Making a custom set

If you want to create a custom group of balls that can show up in the shop and is on display in the gallery, you want to create a custom set.

First, make sure you've set up your development environment. Make sure you've also created a mod; once both are done, you can move forward to making your custom set :3

Setup

To make a custom set, there are 1 or 2 files you need:

• A BallSet resource at <mod folder>/overwrites/data/sets_data/<YourName-YourMod-YourSet>.tres
• If you want the set to have a custom poster, a texture at <mod folder>/overwrites/ui/set-posters/<YourName-YourMod-YourSet>.png

Next, you want to make sure those files are loaded into the game. In your mod_main.gd inside the _init() function, CUE.take_over any necessary files. (See Making a custom ball for how to use CUE.take_over.)

Properties

Next, edit the BallSet with your desired properties. Here's a cheatsheet for what the properties do:

Cheatsheet

• name: The translation key of your set's name. To keep things organized, it should be of the form SET_<your set name>
• poster: The poster texture for your set.
• description: Currently unused
• can_be_chosen_by_shop: If a set can show up in the shop.
• requires_achievement: Currently unused. If implemented, will probably be the achievement you have to get before the set is usable.
• available_in_demo: If the set can show up if the game is in demo mode.
• id: The id of this set. It should be the same as the set's filename (minus the .tres of course)
• main_color: The color to tint your poster when displaying it
