Edit: I should clarify. I haven't given up on the mod.

No worries, sometimes a reset is the best course of action. And that's the spirit, good luck!

IAmTheClayman wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 12:44 am How would you go about making changes to an existing script in DFU? For example, right now HUDVitals.cs has the following code:

Code: Select all

public HUDVitals()
            :base()
{
	playerEntity = GameManager.Instance.PlayerEntity;
	LoadAssets();

	BackgroundColor = Color.clear;
	HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left;
	VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Bottom;
	SetMargins(Margins.All, borderSize);
	...

I want to, as a test, have the vitals display horizontally centered. Would the way to do this as a distributable mod be to make the edits directly to HUDVitals.cs and include it in the list under Files in the Mod Builder window?

This is not possible (because C# is a compiled language) and also not ideal because two mods that change the same file would be incompatible. See the tutorials on the first page of this topic for some examples of how to make a mod.

        HUDVitals vitals;

        // Use this for initialization
        void Start()
        {
            mod = ModLoader.mod;
            vitals = GameObject.Find("DaggerfallUI").GetComponent<DaggerfallUI>().DaggerfallHUD.HUDVitals;
            vitals.Enabled = false;
            Debug.Log("[[ModernHUDVitals]] Start log hit at " + Time.realtimeSinceStartup);
        }

        // Update is called once per frame
        void Update()
        {

        }
    }
}

enums - scripts with enum types defined will fail to compile. You can still use any of the enum types already in the project. This is an issue with the mcs compiler.

generic functions / classes - similar to the above, due to an issue with the compiler scripts that try to define generic functions will not compile.

Unity Versions - mods created in newer versions of unity might not be compatible with older versions of unity. This is noticeable if the mod is in the mod directory, but doesn't show up in the list of mods.
