Mod Development

From Eco - English Wiki

NOTE: The modding system is under heavy development. APIs are expected to change, which may break existing mods! Feel free to update any information on this wiki that is out of date.

To get started on developing mods, see Installing the ModKit. For some example mods, see the EcoModKit repository.

Documentation[edit | edit source]


Documentation of the server and game client code is available at https://docs.play.eco. This is updated when the game is released to the latest version.
