Module System Questions

[vuk]

I got a question about the module system. I have been directly editing txt files and using the item and troop editor to make my mod (and I am quite please with what I have). I want to implement several things I will need the module system for though. I want to know, is there anyway to use it to add new things without completely destroying everything I have done?

Thanks,

Depends.  I still use the item and troop editor, but I use the module system for everything else.  Just tell the module to build the .txt files in a separate folder, and then copy and paste the ones you want into your module folder.

That's a pretty good idea. Thanks, I will do it. I am not sure if it will work with everything, but I will find out.
Thanks again!

Great.  I'm sure it will work, because if you are only using the item and troop editors, then all the other files would be based solely at the module system.  Just make sure you don't put either item_kinds1.txt or troops.txt into your module folder.
