Ideas / Balance Overhaul

« on: September 22, 2020, 09:20:02 PM »

This is a thread for collecting and debating ideas over balance proposals and concepts, especially stemming from discussions on discord.

I'll provide a summary of suggestions we spoke about on discord and maybe add some more of my own:

Cave-ins

Simplify to two rules: walls don't cave-in, and dirt can cave-in at any time (checked per turn and per move)
Mostly a player nerf because digging is extremely strong, but some flexibility is offered regarding walls
Makes digging in caves much worse, probably a good thing as it trivialises caves

Legs

10% accuracy malus and evasion bonus per point of momentum (caps at 30% or 40% with reaction control)
Accuracy malus uses movement acc malus, so it doesn't affect melee attacks
Only relevant when moving with non-overweight legs
Moving with legs on previous turn locks in malus for current turn
Bonus only takes effect during enemy actions when previous turn you moved with legs

This makes legs more of a mobility-focused combat prop compared to treads. It also makes melee leg build much more viable.

Remove self-damage possibility when kicking
Players rarely kick because self-damage is bad. This would make the ability more fun

Overweight penalty

Increase somewhat for treads (maybe wheels too?)
Support should be relevant in every build, and treads are a bit strong right now

Lightpack

Make it disable the effects of other equipped storage units
This encourages early and midgame usage, and weakens it somewhat in lategame

Matter and energy storage utilities

Make it increase maximum capacity when equipped but not store anything when unequipped or dropped
'Drop on floor' strategy is extremely strong
Possibly reduce coverage to compensate for the change

RIF alert reduction

Change progression from 25/50/75% to 25/40/50%
Very strong if you get lucky enough to stack these powers

Exiles alert chip

Reduce alert gain by 10%
Makes it more useful but not super strong. Can also be shot off.

Cave walls

All cave walls are earth
Fixes the advantage tiles has over ascii

Strategies / Chronowheel Uses *Spoilery*

« on: February 14, 2019, 03:30:24 AM »

Brainstorm uses for the new Chronowheel. Good and bad. Not ranked within tiers.

Tier 1 - Best uses:

- Two attempts (or a freeroll) at killing DM for hackware (can combine with DC below)
- Peek at DC for branch layout
- Peek at CRM in S7/Q/A0 for AA identification and locations
- Peek at Armory + Lab to check for favourable loot (can combine with laserdance below)
- Peek at SGEMP data in Access before dropping SGEMP and taking SW

Tier 2 - Good alternatives:

- Two attempts at favourable core expander result
- Two attempts at one-shotting MC/Arch with ST(s)
- Two attempts at killing Zh
- Freeroll lab laserdance without A7 core
- Freeroll defeating MC phase 2 fast enough
- Enter a floor such as Access and obtain rapid recon (maybe by spamming tele; maybe combine with IRs to extend effect)

Strategies / The Speedrunning Thread

« on: August 19, 2018, 12:46:12 AM »

Figured it's a good idea to centralise all information, links, discussion, everything to do with speedrunning into one thread.

« on: March 10, 2018, 06:19:14 PM »

This week's seed: TeslaHellfireCoil



The Weekly Seed is open to anyone, and we encourage you to share your experiences, stories, and tactics over the course of your run.

The rules are as follows:

• The Weekly Seed begins from the date this thread is posted and lasts about seven days.
• Make sure you are running the correct version of Cogmind (see thread subject).
• Enter the seed and abort your current game to initiate the seed (more details are below).
• Verify you are not running the tutorial and that the screenshots below match your game.
• Play through the game once. This is a friendly event and we are all honest people.
• When finished, post your scoresheet here (it should be the newest file in /scores) and any other screenshots/stories/strategies you wish to share with the community.
• If you want to share details about the seed or your approach, make sure you use spoiler tags.
• Due to the spoilerific nature of this thread, be sure to avoid reading details about the seed if you haven't completed your run.
• As Cogmind now has multiple difficulty modes and challenges which will affect the world generation, by default it is assumed everyone is playing on regular difficulty with no challenges enabled. You are free to use whichever settings you wish, but if you intend on discussing it, be sure to specify what difficulty/challenges you're using!

Good luck and have fun!
