About This File

This mod is available on the Steam workshop! Downloading it from there means it automatically updates when I release new versions.

Adds a few Summons (and a building) to accompany you in your travels. Please keep in mind that you are playing a MOD made by a fan, so please report any bugs you find on this page.

A special thanks to @WrathOf for providing crucial scripts and tools to making this work.

What it does

General tips

  • Ctrl+LeftClick on a summon to attack it (it will fight back)
  • Summons will not attack bees that belong to beeboxes
  • Summons will re-bond with the player if the player dies, is resurrected and then goes near the summon

Follower Sit Command (built in collaboration with @WrathOf)

This sub-mod allows you to right-click any summons (not Knights) you have called forth and they will stop following you around. They will stay at or near the location where you told them to stay. You can later on right-click on them again to make them follow you again.

Arouse Chaotic (Buildable) Wormhole

http://forums.kleientertainment.com/downloads.php?do=file&action=screenshot&screenshotid=414&d=1364407472

After building a Prestihatitator, you can arouse a Chaotic Wormholes for 1 Red Gem, 2 Nightmare Fuel and 1 Pigskin. Chaotic Wormholes work like normal wormholes, but instead of travelling to a pre-determined wormhole, you will travel to a randomly selected Chaotic Wormhole. Therefore you need to build two or more Chaotic Wormholes in different locations to use them. Even if you have 2 or more Chaotic Wormholes, there is always a chance that entering one will take you back to the one you just entered.

The same Sanity loss is incurred as you would suffer from a normal Wormhole.

Has the spec for the skeleton changed? Costs less to summon, but doesn't seem to allow me to give it a weapon (the give prompt is there, but the skeleton doesn't accept the weapon).

Specs are the same. Which weapon are you giving it? Some weapons are limited, such as nightmare sword because the skeleton doesn't have sanity to use it.

It was just a spear, kept switching with whatever I had equipped in my hand slot, rather than equipping to the skeleton.

It should equip the spear for you, then run over and give it to the skeleton. I checked that it works in the latest version. Probably a mod compatability issue.

Suggestions:

 

clones/spooky scary skeleton's sanity drain is a bit toned down while they are holding torch/umbrella

 

hounds don't eat everything they see

 

chaotic wormholes don't spit you out at the same location

 

merms stop going after birds and making that REALLY annoying sound when doing so

All those are intentional downsides. They are what gives the summons character. Make them more than just fighting machines. Why do you want to remove them?

Great mod! Makes the game a lot more enjoyable. Anyway, is there a list of mods which this isn't compatible with?
