</>What does Flash of Genius do?
Inspiration is the thing standing between you and every interesting recipe in the game, and it turns up at exactly the pace the game feels like. Flash of Genius hands it over directly instead. Set an Amount, then top up red, green or blue on their own, or press Give All Three and fill all three in one go. Every press reports your new total back, so you always know precisely what you are working with rather than guessing at whether it landed. Load into your save before you start - there is nothing to top up from the main menu. There is a reset button as well, which empties all three colours back to nothing for when you want the tree to bite again - useful if you overshot and would rather earn the rest. Best for second runs where you already know which branch you want, for builders who would rather design a workshop than grind towards one, and for anyone who has done the honest version once already.
</>What is Flash of Genius?
The tech tree in Graveyard Keeper 2 runs on Inspiration, and waiting for the right colour to trickle in is the slowest part of a second playthrough. Flash of Genius tops up red, green and blue on demand, one colour at a time or all three at once, reporting your new totals each press. A reset empties them again when you want the tree to bite. Premium mod from ProjectMods.
</>Common questions about Flash of Genius
What does Flash of Genius do in Graveyard Keeper 2?
Flash of Genius hands you the Inspiration that the Graveyard Keeper 2 tech tree spends. Set how much you want in the Amount field, then press Give Red Points, Give Green Points or Give Blue Points to top up that colour, and it reports your new total so you can see it landed. Give All Three fills red, green and blue at once and reports all three totals together. A reset button empties them back to nothing when you decide you want the tree to bite again. Load into your save before you press anything, since there is nothing to top up from the main menu. You still choose what to spend it on, which is the whole point.
What does Give All Three do?
Give All Three fills red, green and blue Inspiration in one press, using the same number you put in the Amount field, then reports all three totals so you know exactly where you stand. It is there because the three tech-tree colours tend to run short together rather than one at a time, and pressing three buttons to say the same thing is busywork. Each colour is handled on its own, so if one of them will not budge the other two still land. If you only need a single colour topped up, the individual buttons are still there and behave identically.
How much Inspiration do I get each press?
Whatever you put in the Amount field. Each of the give buttons in Flash of Genius hands you that number for its colour and then reports your new total in Graveyard Keeper 2, so you are never guessing whether the press worked. Pressing the same button again adds the same amount on top, which makes it easy to creep up to a figure you have in mind rather than committing to one enormous number. The mod adds no ceiling of its own, but the game keeps its own limit, so a large amount can top out partway. When that happens it says so and shows you where you actually landed.
Can I empty the Inspiration again afterwards?
Yes. Flash of Genius has a reset that empties red, green and blue back to nothing, for when you have opened what you wanted and would like the Graveyard Keeper 2 tech tree to feel like a real constraint again. It clears all three together rather than one at a time, so it is a clean slate rather than a fine adjustment. The confirmation shows what each colour held before it went to zero, but there is no undo, so press it deliberately. If you want a particular number back afterwards, set the Amount field and use the give buttons.
How is Flash of Genius different from Enlightenment?
They solve the same bottleneck from opposite ends. Flash of Genius hands you the Inspiration and leaves every decision to you, so you still walk the Graveyard Keeper 2 tech tree in whatever order you like and still feel the shape of it. Enlightenment is the other premium Graveyard Keeper 2 mod on ProjectMods, and it goes further: it opens every branch outright and hands you what they teach. Pick Flash of Genius if you enjoy choosing your route and only resent the saving up. Pick Enlightenment if the tree is something you have already climbed and would rather skip entirely.
