Implemented ModCompat

This refers to compatibility that's included just with this mod, and will not be an exhaustive list of every mod that implements this.

To-Do/Issues

  • Mithrix Scepter
  • CaptainBustedAirstrike support:
    • Currently it uses the reduced cooldown from the standard alt airstrike.
  • Further improvements to scepters(?)
  • Transformation Notification shows before the pickup notification for the subsequent Scepter

For Devs

  • Adding a ScepterReplacer to a character that already has an existing ScepterReplacer for that slot and variant will replace it.
    • This change allows developers that modify or outright change existing skills to have their own Scepter skill for existing characters.
  • All icons for Scepter Skills in this mod are now publicly accessible. See the static class Assets.SpriteAssets.
