The Long Drive

The Long Drive

How to start Modding?
Hello,

I had an idea for this game, but before suggesting it, I thought that it could make a decent mod. I was wondering if there are any resources out there for modding The Long Drive? I've done a few google searches, and I know that mods exist, so it's possible. But I couldn't find any specific guides or tutorials. I imagine it would involve decompiling the game files? Is that something I should even be doing? It seems like something the developer might not like, so is this even a valid approach?

Any insight that could be provided into this issue would be greatly appreciated.

since TLD is a relatively new game and not that well known, I suggest you to search how to make mods for unity games, not this game specifically.
Or maybe ask around on our discord server.

I have nothing against mods if they are not just spawn menus.

It's cool to see mods which add new stuff or change existing ones :D

I myself don't really have experience in modding.

That sounds like a great idea! I'll have to check it out.

And thanks for making this game!

Just for a sec. Serious time. Any mods made will brake as the game evolve. The game has quite a way to go since not even multiplayer is truly a thing yet. Unless the work on the game stops. ?

Dev's do not know how to mod there game own game? So you yourself is not having to hack the crap out of Unity to make the game work? That basically is how you mod a game too but add a extra layer of bodge.

It is just a bunch of hacks and bodge work when it comes to Unity. Having played the game it looks kinda forced put together like a mod rather then a proper game you know. So yes you do know how to mod. The hole game is a mod XD Just talking the truth here. Still better then allot of AAA games. They are not bodge approved got damit.

But we need some spawn menus! And teleport buttons and such. And remove that snake from the garage. I do not dare go in there so I have to hike until I find a car without snakes!

P.S: just joking.
