Seems to randomly replace other trinkets. Very annoying considering one just replaced the Embilical Cord. I will be disabling this mod until it's fixed.

repentance?

For some reason this trinket will randomly replace other trinkets, it also breaks active items that passively gain charge without clearing rooms

Thanks to everyone suggesting and liking the mods! The team behind them is currently on holidays/vacations, and it's really hard to get together and make more of these or make fixes to the existing mods. We're sorry, and will be back with a bang in september!

Sure, I'm always taking tips to balance the item more. It's really easy to make it rarer, so I'll take a look!

The draining effect happens waaaaaayyyyyyyy too often. All I've found with this is that active items are mostly unusable because it keeps eating their energy. Could do with some tweaks.

Check out tne new reddit modpack from this month, featuring this item!

Can Cracked Battery replace another trinket randomly? I entered a Treasure Room that had three trinkets but one of them changed into cracked battery after a few seconds.

THX!!

I had some coding knowledge, that can be easily found online. My isaac and lua knowledge is though all self-taught, looking at other people's mods ;)

Hi I also want to start modding but im not so practiced in coding just basics things. So I wanted to ask how did you learn to code ? Some advices maybe?

But also Great work keep going!!!!
Merlo  [author] 8 May, 2017 @ 8:07am 
Just updated this and the die, to spawn in about 10x less often. Let me know how it goes!
Merlo  [author] 8 May, 2017 @ 7:55am 
I'll work on it, thanks for the heads up!

The same thing happens with all of your trinkets (Merio's I mean). You see them at least once in a run, sometimes even twice. The ideas are great but it's really annoying seeing them so often.
Merlo  [author] 8 May, 2017 @ 7:40am 
I'll have a look at it. If anyone wants to try themselves, just open the main.lua file and toy around with "TrinketChance". The higher that is the rarer trinkets will get! I don't have much time to playtest full runs unfortunately, but I'll look at it myself too

Awesome, good to know you are looking to carry on improving, yeah, as i said it should probably be about 5-10x rarer to fit into the feeling of vanilla isaac in my opinion.
Merlo  [author] 8 May, 2017 @ 3:32am 
The mod is still testing, so it's great you gave this feedback. The spawning function is entirely custom from me, and I'd rather keep it that way, but it's fully tweakable into making them rarer or not, so I really need your feedback to adjust it. The other stuff is really easy to fix too, so I'll probably have a tweak update soon!
D I S N E Y 8 May, 2017 @ 2:30am 
So a little bit of feedback from me, You may have already heard it though.

I think the trinket shows up very often, On Youtube check out Lytebringer, he recently done a video showing off some new trinket spawning mechanics that seem to work good.

Also, I never got to use an active item whilst holding the trinket as it would drain it every room, if i was lucky, two rooms, making it really only useful for 1 bar charge items, Maybe i am missing something though?

Also, the noise, i like it, but way too loud, especially for headphone users haha.

Aside from all of that i appreciate you making these ideas, and its a great idea.

No biggy at all, a little jarring when they reroll themselves but otherwise work perfectly. thanks again for bringing peoples ideas to life!
Merlo  [author] 7 May, 2017 @ 10:43am 
There is a chance, since I had to make my own function to spawn in trinkets, so it might be a little bugged. I hope not too much!
CoryyJ 7 May, 2017 @ 10:39am 
is it just me or ive seen reguar trinkets drop and when i came back into the room it rolled into this trinket then when i came back it rolled into the burnt d4? either way, great work with these!

Oh by the way,forgot to mention both items can only be found on secret rooms or shops and are,obviously,really rare.
Tritonis  [author] 7 May, 2017 @ 6:43am 
Haha, it's fun, I like the concept !
!The Real Golden Frog! 7 May, 2017 @ 5:43am 
Great!
Because I have a rather simple,but interesting idea.
I have thought of these 2 passive items:

Four Leafed Clover
"Luck is on your side!"

Maximizes your luck
Has the PHD effect(better pills)

Fake Clover
"A www,it's fake."

Drops your luck as low as it can go
Anti-PHD effect(worse pills)

But here is the thing...
these 2 items look exactly the same.
You don't know which is the real one and which is the fake one.
So it's a gamble that can either be amazing or terrible for you.

Feel free to make any changes if you actually decide to put these 2 items into the game.

P.S. When you grab one clover the other one disappears from the item pool,Im not sure if you can do that though...
Merlo  [author] 7 May, 2017 @ 1:58am 
Sure, I'll read every suggestion wherever I find them!
!The Real Golden Frog! 7 May, 2017 @ 12:38am 
So mod creator,do you take suggestions from the comment section of your mods?
Merlo  [author] 6 May, 2017 @ 4:18am 
Thanks for the nice words everyone, really appreciate them :D

Also give some love to our newer trinket, the charred die! https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=920085112

Excellent stuff ;w;:isaac:
Merlo  [author] 5 May, 2017 @ 10:08pm 
Sure, go ahead!
powerup1 5 May, 2017 @ 9:42pm 
oi, is it alright if i made my item suggestions here?
Merlo  [author] 5 May, 2017 @ 10:45am 
I'm looking into all the ideas, the more complex ones will come a bit later but I'll do my best ;) before isaac modding I had a bit of coding skills (but fairly, not much), I mainly self taught myself LUA looking at other people's mod and working on the genesis+ mod I've had the occasion to meet wonderful people that got me to understand stuff better :D
Mlemi 5 May, 2017 @ 9:18am 
Oh, it's you! I saw your post on Reddit and wondered, how will you inform on the progress of making those mods. Glad I was lucky and found your first mod on Steam. Cant wait for the rest of them, and who knows, maybe mine too (Manifestation).

May I ask, how did you learn LUA?
Merlo  [author] 5 May, 2017 @ 6:39am 
Thanks for the nice words!
Lizarb 5 May, 2017 @ 5:58am 
I like the item and the idea for community made items. Very good job!
