LaunchControl is a shared toolkit for Ostranauts mods. It gives mod authors common building blocks so they do not have to rewrite the same support code over and over. If you install LaunchControl by itself, nothing in the game will change. You only notice it when a mod depends on it.
Modders often need the same helpers: commands for testing, UI tweaks, data storage, and more. LaunchControl bundles those helpers into one library so different mods can use the same reliable features and reduces conflicts by giving them one unified way to reach those systems. When you combine LaunchControl with a mod that was built for it, the mod can plug into the game with less hassle.
These are the main systems that mods can tap into:
LaunchControl keeps expanding as modders find new gaps to fill. If you need another shared helper, reach out to bitMuse on Discord or open a pull request so we can grow the toolkit together.
