Gameplay Mods

The base game comes with various mods that change the behaviour of the game. Most of the mods are pretty straightforward and the ingame documentation will describe what it does. But we still have a place on the wiki for various mods.

Mods which are included on the wiki

• Folding Parts pack - build in mod
• Crazy Cataclysm - build in mod
• PKs Rebalancing Mod
• Arcana and Magic Items

Obsolete mods

Some mods are listed as obsolete in the game, and cannot be used while playing. The reasons they are obsolete is probably because they are no longer maintained by anybody, and nobody has stepped up trying to keep them up to date.

If you want to continue playing with mods that have been obsoleted, you need to go into data/mods and find the specific folder for the mod you want to edit, edit modinfo.json, and just remove the line for "Obsolete: true"

(Here is the current list of obsoleted mods, this will be out of date in the future so don't trust it 100%)

Keep in mind any bugs you experience from this will not be accepted on the issue page as these mods are obsolete, and they will be removed if they do not find a maintainer so back it up if you really like these mods.
