ComponentBundler

ComponentBundler

Utility mod for Lethal Company (and any game with BepInEx) which allows you to bundle your own components with built-in ones.

The main use case of this mod is to add a NetworkBehaviour before the NetworkObject is spawned.

The reason we can't just patch a script on the target NetworkObject to do this is because of two reasons:

• NetworkObject spawning occurs after Awake but before Start.
• Most MonoBehaviours in the game don't have an Awake method, and it cannot be added through runtime patching (Harmony).

This mod works by running a preload patcher which adds Awake methods where it is needed.

Usage

No code is required!

• Install the mod through and add it as a dependency for your mod.
• Add a file to BepInEx/plugins// called bundler_config.json.
• The content should be a JSON object, where the keys are namespaced names of the game components you want to target. The values should be arrays of namespaced names of your components that you want to bundle. For example:

{

"FlashlightItem": [

"MyMod.FlashlightAddition"

],

"GameNetcodeStuff.PlayerControllerB": [

"MyMod.Player.PlayerComponent1",

"MyMod.Player.PlayerComponent2"

]

}
