Downloading mods from within the game

[EmeraldLockdown]

This would help with the complexity of downloading mods (mainly for new players), plus the speed of getting a mod downloaded (idk I think all this is pretty obv).

I honestly love this idea. Reminds me of Teardown's mod downloader.

i kind of like going onto the forums to get mods instead personally, but i do see the appeal. though that would require a loooot of work, especially in regards to connecting to a network with every mod hosted. idk if there's api that exists for getting a post that has a download attached either

the website has a built in api for accessing mod content. that's all I will say about anything (and does not imply that this will ever come to fruition).

Sounds like a good idea, but I wouldnt hold my breath, as this might have to have Coopnet tinkered with.

This could lead to various security vulnerabilities and might not be a wise decision.

If this ever was a thing, there would be an approval process, and several of us would look at it before it would be flagged to be available in game.

What about the ability to download a mod that the host is using on their server? I could see how this would be bad, like if the host didn't want you downloading a mod, but it'd be pretty convenient.

The host could possibly have a menu to choose what mods they don't want others to download

That's actually a really good idea! Nice job.
