Basics

This guide assumes you have basic understanding with programming and know how to use developer environments. Listed below are tools useful for exporting file formats

If you'd like a more lengthy set of tutorials covering many topics. Look at:

Quick start

In order to get started with making your mod, create a folder in R2Northstar/mods. While it isn't required, it is best practise by mod authors to follow the naming scheme "Author.ModName", such as "Northstar.Client".

After making this folder, inside it add a folder named mod and a file named mod.json.

Provided is a template mod.json, for a detailed list of values read Cheatsheet

{
    "Name": "My.Mod",
    "Description": "Woo yeah wooo!",

    "LoadPriority": 0,
    "ConVars": [],
    "Scripts": [],
    "Localisation": []
}

Inside the mod folder, existing files found in the engine's virtual file system will be overwritten and new files can be added. If you need to define new Squirrel files (.nut/.gnut) they must be declared in the "Scripts" array in mod.json. An example for this might be:

    "Scripts": [
        {
            "Path": "path/to/my.nut",
            "RunOn": "( CLIENT || SERVER ) && MP"
        },
        {
            "Path": "path/to/my_second.nut",
            "RunOn": "( CLIENT || SERVER ) && MP",
            "ClientCallback": {
                "Before": "ClientPreMapspawnThing",
                "After": "AfterMapspawnClientThing"
            },
            "ServerCallback": {
                "Before": "ServerPreMapspawncrap",
                "After": "ServerAfterMapspawnWoo"
            }
        }
    ]

TODO: Create and link Squirrel VM documentation

"Path" indicates where the script is, "RunOn" is the Squirrel VM context (see Squirrel VM) as an expression, and "ClientCallback" and "ServerCallback" specify a function call that can be "Before" and/or "After" map-spawn.
