the mod only focus on making more harder vanilla bosses....so "mod bosses" are not affected by this mod..so it must be compatible.

There's some severe bugginess with the old one's army when using GLHF. This message floods the chat (see the screenshot), mobs will only come out of the portals if you stand within a couple of tiles of them, and if certain players die to Betsy, she'll instantly despawn and the event will end. We weren't able to figure out why some people were able to die to her without triggering that glitch while others weren't. All of these bugs also occurred when using a perfectly flat arena without any water interference, not shown in the picture. All of these bugs were fixed after GLHF was removed from the server, so it seems to be the culprit

Just so you know, I'm currently doing a playthrough of Death Mode Calamity and tons I'd other mods, and this is a major part of the difficulty, along with Enemy Affixes. Great mod, and I don't hate you, I'm very happy that Terraria's most infamous challenge is much harder.

My friend and I have been playing a "vanilla +" style pack including this mod. Also we set 3x spawn rate. We've been facing Skeletron and the bones from his hands are a bit hard to see and dodge (partly because you fight him at night) maybe they could be fired a bit less frequently and travel a bit more slowly, but more importantly can they get some light added to them so they can be seen to be dodged? Really enjoying the changes otherwise so far.
Edit: Here's a thought if you want to make him throw something more "interesting" and are looking for ideas. Have him throw flaming skeletons. You can use the Hanging and Wall Skeleton decorations as the projectiles and apply fire particles to them.

Yeah the hands throwing bones is kinda lame. Maybe in the future I'll do some cooler changes but idk about rn.

Also just noticed the previously reported issue with the old one's army event. Staring at the source I see no reason why the Eye of Cthulhu would especially be a culprit. Either there's something wrong with the vanilla game's handling of that NPC ID or more likely it's just choosing that file at random because the Eye of Cthulu has the lowest NPC ID. It has to be some variable for player positioning that the event uses that shares variables with your code. Each of your AI files has code like this...
My completely amateur and uneducated guess is that some of those variables are shared with others in the code and need to be changed to random new names or it needs to be tucked away in an "if" to avoid interfering with something somewhere. I can help test if you like...
Edit: got to Fishron, the rain is ridiculous. Had to tone it down for our playthrough.
Code:
float Speed = 10;
Player P = Main.player[npc.target];
Vector2 vector8 = new Vector2(npc.position.X + (npc.width / 2), npc.position.Y + (npc.height / 2));
float rotation = (float)Math.Atan2(vector8.Y - (P.position.Y + (P.height * 0.5f)), vector8.X - (P.position.X + (P.width * 0.5f)));My completely amateur and uneducated guess is that some of those variables are shared with others in the code and need to be changed to random new names or it needs to be tucked away in an "if" to avoid interfering with something somewhere.

I'm not very good at coding, but I've managed to hack at it a bit and tweak some stuff to my preferences. I also seem to have fixed the errors with the Old One's Army invasion.
- Destroyer: 1.5x head damage from 2x
- Eye of Cthulhu, Golem, King Slime, Moonlord, Skeletron, Wall of Flesh, and Shadow Clones summoned by Lunitic Cultist: Moved targetting variables and timer inside npc.type condition (bug fix)
- Fishron: Moved timer inside npc.type condition, reduced rain width/scale/frequency and damage to 65 from 100
- Moonlord again: reduced lightning orb damage to 50 from 100 and slightly slowed added projectiles for more/less threat.
- Queen Bee: Moved timer inside npc.type condition
- Skeletron again: randomized bone throw frequency, reduced speed and overall frequency, doubled bone size
- Twins: tried to add healing effect mentioned... failed
- Made exclusively town npcs not immune to traps/lava as requested since it was easy and sensible.

Thanks, I probably wouldn't have done that myself lol. Don't worry about the healing effect for twins because I've already done it. I'm probably gonna change skeletron and golem because right now they're kinda lame.I'm not very good at coding, but I've managed to hack at it a bit and tweak some stuff to my preferences.

Zip contains mod file and source folder. Use/change as you will.

Two more things I realized after getting some sleep. 1. You don't mention that you have spawnrate set to x2 prehardmode and x3 in hardmode.... So I was actually playing 6x and 9x spawnrate XD. We beat it anyway, but the Lunar Potatoes were brutal to say the least.
2. Also, to fulfill @Kojiro_S request for vulnerable town npcs...
Code:
public override void SetDefaults(NPC npc)
{
npc.defense += npc.defense / 2;
npc.lifeMax += npc.lifeMax / 2;
npc.damage += npc.damage / 2;
npc.knockBackResist *= 1.5f;
npc.value *= 1.5f;
if (!npc.townNPC)
{
npc.lavaImmune = true;
npc.trapImmune = true;
}
}I'll edit my upload with that. Curious how you got the Twins health thing working as it was the only part that took me more than a couple minutes and I still didn't figure out after 2 hours. I'm decent at logic in general but have no proper knowledge of programming.

Any option to disable life regen on bosses? Eye of cthulu is unkillable in Overhaul because his "death animation" regenerates and comes after me, but it is invincible!

Hi, hate to bring this up like 8 months down the line, but would one of you consider putting the edited version by Freedbot up on the mod browser?
Not necessarily as an update, but perhaps a new release. It would make installing this mod in new modpacks far easier than searching this thread and post up to download it every time.
Also has anyone confirmed that the Old One's Army spawning glitch was caused by the timer variables? My new pack isn't set up quite yet so I can't check. (I mean, I could I guess, but I'm also lazy.) Some other mods have had that issue recently and I'm curious if that fix worked, because if so, it should definitely be shared around.

I've been getting back into this game recently so I've been thinking about just redoing this mod.

I'm remaking the mod and removed all of the old boss changes and I'm doing new changes. Right now I have it so that the destroyer is still a big boy but skeletron prime now randomly fires lasers while spinning when he has no arms and the twins instantly change to their second phase at 85%. I might do something else with the twins though.
Edit: Twins now become enraged when the other dies
The Destroyer has a laser airstrike instead of being a big boi

Obviously I already went as far as I could by putting attaching the code to a comment. Any more than that would be stepping on Caseratis's toes pretty rudely. Glad to hear you're working on it again btw. Don't forget to integrate with the new tModloader in game mod settings menu.
