Passive Skill Tree Mob Kill Points

Mod Overview

This addon extends the functionality of the Passive Skill Tree mod by providing players with skill points for eliminating mobs. The system is fully customizable through a configuration file, allowing fine-tuning of the point acquisition mechanics.

Main Features

Upon first entering a world, players can receive an initial amount of points set in the configuration. The primary method of earning points is by defeating mobs. The number of points awarded depends on the target's maximum health:

• Mobs with low health (up to 20 HP) provide points divided by the lowhp coefficient
• Mobs with high health (above 20 HP) provide points divided by the highhp coefficient

For example, with highhp = 15 and killing a mob with 100 HP, you'll receive 100/15 = 6.66 points, rounded up to 7.

Configuration Settings

The mod creates a configuration file skilltree-mkp.json with the following parameters:

{
  "lowhp": 0,
  "highhp": 30,
  "defaultpoints": 0,
  "multiplayer": false,
  "rampup": true,
  "DefaultRampUpValue": 20
}

Additional Functions

The rampup feature gradually increases the threshold for high-health mobs after each such mob elimination. This creates a progressively challenging system.

For optimal performance, it's recommended to set the "Maximum skill points" value in the skilltree-common.toml file to 588 to avoid the limitation of 85 available skills. You can also disable purchasing points with experience by setting "Enable experience exchange for skill points" to false.

Important Notes

All numerical values in the configuration must include a decimal part, even if they are whole numbers (e.g., 1 → 1.0, 0 → 0.0). The exception is multipliers for individual mobs.

If you encounter issues loading into a world after updating the mod, it's recommended to delete the configuration file and restart the game.
