Chromium-BetterBoxes

Description
Better Boxes
Changes the way the drop system works to allow new boxes to spawn. The scaling mirrors the shop rarities scaling[brotato.wiki.spellsandguns.com], but with an additional offset of +5 waves added on (Since boxes are rare in general). While this won't have a massive impact on the rarity of the boxes it does mean that with the right amount of luck some runs could get a good kick start.

Functionality of the boxes is similar to the legendary box. The legendary box only gives its own tier, so in relation to that the corresponding added tiers only give loot from there tier.

Config
Location: %appdata%/Brotato/mod_config/BetterBoxes.json

If the file doesn't exist make sure you've at least launched the game once with this mod installed. If it still doesn't exist resubscribe and then launch the game (You may have been on an older version if that's the case).

Version: Don't touch this setting, it exist so that the file will auto replace itself in future updates

Global
  • wave_offset : Controls the rarity chance of the boxes, in general higher number = higher rarity Default: 5
  • remove_box_per_wave_limit: Removes the diminishing return effect of collecting multiple boxes Default: False
  • luck_multiplier: Multiplies the luck recognized by the box creation code only, this will result in more boxes dropping if raised to a higher value than 1. This will not increase the rarity of the boxes however Default: 1

You do not get grey boxes or red items out of red boxes if you are using a mod that interferes with scaling per wave.
To be more specific, *any* mod that removes the endless mode scaling will prevent this mod from functioning at all.

I wouldn't be surprised if easier difficulty mods also have this effect.

Unless it's been updated since the last time I've used it I also got some of the vanilla green boxes along with a mountain of grey boxes.

I have a feeling most people only come to comment when random chance really screws them over. The third box I got was a blue one. Also the drop chances aren't different than in vanilla because you always get a bunch if you level luck.
