</>What does Arcane Fortune do?
Arcana is the magical energy Wizard with a Gun runs on. Creation spends it, Research Stations spend it, every enchantment you craft spends it, and a doorway home wants a charge of it. Then something out in the Shatter kills you and the lot is gone. Arcane Fortune is the answer to that. Choose how much you want, press Give Arcana, and that much lands on top of whatever you were already carrying. The mod shows you your balance before and after in real numbers, so you never have to trust a vague success message. Press it again for another helping. If you overshoot, or you fancy a clean slate for a self-imposed challenge run, Reset Arcana clears you back to zero in a single press. It earns its keep when a bad death has just emptied you out, when there is a Research Station tree you want finished tonight, when you are kitting out boots, gloves and robes with enchantments, or when you want a sensible starting budget on a brand-new world instead of an hour of feeding loot to the Arcane Annihilator. Two things to know. You need to be loaded into a world for either button to do anything: there is nothing to fill from the title screen, and the mod will say so plainly rather than pretend it worked. And it tops up what you are carrying, so if you already hold the most Arcana the game allows, it tells you straight that nothing moved.
</>What is Arcane Fortune?
Arcane Fortune puts Arcana on tap in Wizard with a Gun, so a bad death in the Shatter or an expensive run of Research stops deciding what you get to build next. Pick an amount, press once, and the real before-and-after numbers come straight back to you. Reset Arcana clears you to zero for a clean challenge start.

</>Common questions about Arcane Fortune
What does Arcane Fortune do in Wizard with a Gun?
Arcane Fortune is a mod for Wizard with a Gun that hands you Arcana on demand. You set an amount, press Give Arcana, and that much lands on top of whatever you were already carrying. Arcana is the magical energy the whole game runs on: Creation spends it, Research Stations spend it, every enchantment you craft spends it, and it is what you lose when something out in the Shatter kills you. Keeping a reserve means one bad run stops deciding what you get to build next. A second button, Reset Arcana, clears you back to zero for a self-imposed challenge run. Both buttons show you your real balance before and after.
What is the Reset Arcana button for?
Reset Arcana clears everything you are carrying back to zero in a single press, and it is there for two reasons. If you overshoot with the Arcana Amount setting and hand yourself far more than you meant to, one press wipes it and you can top up again at a sensible number. And if you fancy a self-imposed challenge in Wizard with a Gun, where nothing gets built until you have earned it the hard way, starting from nothing is the cleanest way to set that up. Like the give button, Arcane Fortune shows you your real balance afterwards, so you can see it actually landed on zero instead of hoping it did.
Does Arcane Fortune tell me how much Arcana I actually have?
Yes. Every press of either button checks what you are carrying before and after and shows you both real numbers, so you always know exactly where you stand rather than trusting a vague success message. That matters because Arcana moves constantly in Wizard with a Gun: Creation takes a slice, Research Stations take a bigger one, a row of enchantments adds up fast, and a single death out in the Shatter can take the lot. The running total is easy to lose track of while you are busy staying alive. If all you want is a balance check, set the Arcana Amount low, press Give Arcana, and read the two numbers Arcane Fortune hands back.
How much Arcana can I give myself at once?
The Arcana Amount setting decides it, and you can change the number between presses, so Arcane Fortune covers everything from a small top-up to a full war chest. Set it low if you only want enough for the next recipe or the next enchantment. Set it high if you are handing yourself a starting budget on a brand-new world and would rather not think about Arcana again for a few hours. Presses stack on top of what you already carry, so two presses of the same amount simply gives you twice as much. One honest limit: it tops up what you are carrying, so if you already hold the most the game allows, it tells you nothing moved.
Why would I use Arcane Fortune instead of farming Arcana the normal way?
Because farming is a loop, and sometimes you already know what you want to build. Arcane Fortune earns its keep in Wizard with a Gun when a death in the Shatter has just cleaned you out, when you have a Research Station tree you want finished tonight, or when you want a sensible budget on a fresh world instead of an hour of feeding loot to the Arcane Annihilator. It adds Arcana or clears it, and that is the whole of it: how you earn Arcana normally is left completely alone. One thing to know, you need to be loaded into a world for either button to work, and the mod says so plainly from the title screen.
