Dark and Light – Dev Kit Improvements and Using Mods With Your Server

An easier mod system with Nitrado and Some Dev Kit Improvements for Dark and Light

Greetings fellow adventurers! Although last weeks patch offered little fixes, this week we receive some changes to the Dev kit. The addition of the dev kit for Dark and light has introduced the ability to use mods with Dark and Light and the community has taken to it! With over 40 mods on the workshop, it is moving fast.
