Reading installed mods in control.lua

[N0TZ3R0]

Hello ppl, I hope y'all are great, so, I'm new to modding, and I searched a little bit ( 3 days maybe ) and I can't find a proper ( and simple ) way to check if a mod exist inside control.lua, could u guys please give me an example?

Code: Select all

if game.active_mods["SomeModName"] then
	...
end

But there is LuaBootstrap which should work even if LuaGameScript isn't available. So just replace "game.active_mods" with "script.active_mods" …
