including add-ons in gamemodes
Mysteroo:
So I know it's possible to include add-ons inside a gamemode so that you don't have to download a billion different files just to get one gamemode to work. But I don't have any idea how to do it
Would someone mind making some sort of short tutorial or something? I figured this belonged here more than help because I'm asking for someone to make some sort of topic, maybe in modification discussion, teaching how to do this, sort of like some of the other reference topics in there.
However I don't have much scripting knowledge. I know this is most likely more than just simply packaging things right, and I would normally need some scripting knowledge to do this.
But maybe someone could at least write out the needed code and such to include a mod inside a gamemode sort of like a template, where I would fill in the blanks with the names of certain files and that sort of thing.
I want this because I'm making my own gamemode and it may end up needing quite a few files to work right, and I really don't want to have a huge list of required add-ons. Because then people just won't download it.

I think you just include the script and files in the addon's zip. :s

Wish it were that easy, but it doesn't quite work that way :/

some kind of text in the gamemode.txt that activates the addon.
