IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Looking for the current playable (legacy) release instead? 👉 Click Here
(You can continue that version for existing saves, but read below before updating.)

🚀 COIExtended Unification Is Coming (Public Beta starts Aug 9, 2025)

COIExtended is moving from many gameplay modlets to a single unified core overhaul. This is enabled by the new 65,000 product limit and lets development accelerate without constant product slot compromises.

⛔ Important: The new unified core will NOT load your existing saves that were started with the old modular gameplay modlets (Solar, Logistics, World, Structures, etc.).
🎉 Unaffected: The following modlets will still remain standalone - (ItemSink, Cheats, Tweaks, StoragePlus, Difficulty)
✅ Good news: Your ongoing saves can remain on the legacy modlets (they will receive minimal compatibility patches only).
🔥 Starting a NEW game? Skip legacy—jump straight into the beta core overhaul here: COIExtended-BETA Repository

---

TL;DR (English)

• If you want to finish an existing save that uses the old gameplay modlets: stay on the latest release version (or later legacy compatibility patch) and ignore the new core for now.
• If you are starting fresh: install the unified core beta (replaces Logistics, World, Solar, Structures, and future Agriculture).
• Legacy gameplay modlets will get compatibility only (no new features, may move to a separate branch soon).
• Some modlets remain standalone and unaffected:
  • ItemSink
  • Cheats
  • Tweaks
  • StoragePlus
  • Difficulty
• Version numbering continues (no hard reset). Core overhaul simply advances from current sequence.
• Expect the legacy path to be sunset quickly—please plan your migration.

📘 Details & Action Paths (click to expand)

1. What’s Changing

We’re folding feature modlets (Logistics, World, Solar, Structures + incremental Agriculture) into a single Core Overhaul for easier maintenance, faster iteration, and coherent balance.

2. Save Compatibility

• Old saves made with modular gameplay modlets are not compatible with the unified core.
• Those saves can continue using legacy builds; they’ll just get game-version compatibility (no added content).
• Attempting to load them with the new core will break or refuse to load.

3. Standalone Modlets That Stay Separate

These remain optional and compatible with both legacy (for now) and the new core (unless otherwise noted):

• COIExtended.ItemSink (kept separate due to its cheat‑like nature)
• COIExtended.Cheats
• COIExtended.Tweaks
• COIExtended.StoragePlus
• COIExtended.Difficulty

If your save only used the above (and none of the absorbed gameplay modlets), the unification does not force you to abandon that save—BUT adding the new core mid-save is still not supported.

4. Legacy Support Window

• Goal: Retire legacy gameplay modlets as soon as practical after core stabilization.
• A temporary "legacy-compat" branch may appear to reduce confusion for newcomers.
• No promises on feature backports—forward momentum is on the unified core.

5. Choosing Your Path

Your Situation	Recommended Action
Mid/late save you want to finish	Stay on modlet version (or future compat patch)
Starting a new playthrough	Go straight to Core Beta
Curious but cautious	Backup, test beta in a fresh profile
Only using ItemSink / Tweaks / Cheats etc.	You can keep playing; no forced change yet

6. Install / Migration Instructions (Fresh Start for Core Beta)

1. Backup your existing saves.
2. DELETE your entire official mods directory (avoid leftover AssetBundles).
3. Download the latest beta core from: https://github.com/COIExtended/COIExtended-BETA
4. Place only the new core mod (and any desired standalone modlets that remain supported).
5. Start a NEW game. (Do not attempt to migrate old saves.)
6. Report issues via GitHub Issues or the game’s official Discord (#modding).

7. Versioning

• Core continues numbering seamlessly (e.g., if legacy was 2.9.4 then core might be 2.9.5-beta).
• Legacy modlets are effectively "frozen" except for required compatibility bumps.

8. Support / Feedback

• Primary: GitHub Issues (clear repro steps, logs).
• Secondary: Official game Discord (#modding) for discussion.
• Early adopters accelerate stabilization—thank you!

9. Why Not Keep Both Long-Term?

Maintaining duplicate feature paths fragments QA and blocks larger system rewrites. Unification unlocks deeper balancing, content pacing, and future expansions without product ID scarcity.

10. Risks If You Ignore Instructions

• Leaving old feature modlets alongside the new core may cause crashes, invalid prototypes, or invisible products.
• Partial installs or mixing asset bundles will corrupt loading.

