Item Tips Mod by scionofmemory - Enter the Gungeon Mods

Item Tips Mod

Are you tired of interrupting your game to look up something about an item on the wiki?
Are you a new player who needs a few extra hints on what items do?

Then this mod is for you. Inspired by the "External item descriptions" mod for Binding of Isaac. Item Tips also supports custom external description files. See the Custom Descriptions section below.

The mod provides helpful extra tips in-game for all passives, actives, and guns where ever they appear including metashops. The onscreen tip includes:

Item/Gun Name
Quality
Short description including effects like curse and coolness.
Synergies with an indicator if you will complete the synergy with this item.

Ammonomicon entries are expanded to include:

Quality
Short description (same as above)
Synergies with descriptions
If you have an external item tips file, the mod which contains the item.

Especially useful for getting some basic info when you don't know an item by sight, like in a rainbow run or haven't unlocked it yet in a metashop. Items that reveal chest contents (e.g. The Exotic) also show tips.

Commands

There are few commands to perform some functions in the mod, they look like this:
itemtips [command] {commandargs}

The commands:

help {commandname} - prints help about the mod. If an argument is supplied it gives help on the command that is the argument.
Example: itemtips help config gives help on the config command.
config [setting] [value] - changes configuration setting.
Settings:
tips - controls in-game tips, values: [on/off]
ammonomicon - controls ammonomicon expansion, values: [on/off]
Example: itemtips config tips off - turns off in-game tips.
reload - reloads external description files.
generate - generates a sample external description file for all currently loaded items/synergies.

I made an itemtips file for Enter the Dungeon: https://modworkshop.net/mod/25395
(also this version since there is only 1 ID change https://modworkshop.net/mod/26207)

I tried adding you two on steam (Boomber and Scionofmemory) to get the file to you some how.
But seems like you removed my Friend request and I don't really know any otherway to reach you, so just gonna dump the contents here (already tested and it works)
