Description

Welcome to Power-Surge
 
This mod adds several abilities to the game, wich can be used if you have enough "surge"
You can gain surge by killing mobs, animals, players, you name it! You get surge for everything you kill that has health.
 
Introduction:
When you have killed enough mobs, you will find that your surge bar is starting to fill up. But what can you do with this? Well, nothing (yet). If you have been lucky, you will have gotten some rare drops from certain mobs. It looks like some sort of chemical vial, lets drink it!
Under your surge-bar (on the bottopm left of your screen) you will find that there is some tekst there.
Well, that is the name of the ability you have currently selected! Press "M" to activate your ability, and press "M" again to deactivate it. (Some abilities are instant, and don't require being turned off). You will probably have noticed that you have activated a cool ability, jump boost, power-attacks, leap jumps, or even flight! What you may also have noticed, is that your surge-bar level is dropping rapidly. If you run out of surge, your ability deactivates. (IMPORTANT NOTE: when you have no ability active, your surge will still drop very slowly, you can't store a ton of surge to unleash it 2 days later!). If you have a second vial, and you don't have that ability already, right click that aswell, and boom, you have access to that ability aswell, use "[" and "]" to switch between the selected ability.
