General

Functionality

This mod for YellowAfterLife's Nuclear Throne Together adds hands for every single character with every single weapon along with all gun-toting enemies, much like Enter the Gungeon. The hands have custom coordinates created by me for every weapon and they use the color of the current race and skin as well.

Mod Compatibility

Guns

How does the game know where to put the hands for the player's current weapon(s)? Hands Mod matches the player's current weapon name(s) to the name in guns.txt and pulls the correlating coordinates for both hands from that same file. On each line of the text file, there is the first hand's x and y, the second hand's x and y, and the gun's name- in that order.

On a new line in the guns.txt file, add your weapon in the following format: 

(Please note that the Hands Mod uses the WEAPON NAME, not the weapon mod FILE NAME) 

 x1,y1,x2,y2,name

Say you made a weapon mod "coolgun" where you named the weapon "cool gun" and you wanted to make it work with Hands Mod. If you wanted the first hand 3 pixels to the right and 4 pixels down and the second hand 8 pixels to the right and 2 pixels up, you'd want to format it as such:

3,4,8,-2,cool gun

If you are making a one-handed weapon, use -999 for x2 and y2 like so:

3,4,-999,-999,cool gun

Races

This is very similar to adding your own gun but perhaps a bit more complicated. How does the game know what color to use and how many hands to draw? Hands Mod matches the player's race to the name in races.txt and pulls the correlating data which is red, blue, and green values, skin name, whether the race dual wields or not, and the race's name- in that order. 

 On a new line in the races.txt file, add your race in the following format:

(Please note that the Hands Mod uses the RACE NAME, not the race mod FILE NAME) 

(Please also note that "dual" is a boolean value- 0 is not dual wielding, 1 is dual wielding)

r,g,b,skin,dual,name

Say you wanted to add one of blaac's fantastic skins from his skinpack to be used with Hands Mod- specifically his Eyes "Inspector" skin. You might format it as such:

201,209,222,inspector,0,eyes

Or perhaps you'd like to add his Steroids "Mimic" skin. You could format it like so:

 0,0,0,mimic,1,steroids
