Scourge of War Boards

I am requesting that all modders please consider only releasing modded portions of the csv's.

I have noticed that if you mod only a small portion of a csv, but release the full csv (with your changes), I cannot use your mods with other mods which edit the same files, but have not edited the same portion you may have edited.

For instance. I edited gsscreens.csv, but only edited 5 lines of this file. In my mod folder the new csv if you open it only shows the five lines I edited, which means I can use other mods which changed the same exact file, but not that portion of the csv, which means I can play with more than one active mod.


I have edited 3 csv's so far, and I can combine all of my mods, even though they have edited the same csv file.

If I have confused anyone, forgive me. I'm sure someone else can explain this better than I can.

I completely understand. My first release of Bugles and Flags uses all of each file, I'll trim down my next release. Unfortunately my gui file is going to be difficult, as I use a whole lot of line changes. The rest, I think I can trim fairly easily. Thanks for the 'Heads Up', I'm sure the AWARE modders will agree to these terms.

Use files compare tool to compare your file with the original so you can see exactly which lines are changed.

That link didn't work. Try to set it again please. And thanks.

Fixed it in my post. This forum adds an extra "http://" to the beginning of links in case you were typing it instead of copying it..
