MimicAPI

A reflection / helper library for building MelonLoader mods for MIMESIS.

Building

The build resolves the MIMESIS and MelonLoader assemblies from a local game install. Point it at your install in any of these ways (highest precedence first):

1. Command line: dotnet build -c Release -p:GamePath="D:\Steam\steamapps\common\MIMESIS"
2. Environment variable: set MIMESIS_PATH to the game install root.
3. A Directory.Build.user.props next to MimicAPI/Directory.Build.props (gitignored - not committed):

   <Project>
     <PropertyGroup>
       <GamePath>D:\Steam\steamapps\common\MIMESIS</GamePath>
     </PropertyGroup>
   </Project>

4. Auto-detection of a Steam install in the common locations.

Then build:

dotnet build -c Release

See MimicAPI/Directory.Build.props for details, including overriding GameAssemblyPath / MelonLoaderPath / PluginsPath directly for non-standard layouts. The game is Mono/net35, so MelonLoader assemblies are taken from MelonLoader/net35.
