[LAN-Server][Mods] How configure so MODS will server sided?

[AzrieLxx]

I able to use client side mods (always on). I try to put this mods on server directory but I can't activated client sided. How ever, I want mods is in server side, so client that connected will forced to download current active mods.

 

Any Helps appreciated.

 

Thanks.

@AzrieLxx, I'm pretty sure there's no way to do this, other than having a separate copy of the mod on the workshop that has all_clients_require_mod. But you could try changing that in the modinfo on the server's copy I guess? (and set client_only to false)

[AzrieLxx]

Those "all_clients_require_mod" and "client_only", where I put it on?

 

"dedicated_server_mods_setup.lua"

or

"modsettings.lua" ?

Hi Azriel,

 

i think you need to put this on the command line (but i have not test this option so i don't know if this works)

 

example:

 

./dontstarve_dedicated_server_nullrenderer -port xxxxx -players 8 -conf_dir configs/server1 -skip_update_server_mods

 

or

 

./dontstarve_dedicated_server_nullrenderer -port xxxxx -players 8 -conf_dir configs/server1 -only_update_server_mods

Works.. Thanks!

To make it clear. If using Launch option just put it together in line with others :
 

If using shortcut, put in behind file location :

Right Click ->
"D:\dst\bin\dontstarve_dedicated_server_nullrenderer.exe -conf_dir survival -lan -port 11000 -skip_update_server_mods"

 No, you have to go into the files for a specific mod and edit the modinfo

Does it works? I put those command line on dedicated command launch and it works.

@AzrieLxx, yeah, you'll want to put -skip_update_server_mods into your command line parameters, or simply remove the mod from the dedicated_server_mods_setup.lua file. Then as rezecib mentioned, you'll want to try updating the modinfo.lua file in the mod to have all_clients_require_mod = true, and client_only_mod = false.

I am having the same issue with different character mods, what command line parameter are you referring too? I have a computer illiterate friend that doesn't understand how to install mods, it would help greatly if they just were set up and downloaded when he joined the server.

What issue exactly? The OP was basically requesting a feature, which wouldn't be relevant to character mods, which should always be automatically downloaded when someone joins.
