Don't want to strand Jeb in space? Strand your viewers instead!

Draft Your Viewers 2 is a mod for Kerbal Space Program 2. By authorizing the mod, it can get a list of viewers in your chat, and draft them into your Space Program any time you need them.

Features:

• Draft a viewer as a Kerbal into your Roster
• Draw a random viewer without drafting them
• Block certain accounts by username or display name

Coming Soon:

• Draft a viewer directly into your active craft
• Customizable sounds
• Support for KSP 2's built-in mod loader (when it's finished)

How to Install:

1. Download BepInEx for KSP, available on Space Dock.
2. Follow BepInEx's install instructions. Luckily, it's pretty EZ!
3. Download a release. Make sure you get one for your KSP 2 version.
4. Copy the contensts of the zip file into <KSP Folder>/BepInEx/plugin

FAQ:

• "Why did you rename it, Nifty?" - Twitch doesn't want its name in the names of other things, and I'm cool with them keeping their brand safe.
• "How do I close it?" - Workin' on that. For now, the top bar lets you drag the window around, and there's a button to collapse it into a small icon.
• "But where's the CODE code?" - There's some code for the Unity project AND some for the mod, both in the repo above.
  • For the Unity project: https://github.com/Nifty255/DraftYourViewers2/tree/master/Assets/Scripts
  • For the mod itself: https://github.com/Nifty255/DraftYourViewers2/tree/master/Mod Code/Draft Your Viewers 2

@Nifty255, could you please include an explicit link directly to the source code?   Thanks.

Though everything was in the repo originally linked, I added convenience links to folders for all code used, both for the Unity project, and for the mod itself.

Note @Gargamel Given the nature of KSP 2's systems, your team going to see a LOT more repos structured like mine, where its root folder is actually a Unity project, and the mod code is in a subfolder. Why? Because mod devs who want to make custom parts with custom behavior will need to both develop the behavior code AND use a Unity project to develop and bundle the part assets. It's no longer enough to simply export models from blender and toss them into a sub-folder.
