Yeah I understand, since I’m a modder myself. Since you impressed me with your first game, I’m definitely going to buy your second.

I moved 2 posts to a new topic: Will your next games support modding?

Will UME mods be compatible with this, and how would we upload mods?

#13

If you get access to the workshop beta, as you see above. Possibly UME mods are able to run.

Yes and no. At the moment UME generates mods which are not compatible but with a bit of coding knowledge, you could make the required changes to upload UME mods.

I’m sure though that @alphabit plans to update UME to generate Workshop compatible mods.

okay, thanks. could you tell me which changes I need to make and where they are located, I do not know how to do JS stuff.

#16

in this case it’s probably easier to wait for @alphabit to update UME.

Or you can PM me, if you are out of luck, I’ll do the coding stuff.

@PatrickKlug should a new forum category named ‘workshop’ be created ? Like modding, or game-dev-tycoon for example.

I’m not in my country (so no computer) and I want to make a mod for the workshop

The only thing I can do now is wish to return without thinking about this too much (otherwise the time will be like 1 hour = 3 hours).

Anyway… awsome!

PM Charlie, if you want to access it

Rumours say that alphabit will update UME very soon to support publishing and updating mods directly from the editor :wink:

Important note

If you encountered or still encounter a “Could not load mod” error, please (re-)subscribe the item that could not be loaded, restart GDT and then unsubscribe the item again.

This can happen if you had the previous beta installed and faced the mentioned problem.
