ModAnalyzer

ModAnalyzer is a class Libvaxy provides as a wrapper around Mod, and it allows you to easily extract any tModLoader-supported content type from any mod in question.

Using ModAnalyzer is very simple. First, create a ModAnalyzer object wrapping around any Mod object of your choice. Let's imagine we want to get every single ModProjectile Thorium has. This is how you would do it:

Mod thorium = ModLoader.GetMod("ThoriumMod");

if (thorium == null)
    return; // remember, we cannot analyze a mod that isn't loaded!

ModAnalyzer analyzer = new ModAnalyzer(thorium); // create a ModAnalyzer wrapper around thorium

ModProjectile[] thoriumProjectiles = analyzer.GetResource<ModProjectile>(); // get all thorium ModProjectiles

Done! You used ModAnalyzer to grab all ModProjectiles from thorium. You can grab any tModLoader resource type using GetResource<T>, where T is a resource type.

If, for whatever reason, you need to grab every single resource a mod adds, ModAnalyzer provides a GetAllResources method which returns a Dictionary containing all the resources. The key is the type of the resource and the value is the GetResource<T> equivalent.

For example:

ModAnalyzer analyzer = new ModAnalyzer(someMod);
Dictionary<Type, object> resources = analyzer.GetAllResources();

foreach (ModWall wall in resources[typeof(ModWall)] as ModWall[])
    // do stuff with walls!
