Introduction
The following page contains modding guidelines for the new update of the game.
To better understand changes in units it is recommended to check Units documentation page.
Recommendations
- When basing your model on the original ones, add to your mod also ALL original /automat/ files used by it. The names of the files are generated as CityHash64 hash of theirs content so whenever we change the parameters of the material in any way, a different file will be used to store them and the original file might cease to exist if there is no other model utilizing the original parameters.
- When modifying original models, always include ALL components of the model (pmg+pmd) instead of just those you changed. Otherwise you risk crash if we change the model.
- As always when adding new objects to files which support multi-file approach (e.g. road_look.sii) it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to use suffix or prefix in the name to avoid conflicts with new objects we are adding in patches. Otherwise you might have to use the batch renaming functionality (see Batch renaming) to fix the conflicts when new patch appears.
How to convert map
- Load map
- Do rebuild (F8)
- Save map

Accessories
All core vehicle accessories have new attribute sounds. It is string array and each item has format of sound_name|sound_path. Sound path could be defined by three ways:
- empty string or "-" means no sound is played. also if the item is missing at all no sound will be plaed for given event.
- path to "*.soundref" file where sound event is written. This indirection suport easier modding if you only need link another osund wihtout actually touching sound banks.
- "bank_path#event_name" whi directly specified event in sound bank. Advantage of this is mostly simplicity.
Most of the sounds events are former attributes of old sound accessory. For detailed info about all events in each accessory see their lists below.
