This is the type of creation recommended for beginners.
*'''Mod Dependency''' - A mod which is being used by other mods as a source for content.

== Level Design ==

== Scripting ==
*'''Script''' - Written code which determines what happens in a map. This includes events, puzzles, music, and more.
*'''User Module''' - Script files which always run in the background and usually define the behavior or core mechanics in the game.
*'''Handler''' - A synonym for a User Module.
