That said, the Steam Workshop is chock-full of great mods, and I'm going to mainly focus on the ones that make gameplay tweaks rather than purely cosmetic additions (content packs are great, of course, but they're not really “must-have.”)Īs far as I've been able to gather, these all work with Industries, but as always with modding your game, these aren't officially supported, so if you install a mod and it breaks your game, you're on your own. And the official ones are far better (and more compatible!) than downloading a mod, so if you care about that stuff, just buy Mass Transit. Others, like some of the anti-crash and performance mods, found themselves incorporated into patches as the devs had a “why didn't we think of that?” moment when someone showed up their QA team.Īnd still others, like Improved Public Transit, were effectively rendered obsolete when those options showed up in DLC packs, most notably the Mass Transit expansion. The guides below explain how to do certain things.Some of the essential mods, like unlimited ore and oil, have been built into the game itself as menu options choose-able at the beginning of gameplay. The main difference is that the basic mods are automatically compiled at runtime and the more advanced mods need to be compiled by you.Īll pages/links with a are also relevant for basic mods (everything else is for advanced modding).
The first type of mods are basic mods that only use the Modding API and the second type are advanced mods that modify the game further by using the actual code of the game.
You don't have to be a good programmer to make your first mod if you follow the guides.īefore getting started with modding it's important to know that there are two types of mods. All of the guides below require you to have a basic knowledge about programming C#.
