    I noticed on an RP server, they edited the outpost as an RP hub. I made my own outpost files (png, and .dungeon) so how do I actually implement it in the game so I can see it? I have no knowledge in dungeon modding. Thanks!

    1. Go to ..\Steam Games\SteamApps\common\Starbound\giraffe_storage\mods

    2. Make a folder and call it whatever you want.

    3. In that folder, make a file called MyMod.modinfo (The file extension is .modinfo, so make sure you have file extensions turned on in the folder options)

    4. Open that file in notepad or some other text editor (Noitepad++ works well for modding.) and put in the following:
    Code:
    {
      "name" : "MyMod",
      "path" : ".",
      "includes" : []
    }
    
    5. Make a new set of folders within your mod folder. Folders need to mirror what the game uses, so for the outpost, you need to make ..\dungeons\other\outpost

    6. Copy your files here for your new outpost. Make sure they are named properly to overwrite the default outpost.

    8. Profit.

    This is the basic setup of all mods, so remember this.
