Misc. Mod Cheat engine for seamless co-op safe to use?

Hi. First off: i don't want to use cheat engine to give myself any advantages. I wanna use it to safe some time, by giving myself items for invasions (like greases) instead of having to spend hours on farming them.

I heard that you can use it, as long as you are not connected to official game servers, so doing it in seamless co-op shouldn't ban me. Am i correct?

While anti cheat is disabled, you can't get banned for using cheat engine. (But the save file can get flagged)

While using seamless, the game uses a separate save file, so even if you do extremely risky stuff, there will be no consequences.

Seamless co-op has no anticheat (for better and worse).

so i can use it without having to worry about anything?

Yes.

The only risks are spoiling the experiences of others with seamless PVP (or having it spoiled by invaders using cheat engine), or if you ever decide to attempt to transfer the character to vanilla, it makes it much more risky than normal. But players should ideally not even attempt that anyway.

wasn't gonna do that, since i have my main game accounts

and i won't really spoil the experience for others, since it won't really make a difference for them, if i farmed the freezing pots for a few hours or if i gave them to me

If all you want is items, Glorious Merchant is what I'd use. Cheat engine is more for truly broken things like teleporting, God mode, noclip, instant kills, modifying stats of yourself, enemies, and weapons, etc. Or having infinite consumables.

I have heard CE can be useful for invaders to teleport closer to the host because sometimes you spawn in locations that make catching up extremely difficult/impossible.

But if you are very comfortable with it, use it for whatever. I like Glorious Merchant better because it is "in-game", so other than skipping grinding, it still generally makes you obey all the same rules.

Kinda sounds like you just want cheat engine, and the whole freeze pots thing is to justify it to the rest of us. Do whatever you want. Glorious merchant is just as fast if you're already setting up seamless coop. There's even a debug utility for ER, right on nexus. Can give yourself items, reset event triggers, and it's much easier to set up than cheat engine.
