Can a mod have two .rul files with an items: section?
« on: April 29, 2020, 12:46:05 pm »
Can two .rul files each with an items: section exist in the same Mod's ruleset folder?

Also, if the above is possible, what determines which file's items: list is loaded first?

You cannot count on alphabetical order.

Different platforms (win/android/mac/etc.), locales (en/ru/sk/etc.) and load structures (e.g. ziploader) will have DIFFERENT order.

Don't make anything depend on alphabetical order, ever.

To keep the order as desired I'll make use of the listOrder: variable.

Thank you for the help.
