# Modding

Ideally, STARBLOOM will have first-class modding support. The ability to create new [tiles](./tiles.md), [creatures](./creatures.md), [biomes](./biomes.md), [systems](./systems.md), etc., and have them interact with existing systems in a simple and intuitive manner is crucial.

Part of this *already* exists in the form of the tile/biome regestries built into the core of the game. So long as a function provided by the mod can be called between the addition of these regestries to the [ECS](../implementation/ecs.md) and the kick-starting of the mainloop it should work flawlessly. In fact, the tile id system is *already* backwards-compatable (once save games are implemented) with adding/removing mods (the latter would still cause a crash as of right now, though).
