Allows you to set the level of enemies, the frequency of rare creatures, and some other elements of difficulty independently during character creation, to make the game as easy or hard as you like.

If you make the game at least as hard as a vanilla difficulty setting, you qualify for that difficulty's achievements. If you make the game easier than normal in any way, you're set to Easy mode.

This doesn't let you customize: The increased chance enemies have to notice you at higher difficulties.

This mod will be incompatible with other mods that change rare creature spawning or re-arrange the character creation screen.

Known Problem: You cannot use the 'restart character' option when dying, you have to go back to the menu.

Superloads

• mod/dialogs/birther.lua to add the new options.
• mod/class/Actor.lua to allow the easy-mode status resistance
• mod/class/NPC.lua to allow the custom enemy talent/health scaling and fixedboss buffs.
• mod/class/Game.lua to change stair-wait-on-kill and zone scaling
• mod/class/GameState.lua so backup guardians scale correctly.

This addon changes the Rod of Asphyxiation from single target to aoe for faster killing. Everything else is unchanged.

Adds a new difficulty in between Nightmare and Insane to help prepare for the latter. If you've beaten standard Nightmare a few times though, you'll probably want to just try Insane and see if you like it.

Removes start scumming and drowning and replaces them with rebalance changes.

Full details in discussion thread.

planned v5 - remove all artifact generation from shops, figure out how to add phy/men wilds

v4 - added steamsaw/guns to old man

v3 - added dispersion (last hope), track (derth), burrow (shatur) and short staff (angolwen) to shops

v2 - rebalanced the old man randart power/egos, now equivalent to what would usually drop from a boss on the relevant difficulties, insane players get 2 tier 3s, madness get 2 tier 5s

v1.0.0
Places 'Marson's All-Seeing Eye' in your character's inventory which gives telepathy:all at +10 range when carried (20 range total under normal conditions).

I created this so I could experiment with Madness without the need for a crazy amount of scouting. This is an extreme solution to scouting tedium as it also sees through invisibility and stealth as well. I may come up with a middle-ground solution after mucking with this a bit.
