In-game tools & mods

  • PowerTools: A quick and easy to use tool to assist with development and testing of mods, the main benefit is the easy access to all commands via a single hotkey and no need for mouse navigation
    • r console command performs a soft/quick restart of the current save game
    • rr console command performs a hard/full restart of the current save game
    • Restart Game in PowerTools ("F12") menu performs the same command as r in the console
    • Fill vehicle fills the current vehicle with any filltype
    • Spawn pallet/log/bale spawns pallets for all filltypes, all bales and the most common logs
  • PowerTools Developer: Adds console commands to print table contents to log file or save a Lua table to file
    • dtSaveTable saves a table to a file in a well formed Lua file, which means you can actually load it in the Lua interpreter and use it as any regular table, perfect for creating dummies/mockups using existing content
    • dtTable prints the table contents to the log file, uses a different algorithm than DebugUtil.printTableRecursively which performs better and supports larger tables
  • GlobalExplorer: Allows you to browse in-game tables to inspect the FS object model
    • Works best with for quick lookup, smaller tables and/or when you don't really know exactly what you are looking for (exploring the structure)
    • PowerTools Developer is a good complement to save a table to file or print it to the log once found with GlobalExplorer
  • EasyDevControls: The classic EDC with tons of useful features for modders with a easy to use UI
    • A QoL wrapper for tons of built-in console commands
    • New developer/tester friendly functions not available as console commands
    • A lot more extensive than PowerTools (with the tradeoff of being less streamlined)
  • LumberJack: The unspoken hero of super strength mode
    • Even though both PowerTools and EDC lets you to activate super strength, LumberJack is less obtrusive and waiting in the backround always ready with just a keystroke. Also, the fine tuned wood cutting makes testing easier.
