Steam Workshop tokens
These tokens are used to get the mod to work on Steam Workshop.
Token | Arguments | Usage | Description |
---|---|---|---|
STEAM_TITLE | string | Required | The title of the mod on Steam Workshop. |
STEAM_DESCRIPTION | string | The description of the mod on Steam Workshop. | |
STEAM_TAG | string | Any number can be used. | |
STEAM_KEY_VALUE_TAG | string1,
string2 |
Any number can be used. | |
STEAM_METADATA | string | ||
STEAM_CHANGELOG | string | A changelog for the version you're uploading. This should be different each time you update a mod, and only include the changes in the new version. Steam Workshop congregates all version changelogs, so a full changelog can be seen there. | |
STEAM_FILE_ID | string | Required (subsequent times) | Connects the mod to an entry on the Steam Workshop.
Generated automatically the first time you upload a mod to Workshop, do not include it manually. If you upload a mod with an existing STEAM_FILE_ID token, it will update the Workshop entry connected to the ID. You can presumably only do this if you're the original uploader of said mod. |
