Developer stance on the new TOS2 modding that adds new roles etc?

[The Artificer]

If you didn't know, the people working on TOS1's modding scene seemed to have finally worked on modding for TOS2. bringing new roles and whatnot. I'm curious if the developers have ever stated their stance on this or not.

And theres the potential concern that like with town of salem 1. more people will end up playing the modded servers than the actual main game servers to play with the new roles or even readded TOS1 roles in the future. i believe the developers have stated back in TOS1 that the modding was perfectly fine even if most players are only on for the modded servers. But i'm unsure if they've made a statement regarding TOS2's new modded sessions scene thats quickly rising?


I know the TOS2 marshal they added is nearly identical to the one from the TOS1 mod. as well

They promoted Salem Mod Loader pretty early into ToS2's life, maybe during Alpha, that and the devs trust Curtis to handle things. So safe to assume BetterToS2 is fine.

The Marshal role is from ToS2 modded. The Devs have never had a problem with it, they only step in if a mod is borderline cheating in some way. But so far ToS2 modded and the devs seem to have a good relationship, and it seems roles and QoL changes from ToS2 modded are slowly making their way into the original ToS2 as evident by the Marshal role,

We have a good relationship with the modders, and are all for it.

We talked with them before adding in the Marshal role and they were excited to see it added to the base game.

Modded will create a split playerbase, but that isn't necessarily bad. Both can co-exist fulfilling different types of players, and ideas that are good in modded could absolutely be seen added to the base game.

I was wondering who was wanting Marshal (considering how much people seemed to hate it). Popularity didn't seem to carry over from the modded version though.
