Modern Companions

Modern Companions 3.62

Recruitment and configuration

• Added configurable recruitment requirements through recruitmentRequirements.
• Requirements use companion_id|item_id|count rows and support:
  • Multiple required items per companion
  • * wildcard defaults
  • Vanilla and modded registry IDs
  • Random requirements for companions without overrides
• Recruitment requirements now synchronize and persist as arbitrary-length lists while remaining compatible with older saves.
• Customized allFoods lists are now authoritative for healing, favorites, and recruitment. The default list still automatically discovers safe foods from other mods.
• Added a complete configuration reference in config/Explanation.md.
• Fixed recruitment messages so food names resolve correctly for clients and modded items.

Cleric combat and support

• Clerics now prioritize:
  1. Healing their owner
  2. Healing other companions
  3. Healing themselves
  4. Firing holy spark projectiles
  5. Melee combat as a final fallback
• Holy sparks use holy-colored particle effects and deal double damage to undead.
• Clerics keep their distance while healing or using ranged attacks, then close in when forced into melee.
• Melee and magic projectile kills now allow Clerics to gain combat experience.
• Cleric support spells and holy sparks cost 6 Mana instead of 10.
• Mana regeneration is slightly faster for all magical companions.
• Clerics no longer spend Mana on unrelated utility spells before healing priorities are handled.
