Monster Knockout Workshop Uploader Rework

Monster Knockout Workshop Uploader — Rework

New:

Locked Preview Image Folder

• Added a dedicated Preview Image folder for thumbnails:

  • C:\\Users\\\\AppData\\LocalLow\\SpotPixle Studios\\Monster Knockout Workshop Uploader\\Preview Image\[/c]

• The preview image selector is now locked to this location (so thumbnails must be chosen from that folder).

Thumbnail Requirements (Enforced)

• Workshop preview images are now validated and must be:

  • 640×360 (exactly)

  • PNG or JPG/JPEG only

  • Under 1MB

• The uploader will show clear errors if your image doesn’t match the rules.

Selective Updates (Update Only What You Want)

• Updating an existing Workshop item no longer forces you to re-upload everything.

• Update mode now includes toggles so you can choose what to update:

  • Title

  • Description

  • Content (JSON)

  • Preview Image

  • Tags

  • Visibility

• If Content/Preview are not enabled, the uploader won’t re-upload them.

Optional “No-Navigation” Preview Selector (Dropdown Mode)

• If enabled in the UI, the uploader can show a dropdown list of valid thumbnails found inside the Preview Image folder.

• The dropdown only lists images that already pass the rules (640×360 PNG/JPG), preventing invalid picks.

• Added convenience buttons (if hooked up in UI):

  • Open Preview Folder

  • Refresh Preview List

  • Display the current preview folder path in the UI

Improvements

• Safer Update Mode behaviour

  • If you turn off Content/Preview updates, the uploader clears any selected file so you don’t accidentally re-upload it.

  • Fields and controls become interactable/non-interactable based on what you’ve chosen to update.

• Improved upload staging

  • Content staging is only created when Content is being updated.

  • Optional setting to stage the preview image inside the content folder (useful for certain Workshop setups).

• More reliable Workshop operations

  • Automatic retries for Steam “Busy” responses during Create/Submit.

  • Workshop legal agreement prompt opens automatically if Steam requires it.

Workshop Management Features (Included)

• My Uploads tab with:

  • Item list showing title, item ID, tags, and preview thumbnail

  • Buttons for:

    • Edit

    • Open on Workshop (Steam Overlay)

    • Delete (with confirmation)

• Tag system:

  • Tag dropdown auto-populates from Workshop scanning (plus default tags)

  • Max tags enforced (4)

  • Tag chips UI for quick removal

• Visibility options:

  • Public / Friends Only / Private / Unlisted

• Upload includes:

  • Change notes field

  • Progress/status readout during submission
