Artifact Redux v1.3.1 addon

Exactly what it says on the tin, a mod that changes artifacts. I based many changes off similar ones in Artifacts Overhaul and Total Artifact and Attachment Overhaul, as well as the artifact's incarnations in the trilogy. Overall, every artifact has been changed, to both be useful in the early game as well as stay balanced compared to regular attachments.

Also the Compass now spawns in electra anomalies. It was a cool idea from TAAO that I've decided to use. They should be rare.

Any criticism is appreciated. I didn't change attachment stats, but the goal was to encourage artifacts being roughly equal to attachments early game, a bit better mid game, and much better late game. If any issues arise, balancing or otherwise, don't hesitate to comment.

Note: I've removed the grey radiation icon, as it would keep flashing with + and - rad artifacts. However, sometimes when loading into a save, your -rad artifacts may not work as intended. I don't know why this happens (and I'm not sure I can fix it), but I do know that it happens usually when a single +rad artifact is being nullified by multiple -rad artifacts. An easy fix is to just reequip the artifacts on your belt. I recommend equipping + and - rad artifacts in a way that pairs them up, so that one nullifies one and so on.

v1.3.1- Some changes to Bubble and Bracelet. Bracelet should now have a bit less chem protection, but offer some external rad resistance. Bubble's been given some more rad resistance, and some slightly amped up weaknesses.

v1.3- Some changes to radiation. Radiation levels are now +6, +12, and +24, and container levels mirror this. I've done this to both simplify future edits as well as possibly help mitigate the rad bug. However, I've got no guarantee if it'll fix the latter, so for now I recommend being wary of using two artifacts to counter the radiation of one. It's a small bug and not really that much of an issue especially with containers, but I'm trying to brainstorm why it's happening and how to prevent it, so the moment I fix it I'll update this mod immediately.

Furthermore there's been some changes to artifacts. Snowflake has been buffed slightly, and Bracelet's psy protection has been nerfed. Concerning psy protection, there have been some buffs and nerfs across the board, to generally encourage artifact use while not making some artifacts better than others when they shouldn't be. Examples include Pin, Flash, and Soul being buffed, as well as Black Spray being slightly reworked. Healing items have also been treated, with most health items being kicked up a notch (save for Kolobok, which was lowered a bit but had weaknesses lowered). Generally, artifacts such as Beads and Soul are now more useful, while end game healing items like Flame and Kolobok are better but different, to encourage specific artifacts for different playstyles. Finally, Firefly has been buffed a bit health wise. The idea is to make it an artifact that is rather difficult and annoying to use long term/in combat, but an excellent health kit artifact in cover or out of combat that can patch you up comparably to a scientific medkit.

As always, bug reports and balance advice is appreciated. Feel free to rate the mod too. Hope you enjoy.

v1.2.1- Accidentally gave Soul 61 +rads instead of 6-7, due to a missing zero. If any other errors such as this occur, be sure to tell me. I'll fix it ASAP.

v1.2- Made various balance changes. Buffed Flame's healing, added rad protection to Bubble and nerfed heat resistance as well as removed -bleeding and +healing factors, nerfed Ring's electric resistance, nerfed Flash and Eye's psy resistance and added rad resist for Flash, slightly nerfed Sponge, buffed Battery, buffed Snowflake (Trying to make it more of a high risk/reward artifact), nerfed pin's psy waves and reduced his radiation, nerfed Oasis by removing the satiety and -radiation (Oasis is special, because she's meant to be powerful yet is rather easier to acquire. Trying to balance her as best I can, same with Compass since he now spawns rarely in electras), nerfed Kolobok's -rad resistance and upped healing, nerfed both the electricity and explosives from Beads but added some rad resistance, nerfed Bracelet's psy resistance, nerfed Stone Flower's resistance and generally made it more balanced, buffed Lobster Eyes and nerfed its physical resistances, buffed Soul's healing, added Electricity to Crystal and increased her radiation, added both radiation resistance and more burn weakness to Stone Blood, slightly nerfed Jellyfish, nerfed Gravis psy and buffed its electricity (I accidentally forgot a zero so Gravi had -2000 psy), and nerfed Wrench's rupture weakness (same issue as Gravi).

Also added screenshots, to easily compare artifact stats. I'm trying to make the artifacts fit their lore and such while also making them balanced, and progressively get stronger in terms of rarity.

v1.1- Updated Goldfish, Moonlight, Black Spray, Wrenched, Flash, and Full Empty to be a bit more useful, with Goldfish being the primary reason. Previously, he wasn't very good because his negatives outweighed his upside of weight capacity. Now, it should be a generally good choice to pick him as an artifact, which fits his high tier compared to, say, Jellyfish/Medusa. Generally trying to make higher tier artifacts more useful, or oftentimes better than their lower tier brethren. Feel free to let me know about any bugs, balance issues, or general gripes with the mod.
