⚠️ DEPRECATED - This mod does not work reliably

This repository is archived and the mod is no longer maintained.

Why This Mod Doesn't Work

Despite multiple attempts to patch the game's mutation system, NPCs still use Spacetime Vortex inconsistently. The game's internal ability activation system proved too complex to reliably intercept with Harmony patches.

✅ Use This Instead: Normality Gas

The in-game solution that actually works:

Normality Gas Grenades

• Contest activation of Spacetime Vortex before it takes effect
• Suppress mental mutations temporarily
• Available from merchants and as loot

How to Use

1. Stock up on normality gas grenades
2. When you see an enemy with Spacetime Vortex about to activate, throw the grenade at them
3. The ability activation can be prevented

Other Counters

• Distance: Stay 9+ tiles away to be out of range
• Confusion: Flashbangs and confusion effects interrupt psychic abilities
• Mental Mirror: Reflects mental attacks back at source
• High Mental Armor: Build Willpower for better defense
• Anchoring: Some items and abilities prevent forced teleportation
