⚠️ This mod is a fork of the original with some stuff stripped out to make it more maintainable. Notably, there is no longer any option to override built-in game entities, instead creating new ones & removing of the custom toolbar creation and using the built-in categories.

⚠️ This mod being a fork of the original, will not have new features and updates will be delivered WHEN and WHERE possible AND WITHOUT WARRANTY.

⚠️ THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THIS WILL WORK FOR YOUR PRE-EXISTING SAVES

⚠️ You need to remove any DLLs copied to the CoI base folder from previous releases of CoI.Mod.Better, the required DLLs are already included alongside the main DLL and can be copied to the same mod folder of Coi.Mod.Better.

Download the latest release: https://github.com/NotoriousPyro/CoI.Mod.Better/releases

1. From the downloaded zip, copy the contents of the Mods folder to your Captain of Industry Mods folder.

   By default, this is Documents\Captain of Industry\Mods. You can find out where exactly by running the following in PowerShell:

   ((new-object -COM Shell.Application).Namespace(0x05).Self.Path + '\Captain of Industry\Mods')

2. Verify inside 'Mods' folder, each sub-folder has a dll file with the same name as the folder, it is fine if other DLLs are also present.

3. Enable the Enable mods options in the ingame settings or select the mod in load game menu.

1. May I rename the folder or file ? Best not to, but you can try loading it without the mod enabled first... Likely to cause things to disappear in the game...

2. Why is the mod not loaded? There are several reasons.

   1. in the settings menu the option Mods was not activated.
   2. is the file/mod path correct? It must look like this: "Documents\Captain Of Industry\Mods\CoI.Mod.Better\CoI.Mod.Better.dll".

3. How do I see that the mod is active? Here, too, there are several possibilities.

   Log Folder: "Documents\Captain Of Industry\Logs"

   1. You look in the last log and in the log should be the following to find:

      Loaded 1 extra mods CoI.Mod.Better (CoI.Mod.Better.BetterMod) <--- If this is displayed, the mod has been loaded.

   2. In the research tree there should be new research options at the top.

see you soon!

I wish you a lot of fun! Luxgor
