This is a simple guide on how to create your own custom mod in order to only use certain parts you want from one or more mods.
THIS IS MEANT FOR YOUR OWN PRIVATE USE ONLY and does not in any way represent a permission for stealing.
As with any mod you have to create a mod for this. And like any mod it requires a mod.txt
.
- First copy the whole original
mod.txt
- Comment out the parts you do not want with
//
for each line or whole sections with /*
and */
or delete those lines altogether.
- Adjust all the path links with
../base_mod_name/
If you want to use parts from different mods you will have to copy sections from each mod's mod.txt
and put them correctly together.
You can safely copy action section and just paste it into the Action field:
Actions
[
{
Action = AddMany // from mod A
// etc.
}
{
Action = Add // from mod B
// etc.
}
]
However, if you use parts from same kind of Actions for example adding parts you have to merge them into a single new one. By same I mean Actions that for example make changes to the same vanilla files in this case terran.txt
.
{
Action = AddMany
AddTo = <Ships/Terran/terran.txt>/Terran/Parts
ManyToAdd
[
&<../Abh_mod/cockpit/cockpit_s1_2.txt>/Part // from Abh mod
&<../Mod_X/some_part/some_part.txt>/Part // from mod X
]
}
