GAME MECHANICS

Explore game mechanics

Browse possible checks, rewards and settings. What appears in your game depends on your World options.

Source catalog Release 0.2.4APWorld metadata: 0.2.4; public release tag: v0.2.4-alpha

The released APWorld defines 642 candidate locations: 564 base-game entries and 78 marked for Reckonin’ at Gun Manor. Gun Manor is enabled by default, so the source-derived default count is 642 and assumes DLC ownership; disabling it leaves 564. Public issue reports mention missing checks and unavailable purchases, and this source inventory does not establish runtime detection.

Actions and milestones that can send a check to your multiworld.

Playing with others

A solo West of Loathing campaign exchanges items with other Archipelago players. Players can take turns at different times, but this client should remain connected while progressing; asynchronous play is not a promise of offline check recovery.

Known scope and limitations

  • This is an early alpha, not a validated full campaign. Current maintainer reports describe missing checks and purchases becoming unavailable, including a honeybean interaction. Some missed rewards do not reliably return through Dirtwater Mercantile; host assistance may be needed.
  • Use the matching WOLAP_Mod.zip and westofloathing.apworld from v0.2.4-alpha. Windows installation is documented through Thunderstore, r2modman or manual BepInEx setup. The current dependency-patcher route is explicitly untested on Linux and macOS.
  • For manual installation, prefer the documented BepInEx patchers option over replacing the game's Newtonsoft.Json.dll. These are alternative methods, not cumulative steps. Follow the matching uninstall instructions and preserve dependencies used by other mods.
  • Back up your saves and start a dedicated modded save for each room. A modded-save marker exists, but the inspected code does not establish a seed-and-slot binding guard. Do not reuse a campaign across seeds or assume uninstalling restores changed saves.
  • Stay connected while making progress. Offline outgoing checks are queued in memory, not durably saved, and connecting clears that queue. Do not rely on offline progress being recovered after a disconnect or restart.
  • Connection details are retained in game data. Keep saves and diagnostic files private, and remove credentials before sharing them. Received items are applied during gameplay or inventory interaction rather than combat.
  • Gary as a companion and hard mode are unsupported. Gun Manor uses a fixed difficulty of five. These gameplay changes are part of the integration, not optional equivalents of every vanilla setting.
  • DeathLink and native shared-save co-op are not established by this build. Panludia's source and distribution review is not an independent playthrough, a security certification or proof that every generated campaign can finish without intervention.

This integration is maintained independently of Panludia. Downloads are provided by its maintainer. Contact the maintainer through the linked repository or support channels.
