Good day!
I have been thoroughly enjoying the game so far. I've got a small server setup for my friends and I, with a few mods. I've realized there are a few other mods that I wouldn't mind having installed as well, but I have been hesitant to just blindly install them because of my experience with other games and bringing mods into an existing game. I assume I can make a copy of the game and test installing the mods I have in mind but wanted to ask if there is a commonly excepted procedure by the community for doing so.
My searches have really only yielded results regarding installing mods on a new save, hence my reaching out here on the forums for guidance. I am curious to know if there are certain types of mods that should only be installed on a new save (things that might affect tree and plant spawns for example, things like Wildcraft), or if it just would mean that the new plants etc would only spawn in places that haven't been visited before.
Thanks for any guidance in advance, Happy Gaming
PS: feels good to be on a forum again, the current landscape of reddit/twitter etc imploding makes me pine for the days of yore when forums were how we all communicated