简体中文速览 (Chinese TL;DR)

• 如果你正在进行一个旧存档（使用旧的功能子模组，比如 Solar、Logistics、World、Structures），请继续使用 Modlet Version（或后续兼容补丁），不要升级到新核心。
• 想开新档？直接使用统一核心公测版：COIExtended-BETA 仓库
• 旧功能子模组今后只做“版本兼容”更新，不再加新内容，可能很快被移动到单独分支。
• 以下子模组保持独立，不合并：ItemSink、Cheats、Tweaks、StoragePlus、Difficulty。
• 新核心与旧存档不兼容——请为新核心开全新存档。

📘 详细信息（展开）

1. 变化内容

多个功能性子模组合并为一个统一核心（Logistics、World、Solar、Structures，以及逐步加入的 Agriculture），提升维护与更新速度。

2. 存档兼容

• 使用旧功能子模组的存档无法在新核心中加载。
• 你仍然可以继续在旧版本上游玩；只会有游戏版本兼容修补，不会再加入新玩法。
• 不要尝试“升级”旧存档至新核心。

3. 保持独立的子模组

• COIExtended.ItemSink
• COIExtended.Cheats
• COIExtended.Tweaks
• COIExtended.StoragePlus
• COIExtended.Difficulty

如果你的存档只用了上面这些（没有使用被合并进核心的内容），暂时不需要改变。但仍不建议在旧存档中混装新核心。

4. 旧版支持时间

• 目标是尽快结束旧功能子模组的维护。
• 可能新增一个“legacy-compat”分支以避免新玩家混淆。
• 不会向旧子模组回迁新功能。

5. 选择路径

你的情况	建议操作
正在进行的重要旧存档	留在 <LEGACY_TAG_HERE>
准备开新档	直接用核心公测版
想先试水	备份 -> 新核心新档测试
只用 ItemSink / Tweaks / Cheats 等	可继续暂不变动

6. 安装 / 迁移步骤（新核心）

1. 备份存档。
2. 删除官方 mods 目录（确保没有旧资源残留）。
3. 下载核心公测版：https://github.com/COIExtended/COIExtended-BETA
4. 放入核心及你需要的仍保持独立的子模组。
5. 开新存档。
6. 问题反馈：GitHub Issues 或官方 Discord #modding 频道。

7. 版本号

• 新核心延续现有版本号序列（例：2.9.4 -> 2.9.5-beta）。
• 旧功能子模组进入“冻结”状态，仅保留兼容补丁。

8. 支持与反馈

• 首选：GitHub Issues（请附复现步骤与日志）。
• 次选：官方 Discord (#modding)。

9. 为什么不长期双轨？

双线维护降低开发效率，并阻碍更深入的系统与平衡迭代。统一后可充分利用 65,000 产品上限进行扩展。

10. 忽略说明的风险

• 混合安装旧功能子模组与新核心可能导致崩溃、原型冲突、物品缺失。
• 资源残留会导致加载异常。

决策速表

你的情况	现在下载	或者
继续一个用过 Logistics / World / Solar / Structures 的旧存档	LEGACY-AllMods	以后用 Core Beta 新开档
只用 Tweaks / Cheats / StoragePlus / ItemSink / Difficulty	StandaloneONLY	可忽略 AllMods
现在就想开新档并跟进未来内容	（更推荐）Core Beta	若不想测试，等正式核心
不确定以前装过啥	若有 COIExtended.Logistics 等文件夹：AllMods	若没有：StandaloneONLY

---

安装提示（旧版包）

1. 备份存档。
2. 先清理旧的 / 重复的模组文件夹。
3. 只安装两个压缩包中的一个（不要混用）。
4. 不要把旧功能子模组与新核心 Beta 混装。
5. 测试 Beta：先清空 mods 目录，然后只放核心 + 允许的独立子模组。

❓ Which version do I download?

Pick the ZIP that matches how you are currently playing. (These are non‑beta legacy packages. The new unified Core is only in the Beta repo for now.)

Option A: COIExtended-112-LEGACY-AllMods.zip

Use this if:

• Your existing save was started with any of these gameplay modlets: Logistics, World, Solar, Structures (and optionally Agriculture test pieces)
• You also maybe use the standalone mods (Tweaks, Cheats, StoragePlus, ItemSink, Difficulty) and just want everything bundled
  Includes: Legacy feature modlets + Standalone modlets (all in one archive)
  Purpose: Let you finish that save. Only receiving minimal game‑version compatibility updates. No new gameplay features will be added.

Option B: COIExtended-112-StandaloneONLY.zip

Use this if:

• Your save only ever used the standalone modlets (Tweaks, Cheats, StoragePlus, ItemSink, Difficulty)
• You never installed the legacy feature modlets (Logistics / World / Solar / Structures)
  Includes: Only the five standalone modlets
  Purpose: Lightweight QoL / cheats without the legacy overhaul pieces.

Want the NEW unified Core?

Starting a new playthrough or want to help test before next week’s release? Grab the beta (unified Core overhaul) here:
👉 https://github.com/Keranik/COIExtended-BETA/releases
(Requires a new game. Do NOT try to load old legacy saves.)
