you various scrolls to ditch this boring landscape for something a little more funky.

Included for any purchase to a sanity and/or life defying realm, you will even be given complimentary trinkets such as the Obol, to ensure that your stay in the underworld does not make you decay into dust! The ITA has even developped new Arcana to protect one from the maddening depths of the Astral Void!

(Disclaimer: Protection from madness and/or existential decay may not apply to your own underlings, check with your local archmage for mindlessness or compatibility with the underworld or astral void before going. The ITA is not liable for any madness, deaths or other inconveniences suffered while using ITA products, including possible user error with ITA scrolls sending one to an unintended destination)

In our new 'Interdimensional Safari' initiative, your local ITA agent will even offer to take tour groups into until then inaccessible realms, such as individual elemental planes, Aztlan or even the primal plane! Your ITA Agent will even offer a variety of (sold separately) equipment for your convenience, including such wonders as gems of fire resistance, rings of water breather or shovels of the mole king! For a premium, ITA gems of flying will even be made available to you!

So what are you waiting for? Download this package and your begin your very own adventure across the universe!

Notes: The game does not have scrolls for every plane and making more scrolls is impossible (the variables used for scroll teleportation cannot be modded), so I was forced to use the Tour rituals, having the ITA Agent teleport themselves alongside their army. Yes there were options to teleport a target unit but this was the simplest way to handle it and I find the idea of a tour guide to Aztlan intensely funny. Also beware, scrolls have a 5% failure chance to dump you on a random plane and/or the void. You have been warned.

I'm also extremely ambivalent about the gem of flying being available. I'm keeping it in for now, but it is INCREDIBLY powerful if you know what you're doing. Then again, so is having access to the Nexus, so I suppose it's not really that big of an issue, all things considered.

The ITA Agent has a 15% of spawning every turn after a year (12 turns) has passed for ALL classes, vanilla or modded. It will spawn on your home citadel IF you still control it. The ITA Agent will only spawn for players, it should work for multiplayer but I cannot guarantee it will. A new agent will respawn with the same conditions if the previous one has met an untimely demise. Enjoy!

You can, but it would not be a good idea nor would necessarily work. The mod adds a new unit (the ITA agent), and any new unit added after game start can cause save game corruption (all unit types are given a number, adding a new unit can cause the numbers to change, which can change large swathes of the map. Usually it only happens to modded units, but I once turned all spearmen into crossbowmen in one of my saves). Furthermore, the game has a very weird way of loading events from new mods (sometimes they work, sometimes they don't) which means the ITA agent might not spawn at all sadly.

TL;DR : I really, really don't recommend it. A new save would be preferable.

Alright, with this update every plane should be available and navigable. I ended up implementing you suggestion @fabian with the shovel and the gem of flying, because otherwise some of the planes were just royal pains to move around in.

That'd be too powerful, given the general utility of these items for everywhere else. Furthermore I'm almost certain both are always accessible from Elysium, though difficult to navigate. Plus the objects of flying would only cover the commander. I'll probably do a plane teleport ritual, maybe with some scrying (or just a blind suicide hop like the scrolls).

Idea for Sky and Agartha, perhaps the agent also sells the shovel item and one of the objects that allow to float/ to fly???

Good to hear ! I tested it on my end but there's always times where something doesn't work for other players. Well, enjoy !

Works like a charm, test with a vanillla and a mod faction
