I installed mods in Automation for the Steam version and have noticed a LOT off LUA errors. Any way to get these mods out or am I screwed? :twisted: :oops:

There is no good way, but you may get around reinstalling the full game by just deleting the relevant folders in ...\Steam\steamapps\common\Automation\assets\meshes
Then you "verify game cache" and Steam will download all vanilla files that are missing.

Maybe there would be a good idea to add a "Mods" sub folder in the ...common\Automation\assets\meshes folder, with all the folders added, but with only the mod files in them.
Then in the game you could have a button that hides all the modpack fixtures and bodys. Perfect for the challenges that don't allow mods.

As you know from the Little Dev Updates, we are going to implement proper mod support via the workshop, so yes, there will be much better handling of mods in future versions.

Thanks, KillRob. I tried that shortcut but I ended up re-installing. No worries. Markon Motors will be back.
