After The Collapse is a fully moddable game. Here are some helpful instructions when playing with mods:
Mods can be directly installed from the Steam Workshop.
The whole thing is fairly automated. Mods you've subscribed to will be kept up-to-date and automatically installed into the game. Unsubscribe from a mod to remove it. Unless specified otherwise by the mod's author, removing a mod will prevent save-games made with this mod from being loaded properly.
Mods can be downloaded from IndieDB.
They must be installed in the game's mods sub-folder, like this
After The Collapse Folder |-> mods\ |-> this_super_new_mod/ | |-> config.json and other files |-> another_mod/ |-> config.json and other files
Delete the relevant folder to remove a specific mod. Unless specified otherwise by the mod's author, removing a mod will prevent save-games made with this mod from being loaded properly.
