Hi everyone,
I'm looking to change nebulas in Windfall to earlier version, since there's no mod for it, and few people are asking. This is my first time working on making a mod - I have some experience extracting .xml files and making changes.
Part I'm stuck on is making changes to region definitions xml file (specifically, ToA DLC one). I assumed that my process would be this:
1) extract regions definition file
2) put file either in project root or DLC root with correct path (/libraries)
3) make changes to file, test in game, repeat <-- this part is not working, I think
4) once happy with changes, build a proper mod file with replace selectors
5) publish the mod
However, while extracting base game xml files and placing them in right folder outside package files work, it doesn't seem to work with ToA xml files (I've changed bunch of nebula and fog values for windfall sectors)
What's the quick and dirty way to iterate on DLC file changes?

Did you forget the index folder and the components.xml in there? It should point to the region_definitions file.
