Modding Questions

1. Let me see if I understand this... When one specifies a subdirectory in the 'path.txt' file, SEIV searches that directory first (for needed data files). If the necessary data file isn't found in the custom directory, then SEIV uses the default files in its own directory. Is this correct?
2. (or really 1a) If the above is true, is it prudent to copy a file to be edited into the mod directory. This should leave the original untouched, and allow use of the customized file.

Yes. Copy the desired files to a mod directory, then edit your mod files all you want.

Just set the "path.txt" to point to your mod directory (which should look similar to your se4 root directory (ie. with a "data" subdirectory))
