First thanks for the DMT modding tool, has been proven great while implementing my electricity overhaul mod!
Since I've been working quite a bit with it, I was missing one main feature: being able to easily check the game logfile.
For one I can't for the life of me remember where my game stores the logfile by default.
In order to fix that, I mainly call it with the -logfile option to actually know where it is.
Now this feature request could go in two ways (or both).
Allow users to pass optional command line arguments to e.g. each game location
Force each game started via play button to log to a known location (e.g. DMT/Logs/SP-19.6b8.log)
Additionally it would be cool to have an easy way to view the logfile.
This part will probably mean the most work, since it is "unclear" what "view the logfile" should mean exactly.
I assume a configurable field where one could enter the command to be executed to view the log might work.
Guess the intention of this feature request is clear.
Would love to see any improvement in that direction!
P.s. here also a short list of "issues" that I saw
With multiple game locations, it's unclear what "play" or "play after build" exactly does
Dedicated server seems supported (as seen in my Backup folder), but unclear how it works
Also play doesn't seem to start the dedicated server (didn't investigate much here)
