[Request] Script for mods compatibility.

[TETRISOID]

There are too many mods.

And some mods using same file (like rpg_param.xml).

But there are no mods, what uses all this values from that file.

For example, "archery mod" uses only 1 param "AimSpreadMax".

Or "herbalism mod" uses other 1 param "HerbGatherSkillToRadius".

My request is to develop and create lua-script for xml files, that will use only that few param you need.

And wont interfering with other mods uses same file but different param.

Maybe something, like that, what was used in (Factorio) :

data:extend({

    {

        type = "bool-setting",

        name = "test",

        setting_type = "test",

        default_value = true,

        order = "ad-a",

    },

})

I was thinking something is needed as well, but was thinking more akin to witcher 3 script merger, but alas I do not know how that is coded

Yeah this is much needed.

The Witcher 3 script merger uses KDiff3 for the actually merging, and then just puts the merged scripts in their own mod folder. This would be pretty easy to do manually, you'd just have to extract, merge with KDiff3, and re-pak the scripts each time there's an update to an affected file. I'm sure it would also be easy to do that with KDiff3 and the 7-Zip command line, but creating such a solution is beyond my skill level.
