Embbed JSON file in a MOD

Closed this issue · 4 comments

Hello,

I would like to be able to include JSON files in my MOD and allow the base project read them, is there a way to do that?

From what I found, even if JSON files are present in the MOD project, they don't seem to be imported in the MOD export (not even in the asset bundle?).

How would you do that?

Thanks in advance for your answer!

Hi,

TextAssets are currently not included, but it sounds like a useful thing to have. I'll look into including them.

Instead of a JSON file, you could include ScriptableObject assets.

It would be great yes! 👍

For ScriptableObject too, but I will still need to be able to read JSON files in my case.

I was wondering, is it possible to use Addressable assets from a MOD exported by ModTool in a project?

Wouldn't be the best way to easily use content from a MOD?
