Hello All,
This topic is meant for mod writers of the Rusnak PHP Adoptables Script. This topic provides you some resources that will help you create modifications for the new release and will help you start writing mods for the new release before it is released and after it is released.
The first thing I will share with you is the blank file template. This file is a blank slate where you can write your modification code. The file is attached as
blank.php below.
Now that you have the blank file template, I will list some functions (with example usage) that are available to you when writing your mod to allow you to interface with the new Rusnak PHP Adoptables Script.
