What is scrap_mechanic_dev_mode_unlocker_1.0_dirilling_thunder?

This is a small Python script for the game Scrap Mechanic. It turns on developer mode, god mode, health regeneration, and keeps achievements active while you play the Survival mode. The repository is aimed at people who mod Scrap Mechanic or want to experiment with the game beyond its normal limits. You use it by placing a file called patch.py in the folder where the game is installed, then running it from a command prompt. You also need to add -dev as a launch argument in Steam so developer mode actually switches on. The script modifies the game's main executable file and several Lua script files that control Survival mode behavior. It creates a backup of the executable before making changes. The features are straightforward. Developer mode unlocks cheat commands like spawning items, toggling god mode, and adding ammunition. God mode itself makes you invulnerable to all damage and cannot be turned off once active. Health regeneration restores your health to full every second. Achievements normally disable when you use developer mode, but this patch keeps them enabled. It also prints AI state transitions to the console for debugging purposes. The script has been tested on the newest game version dated July 25, 2026 on Steam. If the specific locations it looks for in the game files do not match your version, it falls back to searching for patterns instead. It works on both Windows and Linux through Proton. To undo the changes, you restore the backup of the executable and replace the modified Lua files, either by reinstalling the game or restoring them from Steam's file cache. One command, /exportmultishape, is registered but has no actual handler behind it, so it will not do anything. The project is released under the MIT license.
