Mod support?

This game sound's amazing so far! But scince a game in a topic as versatile as space people will be desprate to make their own planets! So will there be any form of mod support for this game?

 

Yeah, but a lot of people are gonna play multiplayer, so that means that people are gonna have to make more complicated server plug-ins :L

 

Editor

• “We’re looking for a really easy way for players to create their own missions, in the engine”
• There will be an in-game mission editor, that you can use with your friends (think Little Big Planet)
• Created missions will be playable online
• “The editor may or may not be post-release though”
• “Traditional” modding is planned

 

This would really depend on the community and what the game looks like. The game's code can also affect that. People can code anything though so, yeah . Mod support? Depends what the community thinks of. If there is one mod, than no mod support, but if there are ALOT of Amazing mods, the devs would put some time into coding some mod API and stuff like that.

 

Why even discuss modding right now?
We haven't even gotten a video of the game, only pictures.
There is so little to go off of at the current stage of the game that even thinking about modding is pointless. Lets just save the modding talk for when the game is actually out, or at least until we have some videos or more information on the game.

 

If we wait till later, they may forget about modding support, thus leaving us with an even harder time later. Better early then never.

 

That and scince it's going to appear anyway i wanted to be first =D

 

And that you were. I'm looking forward to possible mods for this game. Copper shortsword from Terraria, anyone?

 

I highly doubt that.
We don't even know how much they will be updating the game, how much content will be in it, what content will be in it, or anything else. Discussing mods right now will not lead anyone anywhere. Best just to wait until we have more information on the game.

 

They are coding it in C++ so that is a big plus. Everyone who codes anything knows a little C++. I Even know a little. That in theory should allow for a lot of cool mods.

 

I support editor and modding in general. If not possible with the game then maybe a few weeks later. But for a game of this type, mod tools have to be there

 

Since there's gonna be a Mission maker or mission editor, There probably gonna add some mod support if they're thinking about letting there fans make some missions right?

 

I hope its a full blown sdk Wishful thinking

 

Yes.

 

So far I don't think this game needs mods.

 

I agree with Ketra. I think this game has enough content that it won't need mods.

 

While modding is not something that everyone does. It does help in increasing the longevity of the game. I am not a very good modder myself but I like playing custom content that other people have made If it is possible then why devoid us of the chance. Unless the devs dont want to give us the chance, in which case there is no point discussing this

 

Mods will always be in circulation.. just how legal they are.

 

Clarification: By modding I was referring to custom content and not cheating as the term is used for in general. I don't support or engage in cheating but would like to create and play other people's created content if possible

 

So u mean Content mods?????????
