i can't make any promises about updates, so for right now this mod is Temporarily Unsupported. one day I'll get a wild hair and fix it.

There's a bug that makes it so in REP+ enemies in challenge rooms/boss rush/Guideon don't spawn and are replaced by a question mark instead, softlocking you inside until you either use a command to leave or restart the run.

Rgon?

the reason that i gave the indicator that tiny little flash was to help visibility on later floors, but i admit it's an imperfect solution. one day i will sit down and puzzle it out; i'm also unhappy with how the indicator interacts with red key rooms.

The mod is useful most of the time, but on certain floors the indicator is basically invisible to the point I can't see it even if I get real close to my monitor and focus for a while.

Hey everybody! i am pretty pleased to see that this mod still works in repentance after all this time. i have noticed occasional little visual bugs, namely the question marks doubling up under certain circumstances. also, with the introduction of Red Key, the question mark will not appear on certain impossible walls, which feels a little like cheating to me.

if you use this mod and have noticed any problems, or would like to see any simple changes, please comment and i will see if i can tidy them up. thanks, i love you

big shout out again to HeliOS

the question mark doesn't appear on every secret room, it only appears where a secret room entrance MIGHT be. it's mainly to help prevent wasting bombs in large rooms.

mod doesn't work for me. the question mark appears, but there's no secret room behind it.

you have no idea how many bombs ive wasted before having this mod, very cool thanks

for some reason when I enter a room without enemies the question mark appears in front of the door and not on any of the walls

OK I see what you mean. Also I didn't realize that it only shows up on CLEARED rooms, which is better.

it's less noticeable than in the example image, if that's giving you pause. i did some tweaking after the original post. i should update that

Hmmm I guess. Maybe it won't be as noticeable during play.

the current level of animation is kind of a compromise. if i make it much less visible, it is very difficult to see on some of the more visually complicated floors, like Dross. it's why it has that little flash in the animation.

I guess I could just use f3 as needed...

This looks a lot better than the other two, but does it have to be animated? It's a little distracting.

I was wondering: would it be possible to create a variant of this mod which actually labels the secret room (not the potential locations for it) with a VERY subtle crack sprite? I would love to see a mod like this so secret rooms aren't exclusive to super experienced players and luckily having some items.

If you intend to only make that into big rooms, please make an option for mod config. I like having the ? everywhere.

I think it would be better if it was off by default. That way, i'll just activate it whenever I need it.

i am going to try to make it so it only appears in large rooms and hallways. i believe this will also take care of the devil/angel bug. if anyone knows anything about lua hmu

PLEASE Make it only for big rooms

As of right now and for the foreseeable, the mod is functionally unchanged from the original. Only the animation is different. So it should be every room, unless it is impossible for a secret room to spawn there.

Does this mod ONLY show these questionmarks in L rooms and big rooms? IIRC, the mod this is based on shows a pentagram in every room, right?

with regard to the devil angel room bug, i am going to actually learn how to code in order to fix that one. i will try to take a look at it but it's kind of above my knowledge level

ok, due to popular demand, i have added a tiny little flash at the end of the animation to improve visibility. i really, really want it to be as subtle as possible and i think this is a good solution. feedback is welcome

I haven't been able to see it at all on flooded caves. It's there, but I legitimately was thinking the mod was broken on this floor

Minor bug - when you get the angel or devil room in Greed mode, the question mark shows up over it. I don't think there can ever be a secret room in that space anyway (though, to be fair, I also don't know if you can hard-code exceptions or anything).

m e g a. nz/file/SfwjyKgS#MfTFXJem9u-X3ivv9MX-Sie8ERZ9Q6FrFzUobIlFZ-M here's a link to the project files. Couldn't seem to add you on Steam so here you go. Just remove some of the spaces in the link.

I really like your question mark (better than the pentagram) ... however, I find that it is too faint for me to quickly see. Is there a way to darken or make it stand out more?

Ah thanks for fixing it overriding black powder. Did you also make it more noticable on the womb? It's there but it's really hard to notice and I'm not sure if that's due to the overlay or how transparent the sprite is.

Thank you, this is so much better

@braindrain86 Add me and I'll dm you the project files

Sure, I can mess around with it

@braindrain86 You want me to give you the image file I was going to use? I already drew it and I all but gave up trying to make it an individual mod so I may as well hand em to you

@[EmpSkit] the problem I had was figuring out how to get a crack to be oriented correctly on the walls. this was my backup plan

Should be fixed.

I see, I messed up black powder. Let me see what I can do

So if you pick up spin to win with this mod installed, its sprite works incorrectly? If so, whoops

Also it's super faint by design. I could make it less transparent if people want that, but I like it to be just barely there.

Okay, so I learned that the original mod was a pentagram because it replaces the pentagram from spin to win. So when I got it with this mod it replaces the pentagram with a question mark lol.

Nevermind, it does show it's just super faint on that floor.

This mod works very well but I did notice that it doesn't appear to show on utero/womb.

I drew a cracked wall graphic and was planning on editing HeliOS' code to have the crack appear on entering the room rather than when you clear the room, but I am complete ass at coding and couldn't get it to work

ok this is EXACTLY what I didnt know I wanted when I said "the indicator is too offputting" on the original mod
