How to Automatically have Players Download Workshop (Mods/Addons)

[fair glen]

Automatic loading of plugins when joining the server.
Do you know about such an update?

[maiden dirge]

i think there was a suggestion suggesting this.

Auto mod download is planned

i bielieve this would entail the devs or modder to create some sort of mod loader/game launcher similar to dayz/arma. would be amazing to have base game, and could probs be done by a modder, otherwise at this time all you have to do is know which mod needs to be updated/downloaded and search via the steam workshop.

I don’t think that’s required but it would take the one c++ dev like 2 months for the auto download they have planned

[normal stag]

yeah its for sure not eazy or fast, and was just a jump to alternitive that ik others have done and made it work, but im sure there could be a better way, maybe even something internal like GMOD (though if i remember correctly that was super internal and basicly what the game was built from, but shit yall may already have that to an extent tbh.)

[brazen turret]

Yeah something built in like that would probably take alot more than 2 months

[normal stag]

idk what pull or push you have with everybody but maybe this would be a request from devs to modders to be put in the base game?

[brazen turret]

not really more than others cuz they can only do so much and im good with the plans they have. not sure its something modders could do and as its planned its probably not worth it, as for how in depth of a system its gonna be to start off i dont know

right now of course cheat prevention is being worked on and then after that its vehicles and i think auto mod download might be after that. not entirely sure

[frail glen]

Wouldn't auto dowbload be a security flaw

[brazen turret]

How? it would just download from the workshop
