SODSharp 0.1.0

SODSharp

An SDK for Shadows of Doubt modding. Provides common helpers and a plugin entry point for BepInEx IL2CPP.

• NuGet: pack and publish to consume in code
• Thunderstore: ship as a dependency mod that others can reference

Installation (as Thunderstore dependency)

• Upload the contents of ModFolderContent (plus the built DLL from bin/Release/net6.0/) as your Thunderstore package.
• Other mods add a dependency: "shane-SODSharp-<version>" in their manifest.json.

Installation (as NuGet)

• Add the NuGet package SODSharp to your mod project.
• If you also use SOD.Common, you can set MSBuild property SODCommonDll to point to your local SOD.Common.dll:

<PropertyGroup>
  <SODCommonDll>..\path\to\SOD.Common.dll</SODCommonDll>
</PropertyGroup>

Requirements

• BepInEx 6 (Unity IL2CPP)
• UniverseLib (IL2CPP)

Usage

• Implement your patches and initialization within your mod.
• SODSharp.Plugin initializes UniverseLib and applies Harmony patches.
• Use the general message helper SODSharp.UI.ScreenMessages to show messages without taking a hard dependency on game assemblies:

// Simple broadcast using defaults (notification + building icon + white)
SODSharp.UI.ScreenMessages.Broadcast("Hello, Detective!");

// Specify message type and icon by enum name (from the game):
// messageType: values from InterfaceController.GameMessageType
// icon: values from InterfaceControls.Icon
SODSharp.UI.ScreenMessages.Broadcast(
    text: "New lead discovered",
    messageType: "notification",
    icon: "magnifyingGlass",
    r: 0.9f, g: 0.9f, b: 1f, a: 1f
);

This helper uses reflection at runtime to resolve types from the game and SOD.Common, so it compiles even without direct references to Assembly-CSharp.dll.

Build

# Build + (auto)pack
 dotnet build -c Release
# or explicitly
 dotnet pack -c Release

Artifacts:

• DLL: bin/Release/net6.0/SODSharp.dll
• NuGet: bin/Release/SODSharp.0.1.0.nupkg

Optional: Local game references for IntelliSense

If you want compile-time access to game types (e.g., InterfaceController enums) locally, set GameManagedDir in your consuming project to the game's Managed folder. This is optional and not required for runtime:

<PropertyGroup>
  <GameManagedDir>C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\steamapps\\common\\Shadows of Doubt\\Shadows of Doubt_Data\\Managed</GameManagedDir>
  
  
</PropertyGroup>
