An addon that breaks down big pickups into smaller ones to avoid wasting precious resources. Gone are the days of wasting 19 shells after picking up a huge shell box!
The concept is identical to a well-known addon called Smart Scavenger - stumbling upon a huge pickup that would otherwise overfill your maximum amount for said supply will now break it down into smaller, bite-sized pickups to avoid wasting them.
Made for: V22 beta 3.7
General compatibility: Good (although it disregards randomized pickups option for big pickups)
Source port requirements: None
Performance impact: hopefully minimal
Compatible with existing saves: No
HOW TO USE THE ADDON
Unzip and load the .pk3 file after Brutal Doom. Big ammo pickups and medikits will be affected by this addon.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If the file does not work, here's some things for you to try first:
- Update your source port (gzdoom or zandronum (that includes its betas!) on pc ONLY, other source ports and platforms are not explicitly supported)
*gzdoom 4.11 appears to have trouble loading some addons. I advise against using those versions.
- Use the explicitly supported version of Brutal Doom v22. The addons are made for the specified version ONLY.
- Use a mod loader or a .bat file for proper load orders, DO NOT Drag & drop.
- UNZIP the file first! Don't load the .zip itself, load the .pk3 that's inside of it.
- Make sure the file is loaded AFTER the supported version of Brutal Doom v22.
- Disable every other extra addons you have loaded - load only BD with this addon.
If all of the above fails, feel free to add me on discord (dox778) for additional troubleshooting, moddb sucks for that.
If you read the whole list and still insist on using comments, start your comment with "Potato!", otherwise your comment will be ignored.
- The addon is NOT an official part of v22 nor will it be explicitly supported by the developer team.
- Do NOT submit bug reports regarding v22 while using addons.
- Any bug reports/suggestions regarding the addon itself are free to be left in the comments.
PERMISSIONS
Feel free to use and modify the file however you wish! It'd be appreciated if any modified use contained all the appropiate credits, however.
