mod Need coding help with very large DLC sized mod (Rift Together)

[Feything]

Hi, I happen to have created an extremely large mod with entire new biomes but as it stands I'm pretty much alone in the creation of this mod. It's a huge passion project of mine but the problem is that I'm quite under-developed when it comes to programming. I know a bit more about how to code DST than your average modder but it's getting to the point I just can't do everything anymore.  

I already do everything from scratch, down to custom mobs, animations, art, sound, and the sloppily cobbled together code itself.

I really really need an experienced programmer, as I just don't have the programming know it how to quickly get things done, and I'm terribly slow if I do competently get something to work. Time I could had used to animate, do art and put attention to other mod projects I'm helping to work with. If you can also draw close to DS style that's also a plus as there's no such thing as too many artists.

My mod is called Ratchet and Clank: Rift Together. It's heavily based off of the Ratchet ad clank series but also made specifically to accommodate those who aren't familiar with the series.

My Roadmap:

 

There are Mobs and custom character animations created from scratch. With a lot more mobs I'm in the process of making as I'm a experienced animator and know how to use spriter and animate anything in don't starve very well as if it's a third appendage.

Above is a clickable link of some examples of handcrafted animations. Only some animations are shown, as there are custom character animations ranging from hoverboots, new drinking animations, more in progress fully custom mobs and much more.

I'm very active on the project. If people are willing to help assist me, then I am wholeheartly willing to help anyone else with their projects especially when it comes to handcrafted custom animations, art and possibly mob creation. As I'm a very experienced spriter user and animate every single day.

You can find the Rift together mod link below as the image in my post next to shoetime. As I'm also the designer/mob builder of shoetime's mobs, but did half the animations there as well.

Please message me if interested, as I really can use some help here.

Does this mean you can have the help of artist who doesn't know how to code or you're looking for a coder and if the coder is an artist too it's even better ?

I'm primarily looking for coders, but if they can draw that's a plus. Though I definitely won't refuse artists who aren't proficient in scripting too, as art takes a while and it'll shave off a lot of asset work I would have to do. Which is a lot ;A;
