</>What does No Earthquakes & Rainy Layers do?
In Casualties: Unknown an earthquake can start at any moment on layers 1 to 9. The screen shakes, you get thrown around or knocked off your feet, blocks around you break loose, and now and then a sudden one makes your character scream. With No Earthquakes switched on the game's earthquake timer stops and no new earthquake starts, sudden ones included. If the ground is already shaking when you switch it on, the shaking stops at once. Switch it off and the timer carries on from where it stopped. No Rainy Layers works on the Rainy layer modifier ("Water is dripping from everywhere in here..."). On a Rainy layer it stops the downpour that soaks you and clears the fog it brings. Turn it off while you are still on that layer and the rain and fog come back. The rain that always falls on the fungal layer is part of that layer and stays. Start Earthquake Now does the opposite: it starts a 20 second earthquake around you on a normal layer, for when you want to see one or record it. It only works while No Earthquakes is off. Nothing is written to your save. The mod only stops the events while a switch is on.
</>What is No Earthquakes & Rainy Layers?
Earthquakes in Casualties: Unknown shake the screen, throw you around and break blocks near you, often right when you are treating a wound or climbing. This mod pauses the game's earthquake timer while its switch is on, so no earthquake starts on any layer, and a quake already running stops straight away. A second switch stops the downpour and fog of the Rainy layer modifier so you stay dry. Nothing goes into your save.
</>Common questions about No Earthquakes & Rainy Layers
Does No Earthquakes also stop the sudden earthquakes?
Yes. Both the slow earthquakes and the sudden ones that make your character scream come from the same timer, and the mod keeps that timer from running out while the switch is on. An earthquake that is already shaking when you switch it on stops at once, so the screen goes still and blocks stop breaking loose.
What happens when I turn No Earthquakes off again?
The earthquake timer carries on from where it was paused, so earthquakes come back at the game's normal pace, usually many minutes later. Your Time between earthquakes run setting applies just as it did before you switched the mod on.
Does No Rainy Layers stop the rain on the fungal layer?
No. It only stops the rain and fog that the Rainy layer modifier adds, the one that greets you with water dripping from everywhere. The fungal layer always has its own rain as part of the layer, and that stays exactly as the game made it, so plan your warm clothes for it as usual.
Why does Start Earthquake Now not work on the last layers?
The game never starts earthquakes from layer 10 down, or in the tutorial, and the button keeps to the same rule so it can't break the deep layers. It also asks you to switch No Earthquakes off first, because that switch would stop the new quake straight away. On a normal layer the shaking builds up over about ten seconds, peaks, and fades again, close to how the game's own earthquakes behave, and it breaks blocks near you just like a real one, so stand somewhere safe before you press it and keep your splints and bandages within reach.
Does the mod change my save or run settings?
No. It changes nothing the game writes into your save, and it leaves your run settings alone, including Time between earthquakes and the layer modifier chance. Close the game with the switches on and your run loads exactly as the game saved it, with earthquakes and rain working normally if you load it without the mod.
