Modding

PAGE IS WIP AND UNDER CONSTRUCTION!

Modding is an exciting endeavor! Hopefully this page can serve as a quick-start on how you can do it to!

Requirements

- .NET Framework - https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet-framework/net462

Quick Start

- Clone https://github.com/MaFi-Games/Captain-of-industry-modding into a directory (https://github.com/MaFi-Games/Captain-of-industry-modding.git)

- Navigate to the directory and into src/ExampleMod

- Run dotnet build /p:LangVersion=10.0

We're using /p:LangVersion=10.0 for building mod, as otherwise it'll throw errors about too new language features being used.

Layouts / EntityLayoutParams

Layouts of structures such as machines or storages are based on a ASCII format passed as list of strings.
