Here's a trimmed down version of a table I made to help newer players get gear in MP. Made on Origin but hopefully it works with steam version also? It works in private or public games but you must be host. Also it is
really only designed for any of the castle maps...eg the one with the dragon flying around and
ONLY on Nightmare or HeartBreaker. Using it on other maps is ok if you don't want loot just be sure to uncheck the 'Switch Vases' option to help prevent potential crashes!
Chain goes as follows: Wait for area to fully load > Give players SuperPowers > Wait for mob kill> Alter XP > Alter vases > Start killing new mobs
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PEOPLE, BE NICE!
Options are as follows
Primary Script (Enable this to do most of the work, pretty much required for everything else)
Apply SuperPowers (When a players joins it alters a bunch of attributes to give players superpowers. Nope, flying isn't one of them!
)
AutoKill New Mobs After XP (This will kill newly spawned mobs after the first kill but will not kill existing ones until you attack them)
Increase XP (Because you could be killing mobs using the above option the XP can be altered to great amounts as well to avoid making the run useless in that manner)
Switch Vases (Only functions on the Castle Map because...well, I'm lazy.
After the first kill it attempts to switch the vases to issue Loot as if you just killed a dragon instead of the standard measly sum of gold. This results in more gold AND and at least one item for every vase looted. eg good for farming Hakkons on NM)
Castle Vases (Optional, does not enable ones below and is not required to function. These are simply extra options related to a specific function from the Primary Script and the SwitchToNugGold script will not work without the Primary Script being enabled)
DragonLoot (This is a manual Pointer to the vases on CASTLE maps and can optionally be set up to use a hotkey so that you can switch vases over to DragonLoot)
Nug (This is a manual Pointer to the vases on CASTLE maps and can optionally be set up to use a hotkey so that you can switch vases over to Nug Loot)
SwitchToNugGold (This is like the manual option above but instead tells the Primary Script to switch vases to Nug Loot. This means even more gold but no items...eg as if you killed a nug instead of a dragon)
Lobotomize Mobs (As implied this make everything pretty darn stupid, heck they may even walk into a random corner or off the map. Useful if you're brand n00b trying to run HeartBreaker without a physical immunity amulet though with SuperPowers this is nothing but a bonus to avoid frustration and slow downs.)
Remove Drops Screen (This is mainly only useful if you don't want to bother with the loot screen after the game to see what you got...eg maybe you have everything already and you're just helping newer players get some loot.
)
!*AutoKill Party After XP*! (This is what I refer to as 'Suicide Runs' You go into the map and kill a mob. Instead of triggering the Autokill of mobs or altering of vases it kills the party instead. Useful for quick leveling..eg maybe you want to catch up to a friend without burdening them. I expect this will get abused but what can you do?)
!*Kill All Humans*! (Mainly for use during normal runs when a door or zone get bugged out and you can't continue. Instead of leaving to transfer the host kill everyone and end the game early and simply start a fresh one. Or just to be mean I guess? /cry
)
