Technical Details#
Hooks Used#
on_engine_load(): Initialize mod and display configurationon_mod_reload(): Reload configuration when F11 is pressedon_key_pressed(): Detect SHIFT+M keyboard combinationon_tick(): Reserved for future input polling if needed
How It Works#
The mod tracks the state of the SHIFT key and listens for the M key press. When both are detected simultaneously, it uses the game’s modify_player_cash() API to add money to the player’s balance with the category set to INCOME.
A 0.5-second cooldown prevents accidental double-activation if you hold the keys too long.
Configuration System#
This mod uses the standardized ===== MOD CONFIGURATION START/END ===== marker system, making it compatible with automated Mod Manager tools. The ui-config.ps1 file provides UI parameter definitions for graphical configuration interfaces.
Compatibility#
- Game Version: 0.10.0
- Dependencies: None
- API Requirements: ModApiV1, on_key_pressed hook
Troubleshooting#
Cheat doesn’t activate when pressing SHIFT+M#
- Check that the mod is loaded (look for “Money Cheat mod loaded!” in console)
- Ensure you’re in-game, not in menus
- Try pressing the keys separately: hold SHIFT, then tap M once
- Enable debug logging to see if key presses are being detected
No confirmation message appears#
- Check that debug_logging is enabled in configuration
- Verify the console is visible and not filtered
- Look for error messages that might indicate API issues
Money isn’t being added#
- Verify the game world is active (you’re in a game, not menu)
- Check for error messages in console
- Ensure the ModApiV1 is available (should show on mod load)
