Erenshor Hardcore Mod (BepInEx Plugin)

Caution

This Mod is still being developed and tested. It has the ability to delete characters if you turn the option on in the config. Use the Mod on your own risk. I will not be able to restore ANY characters for you. Look into the RespawnPatch if you want to see the source code of the deletion.

🛡️ About

The Erenshor Hardcore Mod introduces a true hardcore mode to the game Erenshor.
Once your character dies, they are permanently locked and cannot be played again.

• ☠️ Permadeath: Dead characters can no longer be used.
• 🔗 Steamworks Integration: Ensures each character is linked to a Steam account.
• 🚫 No Second Chances: Death is final. If you die, it's over!
• 💾 Secure Storage: Uses JSON to track character status.
