Modding Power Generating Units
« on: October 17, 2024, 05:16:46 pm »
Is it possible to mod power generating units like waterwheels or windmills? I would like to create something that coverts ore into energy. Is there a way to hack this into the game?

Only with a tool like DFHack.

DFHack itself once had steam engines as an optional mod.

It's not currently working, but the source code still exists.

You'd need some strong C++ skills and some intense study of DFHack internals and the mod.
