Warzone from scratch mod? (just curious)

[NoQ]

I wonder if it's possible to make a "complete" skirmish mod for warzone2100. That is, to start with a somewhat clean data directory, and start adding things. Maybe it would have just 1 weapon and 1 body and 1 propulsion, but it'll be fun anyway

Just is there any natural way of doing it? Mods are supposed to replace one or two files, but not to destroy everything but one or two files.

It can be done, although it is very, very, very, very hard. You will have to edit lots of script files that are in "base.wz", but they are easy to understand.

What i want to see is just a very minimal set of scripts with which warzone can start. And it should be only done once

You'd have to blank all the files in the stats directory except for the terrain modifier and damage multiplier stuff, which is hardcoded. Then you'd have clear the scripts that refer to them. See TxtEditing

Thanks! I'll check it out.
