TL:DR Check out the Botanophobia Testing Station in the Sub Editor to experience all this mod has to offer :)

Europa is a strange place filled with all kinds of cosmic horrors under the ice. Most of them are monsters but few are plant based. Combine this with the simplicity of the gardening gameplay I felt it would be cool to expand on this and add some excitement and risk to gardening with some greater reward without going too crazy.

This Mod includes:

New Job — The Botanist is a Medical-focused plant specialist designed to handle new hazards on your sub. Starts with high Medical skill (25-40) and comes equipped with a mask, suit, watering can, planter, seed bag and handbook.

New Unique Weapons — Chemical Sprayer and the Canister Launcher, both use gas canisters to douse your enemies in chaos in two completely different styles. One for focused damage over time, the other for area of effect with high alpha damage for area denial.

Gas Canisters — Chlorine, White Phosphorus, Hydrogen Cyanide, Agent R (Raptor Bane), and Carbon Monoxide. Have a new appreciation for the Geneva Convention.

New Crafting Station — The Botanist Distiller lets you produce botanist items without hogging the fabricator. You can still craft most items at a Fabricator.

New Gardening Items — Sprinklers, Incinerators, Power Planters, Industrial Planters, Organic Fertilizer, Hazard Crates, and more.

14 New Seeds across 4 tiers of danger, each with unique growth personalities, hazards and produce.

Seed Research — Discover Unidentified Seeds from monsters or shops and research what they contain at the Seed Research Station.

3 Custom Creatures — Mushroom Man, Paralysis Maggot, and the Maggot Man (husk transformation).

Full Talent Tree — 3 specializations with 4 tiers each, plus a common pool with meaningful choices.

Chinese Language Support — Full Simplified Chinese translation included.

Credits to Mods I've borrowed from and am happy to remove the incorperated content from at any time on request:

Thalassophobia: Remastered - One of the greatest mods. The placeholder CBRN suit you spawn with is from this and the sprinkler is partially based on this mod as well. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2706543497

Plants Plus - I've incorperated the plants from this mod as they fit the theme. It's rather hard to put a unique spin on these for my own mod so I just incorperated them and credited. If you want just the simple plants I highly recommend it. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2593694178

Development

You are free to use whatever you want from this mod with no restrictions but some credit would be nice (unless its something originally from another mod).

I have included the GIMP spritesheet (xcf) file in the mod root directory so you can add/extract specific sprites as you want.

AI Disclaimer:

AI was used in the development of balancing tables due to the number of seeds and their properties along with translation files.

Everything else including the XML item defs and literally everything else is (Obsessively) human made code.
