I read liquid reaction tank as liquid recreation tank. :SBHorse:

funny enough it was good luck, found a completely different chest with the same 2500, so it was a rarity thing, weird stuff, thanks for being so quick with it

maybe it was just good luck?
any case i've already tossed the patch, should be a more vanilla now
Treeanta 20 Nov, 2024 @ 9:16pm 
after some more testing ive opened other chests with normal loot inside, it was just that "Pod chest" i opened that had that much money inside, still dont know if thats every pod chest though
Medik  [author] 20 Nov, 2024 @ 8:51pm 
okay yeah that's a bit much for a starter planet lmao
i think i'm just gonna toss it
Treeanta 20 Nov, 2024 @ 8:49pm 
i had intended to keep things for the most part vanilla while patching some holes that go against common sense and without changing any core features like loot generation, but it was the first and only chest i had opened on the starting planet and it seemed to be a bit unbalanced, im not sure if every chest spawns with that or not, but if thats a default value in game it might be generating in the wrong chests and wrong difficulties
Medik  [author] 20 Nov, 2024 @ 8:15pm 
i assumed it was intentional so i kept it as a patch. not sure if there's anything wrong with that?
if it's that bad i may just remove it entirely

I saw the 2500 pixel in a chest comment here, so i knew where to go because it happened to me, im not running any other generic in game improvement mods or anything large, just niche highly specific mods, nothing that changes loot pools, but i found the said 2500 pixels in a chest, is this intentional? or not fixed?
Medik  [author] 1 May, 2024 @ 1:55pm 
can't say i've played it, but there seems to be a lotta overlap looking thru the files
probably better off just running Betabound without this
BITney, The Pixel Heister 1 May, 2024 @ 4:06am 
Is this compatible with Betabound?
