Dedicated Server Mod re downloading and deleting modinfo.lua changes

[TheDude214]

As the topic title suggest, I am having issues with a mod from workshop not allowing to keep changes in its modinfo.lua.

 

Mod Name: Dynamic Season Length

SteamWorkshopID: 405506326

 

I tried to change the min. and max. values. By default they are 5 and 50. Altering those numbers then saving and then loading the dedicated server puts them back to 5 and 50 again. 

 

I have other mods such as Mineable Gems (ID:380423963) that allow me to tinker in modinfo.lua and retain the changes that I make. Verified it by changing drop rates from 0.1 to .9 and vice versa. When loading and reloading the server changes remain the same. 

 

Anyone else had a similar issue with another mod that did not want to keep changed configurations? 

 

Any help or suggestions would be very welcome. This is driving me crazy.

Hi @TheDude214,

 

do you use modoverrides.lua for change settings of the mod?

 

example:

 

["workshop-405506326"] = { --Dynamic Season Length
    enabled = true,
    configuration_options =
    {
        ["nameofsettings"] = value,
        ["nameofsettings"] = value,
        ["nameofsettings"] = value,
        ["nameofsettings"] = value,
        ["nameofsettings"] = value,
        ["nameofsettings"] = value,
    }
},

I currently have this in my modsoverrides.lua

 

return {

    ["workshop-375850593"] = {enabled = true},

    ["workshop-343762271"] = {enabled = true},

    ["workshop-369588618"] = {enabled = true},

    ["workshop-380423963"] = {enabled = true},

    ["workshop-395420686"] = {enabled = true},

    ["workshop-384633033"] = {enabled = true},

    ["workshop-405506326"] = {enabled = true,

                configuration_options =

                {

                        spring = {

                                length = {

                                        min = 10,

                                        max = 20,

                                        },

                                },

                        summer = {

                                length = {

                                        min = 10,

                                        max = 20,

                                        },

                                },

                        autumn = {

                                length = {

                                        min = 10,

                                        max = 20,

                                        },

                                },

                        winter = {

                                length = {

                                        min = 10,

                                        max = 20,

                                        },

                                },

                }

        }

}

 

I tried to make the mod configurable in it. However it did not help and season still are between 5 and 50. Guess it goes back to modinfo.lua

 

I can post you the log.txt of when the server launches after I make modification to the modinfo.lua

 

Thank you for reply.
