Custom Storymode ?
« on: February 16, 2021, 03:57:52 AM »

less of a suggestion, more of a question relating to a possible suggestion

is there in the game a means for one to create their own storyline/storyquest ?

mostly thinking VN-esque exposition where one can throw in pictures along text to make their own little story mode....

Uh yeah, there's a potential in that type of mod. Someone should get to making that.

Its possible: a few mods have quests with that kind of thing in them. But its pretty difficult at present, enough so that the modding community overall hasn't built up the skillset to do it. Next version is looking a lot more promising in that regards, take a look at this blog post: https://fractalsoftworks.com/2020/08/13/personal-contacts/ About 80% of the way down it gets into some details regarding next version of doing things and it looks much more approachable.
