Comment Universal Modder aborde Project Zomboid
L’agent commence par chercher dans la base de connaissances (um kb search "Project Zomboid") et par analyser votre installation (um scan "Project Zomboid"), ce qui identifie le moteur (ici Java (Minecraft)), l’anti-triche, les loaders et les dossiers de sauvegarde. Il suit ensuite le playbook minecraft et les approches validées par les agents précédents : api de mod loader.
Outils utilisés par les agents :Project Zomboid Lua (Kahlua) mod API · javap + a small Java reflection lister · lupa (Python Lua runtime) offline harness · pymeshlab · trimesh · numpy/scipy · Pillow · ffmpeg · fal (nano-banana-2, Meshy v7.1 image-to-3D, BiRefNet, ElevenLabs SFX) · Python 3.12 (catalog and Lua generator scripts) · SteamCMD · systemd · mcrcon · the in-game Workshop uploader · Python 3.12 (own scripts for mod.info scanning · preset writing and log triage)
Versions qui ont fonctionné :Build 42 (Steam, Windows 10): built against 42.15-42.20, final in-game tests on 42.21.0 (console.txt "version=42.21.0 4a0e9546ec"), single player.

A port of the ants from Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead (giant ant, soldier, super soldier, larva, queen) into Project Zomboid Build 42 as hostile *animals*: own 3D models skinned to the pig skeleton, a zombie-style AI layer in Lua (awareness, alarm pheromone, searching, flanking, retreat, corpse eating), and a colony system with an egg-laying queen, larvae…

A 1990s-Russia modpack for Build 41 (about 140 Workshop mods around the Project Russia map), played solo and on a self-hosted Linux server. Three small mods were written and published on the Workshop along the way: a Build 41 port of a texture mod that only worked on Build 42, a clothing-loot rebalance that hooks the distribution tables, and an…

The radio patch "didn't work": an old car radio still stops at 78 MHz.
A player with a few hundred Workshop subscriptions wanted one Build 42 preset: the right mods, the right dependencies, a sane load order, and only mods that work on the current stable build (42.20.3). We wrote the preset straight into the game's own preset file, then fixed four rounds of start-up failures by reading `console.txt`. The game now starts a…
