ubuntuaddicted Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I have a dedicated server running on an ubuntu server. I had added a few mods to the modsettings.lua file by following what the wiki said to do for mods. Like adding these lines to that file ForceEnableMod("workshop-345692228")ForceEnableMod("workshop-346968521")ForceEnableMod("workshop-352373173") I thought that it had worked and my server showed that it was mod'd in the server list but after I ran the ./update.sh command today it appears that the modsettings.lua file has been reverted to what it was before. Can anyone please help? I don't want to have to edit the file everytime.

Kzisor Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 @ubuntuaddicted, modsettings.lua is depreciated. You should now be using modoverrides.lua in the configuration directory.

Kzisor Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 @pokemonpie, as stated before it's depreciated and no longer exists.

rezecib Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 @pokemonpie, It doesn't exist by default, just make a text file here: Documents/Klei/DoNotStarveTogether/modoverrides.lua If you are using -conf_dir (which is a good idea), then obviously DoNotStarveTogether will be a different folder, whatever you set it to.

Kzisor Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 @pokemonpie, copied directly from the page I posted in the second reply: The second option is using a modoverrides.lua file. Dedicated servers can now enable mods and set mod configurations via a file in the configuration directory named “modoverrides.lua” (\Documents\Klei\DoNotStarveTogether\modoverrides.lua). An example of the contents of this file is return { ["workshop-350811795"] = { enabled = true }, ["workshop-387028143"] = { enabled = true }, ["workshop-361336115"] = { enabled = true, configuration_options = { hunt_time = 6, } }, ["workshop-336882447"] = { enabled = true }}Note, dedicated servers (and normal clients) can override the mod config options to non-valid options using this method. In this example, 6 is not a normal option for the hunt_time in the Hunt game mode mod.
