Play as echo (?

Regions slowly becoming infected if you leave cysts laying around when you sleep

Wayyyy tankier Rot (being shredded by a drop wig is very common)

Please put a notice that if youre on controller, its RB (on an xbox controller) and the PS equivalent for the scavenger to swap items cuz it never said that anywhere

not really my problem, as scavenger's swap items is bound to a keybind that i didnt register

edit: its on map, my bad

Reward players more for the more cysts they have, but maybe limit the amount they can carry at once. It feels much more in theme with the rot to encourage consuming as much as possible in return for further cyst growth imo

1. display controls on the pause menu
2. make it easier for artificial to fit into pipes and corridors if possible
3. make it slightly easier for artificial to move through smaller/weaker patches of wormgrass

was not aware there was already a limit this stinks

what about lantern mice...no reason i just wanna be a cute lil mouse

sprobgik! GIVE MEH LIZOR AND MAH LIFE IS YOURS

so, while i was testing out the rot, i found it a little hard to control. most of it i think is just a given, and i over time i got used to most of it, but there's two ideas that stuck with me

1. when moving around, the cyst has a little too much momentum, making it easy to overshoot or just fumble where you want to go. i think a 'hold yourself up' toggle would do the trick here.
very simple example: if i have all my tendrils stuck to the floor for movement and press up, the cyst goes up, but when i let go of up the cyst falls immediately. what i mean by 'hold yourself up' here is when you let go of up with it toggled, the cyst tries to "idle" in the location it's in instead of immediately going limp and falling.

2. another movement thing: if, for example, i'm moving down a flat hallway by holding left or right and crawling, the tendrils will sort of hover above the floor unless i press down. this is moooostly fine, but it gave me trouble when i was climbing the wall, because its a little bit of a dance to get your tendrils where you want them to go... and the vultures don't exactly wait patiently for you to finish meddling with the controls lol.
i think having just a liiiittle bit of movement interpreting would fix this, where if the tendril is within a certain range of a stickable surface it goes ahead and auto-sticks when you let go of jump. with this solution, when moving down a flat hallway, the player wouldn't have to press down to stick their footholds when just holding left or right as long as they were close enough to the ground.



very very big apologies if any of this is already on the dev list or is already implemented, these are just the thoughts i had while playing. the rot is already very functional as is! these are mostly just quality-of-life suggestions. no matter if you implement these, it's still very fun!! thank you for the mod!!!

...i took so long that the mod updated while i was typing. no cyst limit is EXCELLENT. i will become the largest and bestest cancer, and make all the other long legs jealous.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS MOD

meow mod compat
i think the artificial should make some weird mechanical sounding hisses or something, rn they just meow like a normal scug

also pls make the artificial quieter my poor ears are suffering hearing the thing eat

please make predators like lizords afraid of rot when you big enough to eat them alive, because they just keep biting off parts of me when I try to eat them.

also please make submerged superstructer accessible to the rot
