ModManager

Overview

The ModManager adds:

• A setting for the ModsDirectory in your Config.js
• Commands through the existing ACE command handler for managing mods
• Something to shut down mods when the server shuts down
• Something to find, load, and activate mods when the server starts
  • Loading and hot-reloading is handled through DotNetCorePlugins

If there are no mods in the mod folder the additions of the fork will do nothing.

Commands

Mods can be managed in-game or via console using /mod <verb> [part of mod name] (skip the / in console).

The available verbs are:

• list|l
  • Prints out mods and their status to the console
• enable|e [name]
• disable|d [name]
• restart|r [name]
• toggle|t [name]
• find|f
  • Shuts down all existing mods and looks for them again as if the server was starting. Use this is you want to add a newly created mod to a live server.
• Temporary convenience verbs are:
  • settings|s [name] will attempt to open the specific mods Settings.json with the default handler
  • method|m Type MethodName will print out some information about a method that may be helpful in creating a HarmonyPatch for it (if you aren't using the Harmony extension (which you should be))
