I mean, the mod was a dirty hack to begin with and it's probably best to just rewrite it with however the tinkering code looks these days instead of trying to salvage it.

yeeeeeeeeeeet

does this mod still work?

I will continue the chorus of voices, adding my voice, all needing an update

I would also like to voice my support for this great mod, and am looking forward to an update

Alright, I'll have it fixed in the first, second, third, or forth quarter of 2021.

for some reason causes crashes at 201.58 while attempting to create a new character

Crashes with beta I think...

Thanks! I'm looking forward to it.

I'll try to have an update in about 3-8 months.

I wish this would work.

Both mods alone do not have this issue
Only together, thus I assumed inter-mod conflict

EFT doesn't play well for me either, but I think that has to do with the liquid changes that has been made and not this mod. Tons of mods using liquids have been crashing last I checked, but I think this mod is in the clear.

For some reason this doesn't play well with "Easy fungal treatment"
When making new char as soon as I get to stat selection, game window closes itself.

To clarify, I can't change the cap of three and the scaling up to that point. What I do is reset the counter every item has of "how many modifications do I have?" to zero every time a tinkering is made. Instead of "0 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3, no more mods", it goes "0 -> 1, nevermind, 0 -> 1, nevermind, 0 -> 1, nevermind, 0" and so on.

Welp. I guess that there's nothing you can do about it, then.

Not possible.

"The lack of scaling is really a side effect of uncapping the mods. While it could be possible to have one without the other, I can't think of a decent way to implement that."

You could increase the cap to a level that would be practically infinite, (like 99,) and then put scaling back in, right? Or is that just not possible?

I can confirm that you are in fact speaking out of your ass.

just me speaking out my ass but if the game has it where it only allows items to have 3 mods couldn't you increase that number to like 50, also for the scaling cost if it works off a number of mods tied to a percentage you could have adjusted it right???

No, my hack is to set the number of modifications on an item back to 0 every time you tinker with it. The game excludes items with 3 or more from tinkering. Last time I checked, you could do something similar with polygel in vanilla due to the clone item copying the mods, but not the variable that stores the total number of mods.

would it just want a bunch of 8 pieces at some point if it did scaling still?

fair enough

The lack of scaling is really a side effect of uncapping the mods. While it could be possible to have one without the other, I can't think of a decent way to implement that.

how about keeping the scaling cost but removing the limit?
It allows the player to keep making very very good gear while keeping the costs "fair"
