Tier Overflow Lib


TierOverflowLib is a library mod for Satisfactory that extend the game by adding a scroller to the list of tiers. This allows modders to add new tiers beyond the default limit and unlock them via a method or a Blueprint node.


Features

- Scrollable Tier List: Adds a scroller to the tier list, allowing for an extended number of tiers.
- Dynamic Tier Addition: Enables adding new tiers beyond the default game limit.
- Unlock Mechanisms: Unlock new tiers using a method call or a Blueprint node.


Changelogs

- v1.0.2:
- Added 1.1 support

- v1.0.1:
- Fixed a miss click which made the game crash when loading the mod (empty subsystem field)
- Added a setting "AlwaysShowTierArrows" which always show the tier arrows, even if there is no new tier.

Usage (for modders)

First you need to clone this repository into the 'mods' folder of your modding UE project ('mods' is in the same folder as the .uproject file)
Then run the project with Unreal Engine, rebuild TierOverflowLib if the prompt which asking it appears.

Adding New Tiers

To add a new tier to the game:

1. Simply create a new schematic in your mod and put it the TechTier int of your choice.
2. Add the schematic in your mod's GameWorldModule as on the modding docs.

Unlocking Tiers

Unlock new tiers using one of the following methods:

- Blueprint Node: Use the `ApplyMaxTier` Blueprint node in your Unreal Engine Blueprints.
- Method Call: Use the `UTierOverflowLib_BPNodes::ApplyMaxTier` method in your mod's code, fill it with an instance of the session's Phase Manager and Schematic Manager, then with an int for the tier you wish to unlock.
