By default, Bridge Commander allows a great deal of moddability, but adding new ships requires users to download the SDK and edit the .py files. This is a tedious process, and it is unfeasible to distribute, say, an edited QuickBattle.py for every ship out there if you want multiple mods on a single installation.
This is a system to allow easy integration of mods into Bridge Commander. It replaces the static indexes of Bridge Commander with dynamic structures, thus providing the means for ship modders to easily distribute their ships without overwriting any of the end user's files.
Specifically, the Foundation currently allows the following types of mods:
Ships
Systems
Sounds
and more…
The latest version of the foundation for BC can be found in BCUT "Bridge Commander Universal Tool" an essential tool for any modder.
