So I made a thing! It's a very simple thing, it adds a leader to Mansfield: Lorelei who has a guaranteed chance to spawn with scissors ;) Can verify she works in 0.2.5 :D Here's the instructions. Please back up these files before editing them!
1)go to Soulash Directory, Data folder open entities.json with text editor. Add a comma to the last "}" bracket at the bottom of the file and add the following lines
{
"ability_user": [
11
],
"artificial_intelligence": {
"allies": [
1,
2,
7
],
"enemies": [
5
]
},
"components": [
"actor",
"ability_user",
"artificial_intelligence",
"collidable",
"equipment",
"experience_gainer",
"fighter",
"glyph",
"health",
"humanoid",
"moveable",
"name",
"position_2d",
"sight",
"stamina",
"statistics",
"tags"
],
"corpse": "Elven corpse",
"description": "Lorelei is a younger elf than would be commonly encountered. She issues orders to the tradesfolk with a resolute calm that betrays any prior impression of her age and experience.",
"equipment": {
"backpack": [
{
"chance": 1.0,
"name": "Scissors"
}
],
"cape": [
{
"chance": 1.0,
"name": "Cloak"
}
],
"head_cloth": [
{
"chance": 1.0,
"name": "Hood"
}
],
"right_hand": [
{
"chance": 1.0,
"name": "Dagger"
}
],
"torso_cloth": [
{
"chance": 1.0,
"name": "Dress"
}
]
},
"experience_gainer": {
"exp": 10,
"level": 1
},
"glyph": {
"color": [
95,
105,
15
],
"id": 188,
"tile_type": 0,
"tiles": [

]
},
"health": 90,
"id": 587,
"moveable": {
"speed": 1.0
},
"name": "Lorelei Ertoris",
"sight": {
"infravision": false,
"range": 10
},
"statistics": {
"dexterity": [
12,
15
],
"endurance": [

},
"tags": [

]
}
Make sure the "]" end bracket is at the very end of the file still.
2)Go to "Data>Organizations.json", ctrl+f for Mansfield and change the "Leader" value to 587, by default it is -1
You will need to start a new game for the character to spawn in. Lorelei should now be wandering somewhere east of the starting area. If you take your time be aware she could wander to the neighboring zones. If you're not sure you did it correctly, check the Json linting tool Artur linked in the devblog, selecting the entire file and ctrl pasting it in.
I haven't verified yet that she will use her ability of bless weapon, if someone could I'd appreciate it!
*Changes: Buffed to 90 health, glyph changed to "L"
