    Is it possible (within the scope of server modification) to add new entities or animals? I've been considering developing something but thought I'd ask experienced modders first!

    There's no way to send them to the client, so no.

    Disappointing. Could we leverage existing assets and have custom behaviors? If I wanted to use the player ragdoll and give it instructions to skitter around at night, for instance? I don't see that requiring any client files.

    You could use existing prefabs and control what they do, similar to how the Pets and HumanNPC plugins do it, but that's about it.

    I imagine similarly that custom sound files are a no-go. Too bad.

    Yup, that's how it is right now.

    Maybe one day they will allow us to create custom assets and prefabs. Sort of how like Arma 2 does it and how they allow people to create custom content.
