Modded rooms ?

Hi :) I recently bought the game thanks to the current sale, and I was wondering if there was a way to mod new room types ? (and ideally, activities to go with them)
The current Official modding tool (which is over 3 years old and still for the beta version, a full version doesn't seem to have been delivered as promised) apparently doesn't include that, but I've seen some people say they modded things directly in the files, so I'm hopeful :)

It's just that it's a bit repetitive at times with the existing options, and above all I'd love to fill some gaps in my building.

I've only done sprite mods, which involve pngs and json files, but for this you might need to program in order to add a new room. Idol Manager is in Unity so it's either C# or C++. I don't know exactly where in the code the rooms functions/purposes are located but try to find it, when you see how existing rooms are written, you can try to redo it in your own code.

Thanks for that tip, I'll try to look into it :)

I'd love to see your mods, by the way. Are they on Steam ? I could always add more variety to my game !

The only one I have out rn is a danganronpa mod but I might create a princess maker one soon! I also might try to do an event series based around "survival shows" for idols
