Free Respec

DESCRIPTION
FreeRespec is a comprehensive mod that eliminates the cost of respecifying character attributes in No Rest for the Wicked. The mod works by intercepting and modifying multiple game systems:Core Functionality:

• Cost Elimination: Patches GetRespecCost() to always return 0, making respecs free
  

• Affordability Check: Modifies CanPlayerAffordRespec() to always return true
  

• UI Updates: Replaces cost display with "FREE" text in the respec interface
  

• Resource Protection: Prevents Fallen Ember consumption during respec operations by blocking InventoryAPI.RemoveItemOfType() calls
  

Technical Implementation:

• Uses Harmony patching to intercept 7 key methods including ExecuteRespecAttributesPlayerCommand, TryRespecPointsForAttributes, and SendRespec
  

• Patches TextMeshPro UI components to display "FREE" instead of actual costs
  

• Implements contextual blocking to only prevent ember removal during respec operations
  

• Includes comprehensive error handling and logging for debugging
  

User Experience:

• Seamlessly integrates with the existing respec UI
  

• No configuration required - works immediately upon installation
  

• Maintains game balance by only affecting respec costs, not other systems
  

• Compatible with other mods and game updates
