How to include IronPython (or other DLLs in general) in a mod?

[mic_e]

Has anybody ever successfuly started a IronPython interpreter from inside a mod? Or anything that comes with its own DLL file?

Why do you need one? Because there's Boo, and I think KSP actually uses it internally somewhere, even - at least the DLL is in there.

I just find python to be a whole lot more sexy.

Read up on Boo. You can write a whole plugin in it, and it is pretty much exactly as sexy as Python.

You can use whatever .net DLL you want. It should be resolved automatically when placed in the same directory as you dll, though you could also load it manually. There shouldn't be any problems, though i haven't tried native dll's yet (in case your stuff is just a wrapper for an native library). You will get some exceptions in your KSP.log, though... looks like their modloader does not like non-mod files.

That's what I am experiencing. I'm getting a typeloadexception when trying to create the scripting engine object, and that's it...
