Modding Guide Episode 2: Creating a Plugin

Modding Guide Top Level

In this second tutorial we’ll learn how to write a basic plugin for the game.

In modern versions of BombSquad, this is best done using cloud workspaces, which is a feature added to in recent 1.7.x versions of the game. This lets us add and edit scripts using a web ui. It is also possible to install scripts manually (depending on the platform) but we won't cover that here.

Once again, a video is worth a thousand words, so let's just watch this in action. (Just watch up on until the 'Hello From My Plugin!' shows up in BombSquad).

Now try this yourself.

Create a workspace, add an empty plugin, set the workspace as active, and restart the game to see your plugin print to the screen.

Once you've got this mastered, we'll move on to the fun part; making a game... Back to Modding Guide.
