What

A Plugin edit element is a way to load a plugin (native DLL) into the game. Creating a plugin is complicated and requires knowledge of C/C++. Refer to this wiki page to get started developing a plugin for Ty.

Usage

A plugin element is a very simple edit element. The only information it needs is the relative path to the plugin DLL.

• The plugin path is relative to the folder that the XML is placed in.
• Do NOT use absolute paths when specifying the plugin path.

<plugin>value</plugin>

Type	Name	Required	Description	Usage
value	value	Yes	The relative plugin path	<plugin>my plugin.dll</plugin>

Example

Plugin Example

<root>
  <tymod name="Super Speed" version="1.0.0" authors="Dnawrkshp" tyversion="" description="Hold control to enable.">
    <plugin>example-plugin.dll</plugin>
  </tymod>
</root>

• The value points to a relative file.

In the provided example, the dll file located at $(TyInstallationPath)/Mods/example-plugin.dll is loaded into the Ty.exe process at start and directly changes memory values.
