Hey everyone,

I'm working on a squad mod for Door Kickers 2 and trying to add a custom doctrine to my squad without modifying the game's original data files. I want to ensure that the doctrine is fully functional and loaded from my mod folder instead of editing the main data/doctrines.xml.

What I’ve Tried So Far:
Created a custom doctrines.xml inside my mod folder (e.g., mods/MyMod/data/doctrines.xml).
Defined a new doctrine in that file and referenced it in the squad's XML.
Added doctrine="MyCustomDoctrine" inside the squad’s unit definition.
The squad works fine, but the doctrine section appears empty in-game.
What I Need Help With:
Is it possible to load a custom doctrine exclusively from the mod folder without touching the base game files?
Are there any workarounds or additional steps to make the doctrine system recognize modded files?
Have other modders successfully done this, or is modifying data/doctrines.xml the only way?


+I want to install mods in Door Kickers 2, but I couldn't find a clear discussion on how to do it. Also, I have 5 custom squads that I want to import into the game. How can I do that? Any help would be appreciated!

Is there a guide available on this topic? I need one not just on Discord but also on Steam.
