Code Guide 01

Please continue only if you have done the Unity Guide.

First:

• add the compiled dll from "Releases" to your games References folder. (
• add the dll to your Visual Studio references and disable local copy!. Otherwise it will always export the file to your build folder
• add using ScrewablePartAPI; to the top of your .cs file of your mod.

Declaring the variables:

• you need to create an object from the ScrewablePart class.
• make it public and static -> example: public static ScrewablePart exhaust_header_screwable
• do this for every part you want to have screwable.

Loading and Creating the Screws

You first load your saveFile using the static function ` SortedList<String, Screws> screwListSave = ScrewablePart.LoadScrews(this, "test.txt");

            turbocharger_big_exhaust_header_screwable = new ScrewablePart(screwListSave, this, turbocharger_big_exhaust_header_part.rigidPart,
                new Vector3[]
                {
                    new Vector3(0.169f, 0.076f, -0.022f),   //Screw1
                    new Vector3(0.13f, 0.0296f, -0.022f),   //Screw2
                    new Vector3(-0.003f, 0.08f, -0.022f),   //Screw3
                    new Vector3(-0.137f, 0.0296f, -0.022f),   //Screw4
                    new Vector3(-0.174f, 0.076f, -0.022f)  //Screw5
                },
                new Vector3[]
                {
                    new Vector3(0, 0, 0),   //Screw1
                    new Vector3(0, 0, 0),   //Screw2
                    new Vector3(0, 0, 0),   //Screw3
                    new Vector3(0, 0, 0),   //Screw4
                    new Vector3(0, 0, 0)  //Screw5
                }, 8, "screwable_nut");

`

• At the top you load the saveFile. If it returns null then no saveFile could be loaded and the values defined below will be used.
• the first parameter is your mod class (usually this)
• the last parameter is your save file name (NO PATH, only the name + .extension) everything else is made automatically)

After that:

• then you create the Parts using the Constructor
• the first value is your saveFile either null or it is a List.
• then your mod class (usually this)
• then your gameObject where you want to attach the screws to. This should always be your modapiPart.rigidPart!!!
• the 4th/5th parameter is important!!! -> read below
• the 5th parameter is the screw size -> so which wrench is needed.
• the 6th parameter is the screw model to use choose: "screwable_nut" = the nut "screwable_screw1" = screw for screwdriver "screwable_screw2" = shortest screw used with wrench "screwable_screw3" = longest screw used with wrench

3th/4th parameter:

• Here you declare the position of each screw based on the parentGameObject (so 0, 0, 0 is the center of the parent) and the rotation.
• For each screw you want to have you create an new Vector
• in the example above 5 Screws are created because the Length of the array is 5

To get the desired position create them with all 0 and when they are loaded use the Mods "DeveloperToolset" and NoClip (search them on racedepartment) to position them when ingame.

DeveloperToolset guide: press ctrl + Z to open the hud. then search for "SCREW" then adjust position and rotation to fit where you want the part to be. copy the values into the Vector(x, y, z).
