Starbound DETAILED Modding e-book(Unofficial) SB v1.3.2; E-book v0.7.7

Small introduction to Modding, Basic Lua and Documentation of almost everything.

  1. Update to version 0.7.7

    Hellession
    I am quite disappointed with this update. I planned to bring more and bring full information about behavior and mechs, due to review requests, but I started hitting problems of disinterest early into the work of this update and then I had a major private problem occur to me recently, which seriously raised the value of my mod, I'm working on, rather than this e-book, meaning I'll sadly have to leave it alone until I fully finish my mod. After my mod gets finished, the e-book will be finished...

  2. Minor update to v0.7_06

    Hellession
    So I am barely ready to update my own different mod and have been using this e-book a lot myself.
    The constant breaks and mistakes in formatting pissed me off, so I fixed them in this new update.
    I also implemented a new contribution by shadow_absorber.
  3. Minor Update to v0.7_05

    • Fixed many mistakes and errors.
    • .projectile documentation was missing tons of things. Added missing stuff.
    • Documentation for Weapon Ability lua hooks is now better
    • Hope I didn't break anything while fixing stuff
    • Added information to keys I didn't know before

  4. Huge update to v0.7_01

    Hellession
    It has been a while. I've made an update for my mod Elemental Correstialism and am now updating this and starting a special cycle.
    I will go back and forth from Elemental Correstialism and back, because right now, I've documented everything I know, but I don't know EVERYTHING. I never really made my own bosses, behaviors, monsters, NPCs, mech parts... that isn't really explained yet. I will be working on a major update for Elemental Correstialism, will learn something new, come back after an...

  5. Update to v0.4 + update frequency decline

    Hellession
    This is the last update, when in production I was working ONLY on the book in my free time. I am not impatiently going to continue working on my upcoming mega mod, which will be coming out soon on the forums(althoug already exists in the Steam Workshop) - Elemental Correstialism. This basically means that I will be posting updates to this book rarer, if they weren't often enough. I am at least halfway done through...
  6. Update v0.3.6 and for the new Starbound v1.3!

    Hellession
    To compensate for the new update of Starbound itself, the following changes were made:
    • Updated celestial.config documentation
    • New documentation for 2 new .config files added to the base folder of Starbound. I also added the documentation for rails.config, which while I was checking the configs, turned out to be missing and forgotten by me.
    • Updated versioning.config documentation to be more correct.
    Minor changes to v0.3.6
    • I fixed lots of mistakes I found...
