A comprehensive, natively-styled encyclopedia modification for Graveyard Keeper 2 that eliminates the need to tab out to external wikis to track down crafting trees. Accessed instantly by pressing F1, the Codex organizes the game's massive web of recipes, stations, and vendors into four clean categories: Items, Buildings, Zombies, and Alchemy. It provides immediate answers on how to source a specific component, which merchant sells it, and what base materials are required to forge it. Built with a strict anti-spoiler philosophy by default, the codex only populates with data your save file has naturally unlocked (unless manually overridden). The UI is fully translated, gamepad compatible, and optionally hooks into the Shopping List mod for seamless task tracking.
Key Features:
- Four-Tab Interactive UI & Global Search — Browse through Items, Buildings, Zombies, and discovered Alchemy with a unified search bar.
- Item Sourcing & Uses — Instantly view all recipes, required workstations, current backpack inventory counts, and localized vendors (including required shop tiers) for any item. Also lists every downstream recipe and building that consumes the item.
- Raw Material Breakdowns — Automatically unrolls complex, multi-stage recipes down to their foundational resources.
- Building Directory — Details construction costs, requirements, and every item that can be manufactured at a specific workstation (fully hyperlinked).
- Zombie Management — Displays detailed stats for all owned zombies: talents, gear bonuses, active workstations, unspent tech points, and the cheapest route to their next talent level. Evaluates their quality efficiency (bronze, silver, gold thresholds) for their currently assigned bench.
- Alchemy Compendium — Documents only the formulas, rune costs, and station requirements you have personally discovered (strict no-spoiler gating).
- Clickable Navigation — Every item, station, and result functions as a hyperlink; physical or mouse "Back" buttons retrace your browsing history perfectly.
- Progress-Locked Spoiler Protection — The codex remains strictly tethered to your save progression. An optional "Show All" toggle is available in settings for unrestricted access.
- Gamepad Support — Fully navigable via controller (bumpers switch tabs, sticks navigate lists, A to select, B to go back) with customizable binding chords.
- Shopping List Integration (Optional) — If the GK2 Shopping List mod is detected, a + button natively appears on Codex recipes to directly pin tasks to your HUD.
Default Controls:
- F1 — Open / Close the Codex.
- Esc — Clear the search bar or close the UI.
- Tab — Close the Codex and open standard inventory.
- Mouse 4 (Back) / B Button (Gamepad) — Return to the previous page.
Requirements & Installation:
- Ensure BepInEx 5.4.23.x (Windows x64) is installed in your game directory.
- Launch the game once and exit to desktop to initialize framework files.
- Extract the downloaded mod archive so the files reside at:
BepInEx\plugins\GK2Codex\GK2Codex.dll - Launch the game.
- To uninstall, delete the BepInEx\plugins\GK2Codex folder (save files remain untouched).
Configuration Instructions:
- Keybindings, individual tab toggles, and the "Show all" override can be configured directly via the in-game "Mods" menu (requires GK2 Mod Framework) or manually edited in BepInEx\config\gk2.codex.cfg.
