Mods and Stock Features Replacements

[Gavin786]

hi Guys,

Dont really know a good title for this topic. "Mods and Stock Features Replacements" chosen eventually.

Anyway, the thing about it is that :

I would like to show the Editor a little bit of love.

There are a good few mods that do some good stuff, I think I can go a bit further maybe and tie a lot of that together.

PROBLEM IS : I dont want to put a lot of my time and effort into this if SQUAD are going to be doing the same kind of work in stock.  It is just a total waste of my time then.

And this is just an instance of a more general problem that modders face: Of their work being introduced as core game features, rendering their effort obsolete.

Is there a roadmap or such, that modders can get access to, even if we need to sign NDA that would let us know what is coming up so we dont waste our valuable time creating things that are going to become stock?

Is there any general advice on this topic from experienced modders?

I am looking for practical and not moral or philosophical advice/perspectives please.

Thank you all who took the time to look, and thank you twice to those who took the time to reply.

@Gavin786, if you are willing to sign an NDA, you can try following the link at the top of the forums and get access to the upcoming plans:

I didnt see any link to applying for upcoming plans/NDA etc.

Just looks like application for jobs at SQUAD.

What am I missing, sorry to be so obtuse ?

Sorry, it was a bit of a joke: if you want to know Squad’s secrets, the obvious answer is to join Squad.

While a little humour is nice, and often an appreciated addendum, please don't reply to the question posed in the OP unless you have a response that is both on-topic and constructive.

Thank you for your understanding,
