Adding Items to a Loot Table

[RegularX]

So is there any convenience method for adding items to a loot table?  I'm just guessing from my first day on the job but it looks like it is currently a matter of a) overwritting a script txt or b) overriding a SuburbsDistribution.lua ... neither which seems like it would survive long across mods.

 

Am I missing something?  (which is ... likely)

This thread wasn't meant for questions about modding, it's for requesting new features for the lua scripting.

 

What you are looking for is answered in this thread:

Basically all you need to do is make a file which inserts values in the suburbsdistributions table:

table.insert(SuburbsDistributions["Kitten"]["counter"].items, "NotEnoughBags.PaperBag");table.insert(SuburbsDistributions["Kitten"]["counter"].items, 5);
