Features
0. Configurations
All of the items/tiles in this mod can be disabled via config. You can also make autopainters not spend money(off by default)
1. Auto Injector, Auto Arena and Auto Station
(autoinjector sprite)
Auto Injector automatically uses buff potions that you inserted via right clicking the injector while grabbing a stack of them with your cursor.
When it uses an item, it will continue to provide the bonus for the default duration of that item.
It has "smart-injection" which means it will only grant the buff effect and use its duration when it is necessary.
That is, if an effect can't be applied to you because you have an actual buff/effect that is either same or not compatible with the effect, preventing abuse and wasted duration.
For example, if you have any flask buff active, any flask effect will be suspended.
For example, if you have holy wrath(from the Calamity mod) buff active, wrath potion effect will be suspended.
Auto Arena provides arena effects(campfire, heart lantern etc.) that can be unlocked by inserting 16 arena items into it.
It has "smart-aura" which means it will only grant effect when it is necessary.
That is, if you already have that arena effect active, it will not grant the bonus second time, preventing abuse.
Auto Station provides right click buff station effects(sharpening station, ammo box etc.) that can unlocked by inserting the station item.
It has "smart-suppport" which means it will only grant effect when it is necessary.
That is, if you already have that station effect active, it will not grant the bonus second time, preventing abuse.
It has to be right-clicked without any item to be active for 10 minutes. All effects will be activated at once.
They are sold by the mechanic but you can change it to be sold by the arms dealer with the mod config.
These buff items went through a lot of testing and will probably handle any mods that add buff items just fine.
Do note that this doesn't have ANY kind of hardcoding besides vanilla effects. All buff data is generated at loading time dynamically.
