Update the mod tutorial

Post by yagaodirac »

I started modding recently. I found the mainly help is from friends. The official tutorial for modding is very old.
Update it, add all the details. Or your great work on the prototype viewer is doomed to be wasted.
As I known, now we have at least a logging function, ctrl shift e, ctrl shift f, and 3 debugging mods(2 from x2605, and one is named something sudo). The basic grammar is already available if searching on Google.
Now all you official need to do is minimizing the guess work.

Btw, I don't know if it is possible to recompile the lua code without reload all the image, sound resources?

If i didn't miss anything big then /sudo is a mod i made for my personal use.
