ModUtil::AddKAnim

[test447]

When exactly can the AddKAnim functionality of ModUtil be called? I understand that it needs to be called before Assets::OnPrefabInit() because that method uses the ModLoadedKAnims list that AddKAnim adds animations to. Additionally I would expect that it needs to be called before any buildings, etc... are loaded because they have to be able to reference the loaded animations by the assigned strings. I attempted calling AddKAnim as a prefix of the OnPrefabInit method of Assets which caused a successful load. But as soon as the game attempted to render a building using the added KAnim it started throwing "Null build for anim!!" and kinda locked up.

Is there any guide/reference on how to use this AddKAnim functionality? I was simply trying to use it with one of the existing kanims built into the game's resource files (i.e. made a copy of the kanim, build, and texture and then loaded them as textassets and texture2d like AddKAnim expects to be called with).

Hey @test447!

This util function is actually a bit out of date from earlier mod system experiments, so I can't vouch for it working correctly at all. That said, some time in the future (at least once the current batch of supported mod features settles down) we're going to be looking at making it easier to mod content into the game.

Thanks for the reply! I'll be looking forward to seeing what modding tools are developed.
