MDK References

Note: It does seem like VS2022 is required for stable performance. However this is unconfirmed.

The game Space Engineers (by Keen Software House, no affiliation) supports scripting and modding using the C# language. This package aims to automatically detect the location of the Space Engineers installation, and referencing the assembly DLLs required to write scripts and mods.

This package is part of the MDK2 project.

Usage:

Simply reference the nuget package in your mod project. It should automatically do its thing.

Copying DLLs locally

By default, the assemblies are referenced directly from their location in the Space Engineers game installation folder. If you want to run unit tests, you will need to have those assemblies copied locally. To do so, add the following to the initial PropertyGroup in your project file:

 <SpaceEngineersBinCopyLocal>true</SpaceEngineersBinCopyLocal>

Keep in mind: These assemblies belong to Keen Software House. You are not allowed to pack and redistribute these dlls, this is the entire reason why this package exist to automate their reference for you.

Overriding the binary path

To manually specify where to get the Space Engineers binaries from, add a file named <projectname>.mdk.local.ini to the project directory. For example; if your project is named MyMod, the file should be named MyMod.mdk.local.ini. In this file, add the following line:

[mdk]
binarypath = C:\Path\To\SpaceEngineers\Bin

Note: Make sure you add this file to your .gitignore file, or any other version control ignore file you use. The binary path is usually different for each developer. If, against all odds, this does not apply to you, you should use the file name pattern <projectname>.mdk.ini instead.
