The online mod repository system is working
.
How does it work ? It's simple:
when you connect to netserver, TA3D retrieves the list of available mods (ID, name, version, author, comment, url but no dependencies yet).
There is now a "mods" window you can show up in the netserver screen, the window shows the list of mods.
When you select a mod, it shows related informations in the same window and update buttons according to the mod status (installed, not installed, can be updated).
Then just click the right button to install/remove/update mods
So now we need a few mods to test it
.
in order to fill the list, just create an account on
http://www.ta3d.org (home -> register), then ask me for mod publishing rights.
Once you're allowed to publish mods, you can add and edit your mods from the downloads -> mods page (you have to be logged).
Just fill the required fields, and that's all
NB: urls must refer to http protocol (for now only http is supported, we'll add ftp support later).
