人皇幡 / Human Emperor Banner

Human Emperor Banner / 人皇幡

"This is the Human Emperor Banner, filled only with noble Daoist friends who voluntarily dedicated their souls." The Human Emperor Banner is a unique "righteous" (正道) magical artifact that drops near your colony shortly after the game starts. It captures the souls of fresh corpses on the battlefield, converting their live-active abilities into powerful skills for the banner wielder.

◆ Core Features

• Soul Extraction: Equip the banner and right-click fresh corpses on the battlefield to extract their souls. If the creature possessed active abilities (vanilla psycasts, xenotype genes, etc.), you can capture them as main souls in the banner.
• UI Panel Extraction (★ New): Added a "Nearby Absorbable Souls" scanning list in the UI panel. Opening the panel scans all corpses within the wielder's range, showing available skills and allowing "one-click remote extraction". The extraction range is fully linked to the weapon's attack range and expands dynamically as you upgrade it!
• Ability Attunement: The soul chamber houses up to 3 main souls. Open the Cultivation panel anytime to equip their active skills (such as Sanguophage leap, fire spit, or psycasts) to the wielder's ability bar.
• Anomaly Entities: Capturing specific Anomaly entities grants signature skills: Devourer → Devourer Leap Revenant → Revenant Invisibility Gorehulk → Needle Shot Spiker → Spine Launch
• Cultivation through Slaughter: Killing enemies near the wielder harvests Soul Power. The passive harvesting range and the UI panel extraction range are now dynamically aligned with the weapon's actual attack range (hover over the Cultivate icon to display the green range circle on the ground, which expands with upgrades). Consume Soul Power to permanently upgrade stats. (<★ Cultivation Update: Damage, AP, Lifesteal, and Soul Durability have no level limit! Weapon cooldown reduction caps at Lv. 30, execution chance caps at Lv. 67 (100% guaranteed execution>). Added "Spell Haste" (Lv. 20 max for 0 cooldown instant cast) and "Attack Range" (Lv. 26 max, aligning max range to ~55 cells, wider than the vanilla sniper rifle!).)
• Eldritch Backlash: Imprisoned souls start with 10 uses, expandable infinitely via "Soul Durability" cultivation. If uses run out, the soul disperses. In addition, you may hear spooky whispers from the imprisoned souls during refinement. As the saying goes: "Work hard, or become a brother in the Human Emperor Banner!"

◆ Compatibility & Optimization

• Save Game Compatible: Can be added to existing saves. If loaded mid-game, the banner will drop in an orbital pod near your colony shortly after loading.
• Mod Compatibility: Compatible with magic and psycast mods (like Vanilla Psycasts Expanded). If their abilities use the vanilla Ability framework, the banner can dynamically recognize and absorb them.
• Extreme Optimization (★ New): Built on a lightweight C# architecture. High-frequency tick calculations have been fully optimized. Corpse scanning uses a dirty-flag cache and direct list filtering, reducing idle CPU usage to 0% with no impact on TPS!
