Study the syntax and keywords, try making a change to something and then saving the file, and then finally check in game to see if your changes worked. Some mods do indeed make use of .dll files, which require a more advanced understanding of programming, but my mod runs 100% on .cfg files. Simple text files that you can open with any text editor, I personally use notepad++. My "first mod" some 20 years ago was just opening someone else's mod and making some small change for myself, I'd probably guess that's how most modders get started. So start there! Just don't upload/share anything until your work is truly unique from those you learned from, and always give credit where its due. Thanks for the answer! I'll go have a looksy when I feel up to it and see what I can do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPOHbl4 Posted November 12 Share Posted November 12 @SpudNutimusWould you be so kind as to share this patch with the community? OP said here multiple times that he wouldn't mind user patches. I feel like it's what's holding this awesome mod back On 9/24/2024 at 10:21 PM, SpudNutimus said: @_Zee Hello, I know this is a big ask but... would you be open to letting me adopt PBC for future maintenance? I know the mod is basically done and still works fine as-is, but it hasn't been updated in years and a few things have become slightly dated; I could keep up with any necessary dusting when it comes to mod compatibility (finish off Restock+ compatibility and update some other bundled patches to more current mod versions) and deal with any future pull requests, etc., as necessary. If you don't want that then that's fine, just figured I'd ask. @_Zee I hope you really consider SpudNutimus's offer to continue your legacy=) It is understandably hard to let go of something you've put so much time and work into, but wouldn't it be better for your project to live on instead of abandoned and forgotten? In any case thank you so much for this definitive way of playing KSP career - it's so much fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzlebop Smith Posted November 12 Share Posted November 12 PBC is one of my favorite mods. I sometimes like to employ it in ways that conflict with other mods I am wanting to utilize for a certain playthrough experience. It typically only makes significant impact early one as you are developing your fledgling space enterprise. It would be cool if some new spirits were injected into the idea, with the death of KSP2 a new wave of KSP1 modding is underway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I put out that offer though my life has gotten really busy, and honestly I'm not sure I'd have the time to put into it at this point. Apologies.

Real life should always takes priority, especially when talking about volunteer work such as mods. I wish you success with whatever you're dealing with in life! Hopefully @_Zee will eventually open this mod to community and some kind soul will continue his legacy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
