xLib Fork is a Vintage Story mod by El_Neuman. xLib Fork is a library for Vintage Story mods that adds shared systems for skills, abilities, effects, data storage, and client-server synchronization.
Why this mod is worth installing
This dependency is useful for players whose installed mods rely on XLib Fork, while mod developers can use it as a foundation for custom progression and status systems.
What xLib Fork adds
XLib Fork works as a backend rather than a content mod: by itself it does not add a visible class, weapon, creature, or new survival mechanic. Its purpose is to give other mods a common way to register skills, abilities, and gameplay effects.
The library handles the technical side of these systems, including transferring relevant information between server and client and writing it to saved game data. This helps custom abilities remain consistent in multiplayer and persist between sessions.
It also supplies an in-game dialog, opened with the O key by default, where supported skill or ability information can be presented. The exact contents depend on the mods that use the library.
