The stand-alone mod S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly aims to be the most stable and customizable experience for fans of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games. It's powered by the Monolith 64-bit engine, a custom fork of the X-Ray engine.

Description

This script attempts to protect an Invictus Achievement run from user error. This shouldn't be used if you are not trying for an Invictus Achievement.

Why there is notification every 60 seconds?

Because you are no longer eligible for an Invictus achievement.

I am using the same logic that awards the achievement minus the quest line completion requirement. If that doesn't pass you get a message.

This shouldn't be used if you are not trying for an Invictus Achievement.

Greetings, thanks for the mod!

While a must-have for those of us that only play ironman, there's a problem with your mod. For whatever reason, it disables, in the settings menu, inside the gameplay options, the progression diff. and the gameplaydiff. settings.

Cheers.

well of course. because if you change one of those the invictus achievement is void. has to stay on the hardest for both.

Oh, I didn't know that. I thought that only messing with F7 would unable an Invictus Run (obviously besides the achievement's requirements).

Very well, thanks for the mod! I'll certainly use it! A 10/10 addon!

I think there may be a slight bug with this mod unless I'm misunderstanding how the Invictus achievement works.

The achievement is worded "Never die twice on your journey", but if you are playing with Lifegranter enabled (I do this in case I want to continue the run even if I fail Invictus), this mod only triggers when you've hit 3 remaining lives (even if you've died more than 2 times, but gotten the lives back from Lifegranter) - or maybe it's "starting lives minus 2".

If that's actually working as intended, the Invictus achievement is actually more lenient than I thought.

EDIT: So I just got Invictus because apparently that is how it works. You can use Life Granter, and as long as your lives don't fall below "starting lives minus 2", you get the achievement.

I just copied the logic from the achievement. If anomaly has a bug in the logic you should report it to them.

No. At least not for this addon to work. You might have already failed your Invictus run and need to start over.

Is there a way to make this a bit more performance friendly?
Like only checking for Invictus when loading a save instead of every set time while playing?

No doing this check once every 60 seconds check isn't going to cause a performance hit so there is no way to make it more performance friendly.

It can be made to only run at start with a few changes by someone motivated to do so, aka not me.

Can I enable/disable this with MO2 at any time in my run?

yeah. that is probably a good idea if you want to convert that playthru from ironman to normal when you start to run out of lives. It is really annoying to have this addon installed on a non iron man run.
