Vizikk’s Hoarder Mod
If you tend to hoard tons of items, and feel the base game doesn’t satisfy your hoarding needs, this Mod is for you.
General information
Vizikk’s Hoarder Mod (VH) is built for those who tend to want to keep anything and everything, for whatever reason. Most additions/features/changes will be ones I would want to see come to the mod first and foremost. The mod doesn’t necessarily stick to just modifying config(s) but rather adding new effects and/or things likewise. The mod in it’s current state is fairly simple but I have plenty of plans for the future and supporting it for the foreseeable future.
Please keep in mind, this might as well be a Beta. There is no need for any additional Localization. Any added effect will use the games Localization, if this changes in the future you will know. The mod was made and tested around the Gamepass version so if my workarounds for the jank, dont work, please report it!
Current Changes:
Every Armor has a Armor Class [A,B,C,D,X]
Every Armor now has a base increase to Carry Weight based on Class (these do stack with Upgrades)
Added custom effects for each Class(s) for future proofing
Any mod that adds Effects to Armor will conflict with this mod. (Should be fixed as of 0.1.2)
Installation

FAQ
Q: Will this mod work with the Gamepass Version?
A: Yes. As I am using it, I would imagine so. There should be no issue’s with Gamepass and likely wont ever have Gamepass exclusive issues. If any issue’s were to arise (based on platform) it would more than likely be the Steam version since I am developing using the Gamepass Version of S2.
Q: Will installing this mod work Mid-Save?
A: Yes. It was tested in this environment so it should be okay to do so. (However I will always recommend a New Save)
Q: Having Localization Issues?
A: There is no additional Localization and as of 0.1.x it exclusively uses default Localization. If you are having issues it may just be referencing, so please report it.
If you encounter conflicts with other mods, make sure you either modify the load order by adding another “z” in the file-name, or merging what
you want and what you can. As of now there is no Official Support with other mods, but that will likely come.
