Contributing / Building

If you wish to contribute to the project, or simply compile the DLL yourself, please see CONTRIBUTING.md

Installation / Runtime

Both the DLL and the toml file must be placed in the STFC game folder which is always located at C:\Games\Star Trek Fleet Command\Star Trek Fleet Command\default\game as the following names:

• community_patch_settings.toml
• version.dll

The pre-compiled DLL can be downloaded from the official assets hosted on GitHub Releases

Configuration

An example configuration file is example_community_patch_settings.toml and should be renamed to community_patch_settings.toml. When running this file will be parsed (see community_patch.log) and the running values can be found in community_patch_runtime.vars. If you have any problems with a setting, check the log and parsed file to verify that the setting was applied.

Problems?

The most common problems getting the DLL to work are:

1. Not installed in the correct location. This must be:

   C:\Games\Star Trek Fleet Command\Star Trek Fleet Command\default\game

2. Windows is blocking the DLL. Right-click the file and select Properties. On the General tab there will be additional text at the bottom:

   This file can from another
   computer and might be blocked to
   help protect this computer

   To the right of this, there will be a tick box called Unblock. Tick the box and then click OK to unblock the file.

3. The configuration file has the wrong name (see above)

4. The configuration file is not being parsed as you expect which is normally because:

   • Your configuration isn't being parsed
   • The configuration option name is spelt wrong
   • The configuration option name is in the wrong section
   • The configuration option value is not a true or false

   You can verify your configuration by looking at community_patch_runtime.vars and/or the log file community_patch.log.
