steam workshop modding

[TiredCarp]

has there been any news from the devs about allowing modding from the steam workshop? this little masterpiece has too much potential...

modding would be wonderful, but afaik, the most recent dev comment about modding is from 2017 and it is not optimistic:

with the business model seemingly focused on DLC biomes that are functionally reskins plus a few features, modding would probably undercut it substantially, so i personally dont see this happening ever.

Just before the release of Two Crowns, someone asked for mod support, and got the attention of the game director.

This is somehting we'd like to add, but it won't happen at launch. Would would be nice to know is what kind of Mod support the community wants and to what level. It might have gotten easier, but Unity isn't the easiest egine to build this support for. So, knowing what the community wants to mod would go a long way for researching our options.

Players kept necroing the same post countless times until 2023, when a (then) Raw Fury community manager replied.

A lot of the team are on holiday at the moment, taking a well-deserved break after the release of Kingdom Eighties. Once they're back, I should be able to get a response for you.

I can't even imagine what Kingdom with mods would look like tbh but maybe that's because I love the game just as it is.

Sadly, Vicki is no longer at Raw Fury.

Yes would be so fun to have this. And mods are for the players, not the devs, of course they want the game as they made it, else they would have made it in some other way.

Yeah, I've honked this horn before, mostly with the goal of getting a randomizer.
Would be cool as hell.

There's so much potential locked up in Two Crowns still, and it's strange to me that with all of its rough edges and weirdness, inscrutability, half-finished or under-used elements, poor balance for two players (remember the game's NAME?), lack of replayability... that the game has essentially sat on ice for the last two years. It's lovely and fully-playable and I have 100+ hours on it, but... it still feels incomplete to me.
