I want to put in more modules, how do I do this?
For C modules:
To add modules to a zone, to be loaded on startup, edit your conf/modules.conf file, and add a new line containing filename:modulename. The filename part must be the name of an .so or .dll file in the zone's bin directory.
Or you can dynamically load the module in-game by using ?insmod filename:modulename. You can use ?help insmod for more info.
For Python modules:
Mostly the same thing, except you must use ?insmod <py> modulename or <py> modulename in modules.conf. The modulename should be the name of a .py file in your zone's bin directory.
I added a custom module, why aren't the commands working?
You can add new commands to the group files found in conf/groupdef.dir. Prefix cmd_ to the command to allow users to send the command publicly and privcmd_ for team and private targets.
