Why no mods?

[the cup]

This game would benefit hugely from them considering that official development takes a lot of time. Would be nice to be able to allow the such a big and active community to add their own stuff to the game to entertain them while we wait for an update, and if something is really high quality maybe add it officially.

Is it some technical reason? I'm used to AAA games usually having some hard coded dumb reason but if this is just made for free idk why the developers would discourage modding.

Because if mods are possible Northwood loses most of their patreon funding

AAA games dont like mods because it changes the intended experience. ((stupid)) Northwood has the same reason.

If they're in it for the money why don't they just make this game cost money then. And then add mod support.

They are not in it entirely for the money but I have no doubt that in the future they will add microtransactions they already made plushies

I knew their reason for not allowing mods, but I forgot...

Expect modding when NW doesn't want to support or update the game anymore. So ~18 years from now, when they release the surface rework.

When NW starts their NWO plan you mean?

Why are you throwing a fash dog whistle around for nothing? Did the older edgykid jomptry teach you this?

Where did you get that idea from? The (barebones) API is over there on github and most servers have plugins. EXILED distributed (and still do IIRC) modified AssemblyCSharp (in laymans terms, dll with most game logic in it) that loads their own binaries so people could develop plugins.

If im not missing something. modding is not discouraged in any way. You obviously can't temper with the client code directly since its C++ and theres SLAC that protects exe from runtime patching (?) but you shouldn't in the first place. I miss the days where hubert didnt code in a line-of-sight check and you could shoot people through walls.

I like dogs but I don’t know how to whistle so I “whistle” through my anus.

the "northwood world order" is a lie made by the puppets (northwood) to cover up the real world order of the galactic empire of companies

Modders would outpace NW tenfold

Why don’t they just get a job if they need money?
