[DEV] Mod Release: More Info Shattered Pixel Dungeon (lemmy.world)

I've always felt there was a lot of info that the game could specify, but doesn'tt - how long does a potion of haste last? How much faster is a scimitar compared to a sword? How bad is 1 point of strength penalty? How much damage does a crossbow gain per upgrade? How much shielding a shielding potion gives?

This mod adds all these answers.

No information you aren't supposed to know (like un-IDed item effects) is added, this isn't a cheating mod.
No gameplay changes. At all. Up to runs on the same seed being identical between this mod and ShPD. I plan to keep updating this mod to keep up with ShPD's updates and guarantee there will never be any gameplay changes in the future either. This is just a parallel version of ShPD for people who like knowing more numbers but don't feel like opening a wiki every time they need to remember something like an augmentation stone's effect.

The mod hasn't been tested too well because of the immense amount of descriptions it affects, so if any descriptions break or don't fit on the screen or reveal info that you should have no way of knowing, contact me.

I disagree with 2.5x fewer/less not making sense, "3 times less" is a completely normal expression in the English language, I'm not changing that.

The description also doesn’t mention what the default speed is.

Every un-IDed item's description mentions how many uses it needs, and you can open the items page of the journal to see it. I see no reason to put it again in the talent description.

I just thought it'd be nice to put info where its contextual. I, for one, did not expect the journal to contain that info, and it's common to not have unidentified items when taking tier 1 talents, but I understand.

As for "3 times less" making sense, I'm not the only one who thinks it's nonsensical or confusing at best. Just look at these replies to this question about it:
