Better Bums Modpack

Description
Better Classic Bums!

This modpack contains all of my 'Better Bum'-mods. It basically improves all classic bums:

- Bum Friend will increase your luck, if he picks up a Lucky Penny. + synergies with Penny trinkets.
- Key Bum can spawn key related items once he collected enough keys.
- now Dark Bum is useful for the Lost and the Keeper.
- Super Bum has a combination of all new abilities.
- general increased chance to find all three bums( basically a higher chance to get Super Bum).
Check out this pastebin for more information about the effects[pastebin.com]

This mod comes also with 10 console commands which let you de-/activate the effects of the bums (Bum Friend, Key Bum and Dark Bum), customize some animations, customize the abilities of Super Bum and let you decide if you want to find the bums more often. You can find a list of them in this pastebin[pastebin.com], in the main.lua or as a document in the mod folder.

To everyone who know the other "Better ... Bum"-mods:
This is not just a copy and paste project! I tried to improve everything I could. Those improvements and changes are:

- compatibility between all the mods. Now Super Bum shares the counters with Dark Bum and Key Bum so that he can continue what they started.
- now Bum Friend has counter which will increase, if picks up a Lucky Penny. The amount will be added to your luck stat.
- now Super Bum will play a unique spawn animation, if he spawns a key related item.
- now Key Bum has a unique spawn animation for key related items.


If you are already subcribed to one of my "Better ... Bums"- mods, then you would have to unsubcribe to them, because they interfere with that mod.

Special thanks to everyone who subcribed to my old "better ... bum"- mods. You guys are awesome:)

And thanks to Nato Potato for his Dog Whistle mod which made the testing and debugging really easy!

Please report any issues you may have so that I can fix them:)
Have fun with it!

@Rekt
Yes and no. Certain abilities like Key Bum recharging your item don't work anymore. I also would like to update it's item pool due to Repentance adding a lot of key related items. Sadly I haven't had time to get to that.
I will add mod config menu compatibility once the update for one of my other mods (Trinket Costumes) is done tho:)

Do all the bums work in Repentance? Would love to have compatibility with mod config menu too to adjust xxx penny trinket drop rates

after testing with repentance i can say that dark bum still works with keeper but does not with the lost, bum friend works as intended and key bums buff just doesn't work at all

@Spore64 I replicated it by giving myself Dad's Lost Coin since that spawns a Lucky Penny always so I spawn Bum Friend and he picks it up.

That makes it even stranger.
My first guess would have been a compatibility error with the Better Super Bum mod. You actually don't really need the Better Super Bum mod with this mod (except you just want that specific functionality), because this mod combines all 'better bums ...'- mods.

Super Bum is really strange. The game doesn't treat him as a separate familiar. It rather treats him as all of the bums together as far as I understood it. That means that if you try call something/ a function for him specifically the game will try to run it for the normal bums first.

As for the bug. How did you replicate it? Another thing.. I know I can't request this, but if you find the mod which causes the bug to occur, then would you please give me the name of the mod. This way I can fix the bug ASAP (probably Wednesday).
