Hey Colonizers! The official MODKIT is finally OUT! Prepare yourself to unleash your creative side!

Gettings Started

All you need for modding is Unreal Engine 4.27 downloaded from Epic Games: https://www.epicgames.com/ and on the same hard drive the AstroColonyMOD project, which you can download here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_a7RrhsYSqnMV-JhTC6RtUcS5hPwbkI9/
There are already three MOD examples:

• Racing
• Menu Music
• Cheat Console

and more examples will come soon!

Documentation

I have prepared a very detailed documentation that shows step by step how to create a mod for the game, zip it and then share it with the community https://bit.ly/AstroColonyDoc I am also working on a series of tutorials that will illustrate the process in a few minutes.

Sharing your creations

All mods can be uploaded directly to CurseForge platform via website: https://www.curseforge.com/astro-colony/mods
Soon the modkit will support Steam Workshop and allow uploading them directly from editor. To interact directly in the game, use MOD HUB [H]
Modkit has 100% functionality of the game, so you can do crazy stuff with it, like:

• designing new voxel planets
• creating space stations
• defining new recipes
• adding new devices
• overriding game rules

Please join Discord modding channel where you can share your thoughts and get modding advises. Expect more announcements soon regarding modding contests. I cannot wait to see your creations! See you soon Colonizers!
