How to Mod Blocks

Modding blocks is the process of sculpting a 3D model, texturing it, and injecting it into Space Engineers. With the introduction of the Modding API, a groundwork has been laid to even more customization of the Engineer experience.

There is currently no one-stop shop for all the information on modding. Information can be found here on the official wiki and the official modding section of the forums.
