Will you continue updating her?

Please update items to work with the new patch!

:(

i want this lil shadow as character

Mind updating this for the new patch that Klei released? You can take a look at what "Goat Slice" did with his "Reign of Runts" mod for guidance, since he is the only one who has updated their character mod so far.
Favourite food, new strings on character select and so on?

If she BREEDS, SHE'S A THOOOOOOOOT!!!!!

"All Wamen are QWEENS"

"If she BREEDS, SHE'S A THOOOOOOOOT!!!!!"

Still excited for whenever you get to updating it. Still my favorite character, even though I haven't really played much at all recently. =D

@Backup4now
Shria has a sort of calmed state whenever she's in a chilly room, and is in too much focus to have things that shake that focus in that calmed, cold state, like blocking.

It would also have her use Thermal Stones during Winter. Without one, her main trick would be stripped away from her and would have to resort to different ways to get what she needs.

@DarakuTenshi
I can see the reasoning behind the damage resistance and reading capabilities. However, a 10% reduction is not actually enough to save Shira from shadow monsters; it still takes the same amount of hits to kill her from 100-0, and it would be countered by the bonus damage taken.

Assuming these were enough to buff her, one of her main intended weaknesses was that she could easily be sneak-attacked or ganged up on while insane, turning her main strength into a weakness in certain conditions, mostly conditions where she faces monsters or is caught at night.

What was the thought process behind the cold-related sanity changes?

May I throw an few suggestions?

Increase damage resistance against Shadow Beasts by 10% (Having dealt with these fellas, surely Shira would have raised up some resistance towards them)

Unable to lose sanity upon reading (Shira is from an age of technology, after all)

15% Bonus damage taken and unable to lose sanity when near cold flames or when carrying more than 2 Ice (got to have some kind of drawback more than just the reduced damage)

@Seth
I'm glad you enjoyed the mod, but making things for PvP is outside of my scope. As someone who doesn't partake in PvP, there's no way I'd be able to balance it, let alone code-monkey my way into making it work properly.

can u make her turret can attack player pls? i want it as a base guarding turret, very nice mod indeed

w e e b

OK thanks for the information

Yay, I love you =D

@DEXTER9029
If any ranged attacks are added in the future, they would be in the form of placeable objects, not something the player would wield on their own.

in the future will you add a ranged weapon like a shadow canon or something like that?

@Nomeka
When I return to working on this mod, more placeable objects such as what you suggest are the first thing I'd look into.

I love her. She fits my preferred palystyle quite well. A support, with a focus on base defence. I was playing with a friend, and I had her do allt he hunting and stuff, while I stayed at base building the walls and rooms and stuff. I also had Chara's knife from an Undertale character mod, which increased Sanity-drain, so that was a good combo.

Keep up the great work. Maybe add more special base-defense type craftables to her. Walls that slowly regrow over time, maybe?

i've been playing with her for quite a while now and i LOVE her im mostly her or black rock shooter (i know im a weeb) but you could say i'm a shira main

I just wish she had few more uses for the shadow essense.

Quite old as in she possibly over 100 years old due to "cosmetic gene modification" and still look young! I like this lore. Skyrim had a lot of 3 digit age nords, so this works. Whatever pure human mix with Parent treatment she has, She works well against the shadows than any character I've played. 10/10 don't starve again!

higgity heck you mean "quite old" she dosen't look old at all

M E M E B R A S I L E I R O

S e x y

she looks interesting wwww let me see

weeb

thanks, i will see if it works right away!

Fixed the fire staff bug, and hopefully any other structure-target items.

heyy. i found a bug.... it really annoys me. when i was using this mod in an offline server, i came across this place and long story short a fire staff got in my hands. and right the moment that i tried to light something on fire, it INSTANTLY bugged out and requested i removed the mod or exit. can you do something about it? i dont know if this happens when you make it yourself. please fix this!~

"(what you actually care about)" u get it m8

Ahh yes the balancing... ^^ i totaly forgot about it because i play alone and just enjoy her so much. I just thought it would fit her perfectly.
And without armor she is REALLY fragile. so maybe that counts ^^

@Fidulus - While that might be cool, the character is already borderline overpowered compared to the base cast, as she has several upsides but no real hindering weaknesses... besides the low health and possibility of getting mobbed.

I love this character. What a great work.
I added a bit of greenish nightvision because of her tactical-eye. Maybe thats something you wanna implement?

Great character mod! The only thing that bugs me is her sideways animation with her tail. It bugs me enough to make me change her camera angle instead of walking sideways.

very hard:D

well you got me there. fair enough. keep up the good work. it really is a good mod.

After doing some additional testing, I have come to the conclusion that a well-played Shira (playing solo) can expect to get 120 spare Nightmare Fuel in about 20 days, including any fuel spent on bombs or skewers.

A single Knightmare Statue surrounded in walls can take out three hounds by itself (6 shots each). The only alternative in the base game is the Houndius Shootius, which is non-renewable, hard to obtain, and once it's gone, it's gone for good. Eventually, a base fortified with Knightmare Statues will become completely invincible from the sheer quantity of them (as there is no limit to how many can exist in a world).

Considering these factors, I believe that the current iteration of the Knightmare Statue is both at a reasonable cost, and at a reasonable power level. Let me know if this is not agreeable.

120 nightmare fuel seems like a bit much for a single turret. no matter how good she is at getting fuel.

As of this moment, Shira can now build a turret-like structure out of huge amounts of Nightmare Fuel.

I must say this is interesting. I cant wait to see more :)

This looks really well-made. But it sounds kinda OP.

this looks nice
