Development tutorial [WIP]

Postby arcayn » Mon Apr 16, 2018 1:32 pm

Myself and neozoid have been working on this document for some time now, designed to give new modders with a knowledge of lua a comprehensive documentation of everything we have learnt from deconstructing the source code so people can get modding easily without having to spend ages figuring out how to do things. It has a few tutorials on adding/modding basic game elements (pilots/enemies/mechs/weapons) and we plan to expand it to include almost everything, as well as a detailed documentation of (pretty much) every class/method used by the game - we currently have a list of them all but no documentation, although the function names are generally pretty self-explanatory.

Happy modding!

May I suggest also linking the Discord channel in the main post so people can join the modding community?
