Description

A somewhat structured portable OpenRCT plugin package manager and downloader written in python.
The script gets all the plugins from the
https://openrct2plugins.org/
website by web-scraping and then from the github api.
The new version is out now and the config is now changed so it is compatible with v0.5 and above.
Keep in mind i used AI to help me make this.

Install

First you need to download python and the python dependency

pip install beautifulsoup4  

Then get the script from
Codeberg Releases
or get it from
Github Releases
Put the orct-cmd-plugin-dl.py in the openrct plugin folder
Then run orct-cmd-plugin-dl.py inside the "openrct plugin folder"
It is important that you run the script with the "openrct plugin folder" as working directory.
This is so that the plugins and the config file all get written to the plugin folder.
You can do this by openning a terminal inside the "openrct plugin folder".
You can also open a terminal, type cd "openrct plugin folder path" and then run the file.
For windows open the cmd and the cd command might need a /d, so cd /d "openrct plugin folder path".
