    Using a Steam Collection

    The easiest way to add multiple mods to the Steam Workshop page is to use a collection from the Steam Workshop. We have a guide for creating your own collection here: https://pingperfect.com/index.php/knowledgebase/666/Creating-a-Steam-Workshop-Collection.html

    Using an ARK mod string

    In the GameUserSettings.ini file, you list your mods in a comma seperated string. For example:

    538986229,821530042,1404697612,1522327484

    Following this process will not actually install the files to your service. It just shows them as installed in the Steam Workshop page, allowing them to be managed from there.

    Follow these steps to use a string like this to add mods to the Steam Workshop page:

    1. On the main page of the gamepanel, go to the actions tab and click "Import Mod String"
    2. Enter the mod string for your service into the "Mod string" textbox. 
    3. If the files for your mods aren't already present on the server, it is recommended you tick the updatable check box. This will make getting the files easier.
    4. Click execute. The tool will now automatically add any mods to the Steam Workshop page, skipping those that are already there.
    5. Once the process is complete, go to the Steam Workshop page. If you ticked "Updatable", all newly added mods will show as requiring an update. Click update all. This will download and install the files for the newly added mods. 
      If you didn't check the "Updatable" box, you can install them all using the "Reinstall All" button

    If you have issues with this, please contact support via a ticket.
