Ashen Age - Core v1.0.0

Getting Started

Welcome to the Ashen Age documentation. Ashen Age is split across five separate Path of Titans mods so server owners can pick only the parts they want. Everything is built around Ashen Age - Core, which is required by all of the others.

The Mods

Ashen Age - Core (Required)

The server administration suite: the "Ashen Age Manager" creator mode object, the command system, disease, weather, disasters and events. Every other Ashen Age mod depends on Core being installed and set up.

Mod SKU: UGC_M_GW7Y66KE3Z_SK
Status: Public

Ashen Age - Decorations

Decorative props and creator mode objects for building out your server's world.

Mod SKU: UGC_M_2G7W2250WK_SK
Status: Public

Ashen Age - Minigames

Community minigames driven by the Core command system.

Mod SKU: UGC_M_YVEXYYV0GX_SK
Status: Not yet public

Ashen Age - QoL

Quality of life additions and interface improvements for players and admins.

Mod SKU: UGC_M_590DNNK7WQ_SK
Status: Not yet public

Ashen Age - Overhaul

Gameplay and balance overhaul content.

Mod SKU: UGC_M_347588378W_SK
Status: Not yet public

Core is mandatory: Core holds the "Ashen Age Manager" creator mode object and the command system. Running Minigames, QoL, Decorations or Overhaul without Core installed and configured will leave most features broken.
Availability: Only Core and Decorations are publicly released right now. Minigames, QoL and Overhaul are still in development and are not yet available to add to your server.

Installation

Installation Steps

  1. Open your server's GameUserSettings.ini file
  2. Add the SKU for each Ashen Age mod you want to the [PathOfTitans.Mods] section, with Core always included
  3. Restart your server to load the mods

Core on its own:

[PathOfTitans.Mods]
                EnabledMods=UGC_M_GW7Y66KE3Z_SK

Core plus Decorations (one line per mod):

[PathOfTitans.Mods]
                EnabledMods=UGC_M_GW7Y66KE3Z_SK
                EnabledMods=UGC_M_2G7W2250WK_SK

Basic Setup Instructions

The core of Ashen Age is the "Ashen Age Manager" creator mode object, shipped in Ashen Age - Core. It plays a very important role in managing the players and the commands, without it you will run into issues with 90% of the commands.

Step-by-Step Setup

  1. Spawn the Manager Object
    Spawn in the "Ashen Age Manager" Creator Mode Object (from Ashen Age - Core)
  2. Wait for Initialization
    Wait around 15 seconds for it to vanish
  3. Save Creator Mode
    Use /SaveCreatorMode NAME to save a creator mode save with the manager object in where NAME is the save name of your choice
  4. Access Game Configuration
    Open Game.ini in your Path Of Titans server either via your file explorer of choice or via your hosted servers management panel
  5. Locate Game Mode Section
    Find the [/Script/PathOfTitans.IGameMode] section
  6. Add Configuration Line
    Add the following line to it: DefaultCreatorModeSave=NAME where NAME is the name you chose on step 3
  7. Complete!
    That's it! Now when your server restarts the Ashen Age Manager object will be present and you will be able to use the commands.
Critical Setup Step: The Ashen Age Manager object is essential for 90% of Core's commands to function properly. Without completing this setup, most features will not work.

Game.ini Configuration

Ashen Age - Core uses a custom [AshenAge] section in your Game.ini to toggle features on and off. Add this section to enable the features you want:

[AshenAge]
                ScentSystem=true
                MinigamesEnabled=true
                AllowBoneSpawning=true
                DisastersEnabled=true
                AllowFloatingDamage=true
                WeatherSystem=true
                DiseaseManager=true
                HardcoreMode=false
