No cheats allowed. But is it necessary?
I have a question. Why cant i cheat in this mod? I mean why would u block the possibility to cheat in custom lobby for solo players? Principles or wat? I'll try to explain why i want cheats being allowed in this mod.
First of all I like to explore this map. I want to find out what all bosses do. Everything about there mechanics. What equipment should i have when i go on this certain boss or in this certain location. I want to find the best progression for quests. I want to try different sets and weapons. And do this with all the characters. And i know about stuff on pastebin and advices here in this section... But can u imagine how much time this takes? One playtrough of this mod takes more then one and a half of an hour...
I love this map so dont get me wrong. Cause that's why i want to have cheats - to save my time without quiting playing this mod! I know that ruins explorer feeling or something like this. But i dont need it. There a lot of people that dont need it and still want to play this mod. I want to get fun from saving my time without quiting this gamemod. And i dont loose fun when i can skip an opportunity to fail solo runs 10 times in a row. By failing i mean not geting goals that i wanted to get.
Is it possible that u gonna allow to cheat for solo players? Or at least explain why is it so necessary to prevent cheating in custom lobbies for solo playthroughs?
Sorry for my english. It's not my native language.

The likely reason for preventing cheating is the leaderboards. It'd be easy to just cheat in impossible mode and get to saint level and destroy the top times.

My friend and I are currently optimizing an impossible run to try to get on the leaderboards; it would be really annoying if the leaderboards didn't mean anything.


As for figuring out the map, you can still do that. I know exactly what items I need to kill any of the bosses, I know the best timings for when I need to be doing certain things, and I know when a run is already dead and warrants a reset.

Yes, it takes a lot of time to do a run. The current record for impossible is a bit over 2 hours. You'll quickly discover that an optimal run requires you to manage so many things at once that you won't even notice the time passing. In fact, time will pass too quickly, and you'll be wishing you had more time to get things done before the damn rubik wave hits.

Oh... This makes a lot of sense. I was not aware of leaderboards. I guess thank u! I got the answer )
And about time thingy. Its not about noticing time. Its about saving my actual time ) But still thaks!

What a joke. If you want to cheat so bad just go and recreate the map and edit it so you can. You don't need the exploration feel? What do yout hink you're going to use the cheats for? To explore obviously. You clearly stated you want to explore. You just want to have an easy way to feel good. It's simple, the creator can allow cheats and you'll play for maybe a few hours. You beat it, you stop playing. Or maybe a few run throughs at best with multiples. Or...he can not enable cheats and you're forced to suck it up and play it, or not play. It's a risk, but I'm sure with current stats I'm sure the creator can safely assume the map is fine without the cheats.

Leaderboards is also true, I just wanted to point out his obvious hypocrisy.

On the left hand side, there's a tab that expands to let you see leaderboards. I'm not sure how accurate they are, or when they update.


Also, after a certain point, luck is far more valuable than skill in this game.
