= 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 [[Documentation/Engine/Units|Units documentation]] page.

= Recommendations =
* When basing your model on the original ones, add to your mod also <strong>ALL</strong> 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 <strong>ALL</strong> 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 <strong>HIGHLY RECOMMENDED</strong> 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.

* Attribute 'glass_config' was made obsolete as interior glass configuration is now in separated file: '''/def/vehicle/interior_glass_config.sii'''.

== Interior glass config ==

Whole configuration about glass panes is now accessible at '''/def/vehicle/interior_glass_config.sii'''.

Additionally there are three new attributes introduced with improved rain wiping algorithm:
* [float] '''no_rain_ageing_factor''' - Modulator of aging of the drops with low or no rain intensity. The lower the value within <0,1> range, the longer will take the drops to dry when there is no rain or is at low intensity.
* [float] '''drops_wiping_factor''' - Factor in range <0,1> defining ratio between drops being moved vs. wiped, where 0 means all drops will be moved and 1 means all drops will be removed when in contact with wiper.
* [float] '''drops_moving_offset''' - Offset in meters for which drops are offset in the direction of wiper movement.
