Adding DevMode for practicing levels and useful things (Updated as of 21.02.2025)

A hidden DevMode inside Scrap Garden's code allows you to skip levels without completing them. You can also restart the level and go to the previous level. This will be helpful in practicing specific levels.

**Update:**

I made a little update to this file. In this update, you can restart your progress in the main menu by hitting F9 on your keyboard. This opens the reset progress menu, so you need to press yes. Also, by hitting F10, your graphics will be set to low. Moving in the menu is now faster too. You know that when you go to the main menu, you need to wait like 4 seconds before you can do anything on the menu. Now you can move instantaneously in the menu! These modifications save you much time if you are speedrunning the game!

Hitting F9 in-game brings you to main menu

We decided to have the cube puzzle in the dessert level to be automatically activated in this script so no need to activate the cube anymore. **Any% (no skips) and All Collectible (no skips) are not allowed to use this. I have provided an separate link for those who are running these categories.**

**Here are the controls:**

F1 = Previous Level

F2 = Next Level

R = Restart level (If you play with a mouse and keyboard, it might be a bit challenging not to press the R key while running, but I will probably update this to another key sometime...)

F9 (In-game) = Brings to main menu

F9 = Reset progress (Main menu)

F10 = Set graphics to low (Main menu)

**Here are the download links for the files**

**Any% and All collectible runners:**

**Any% (no skips) and All Collectible (no skips)** **runners:**

(**Chrome might detect it as a virus, but trust me, it's not! This is the same file from the game! Chrome detects almost every .dll file as a virus.)**

**Installation:**

Go to **"\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Scrap Garden\scrap-garden_Data\Managed" or to the folder where the game is currently installed and there "scrap-garden_Data\Managed".** Now make a copy of the existing **Assembly-CSharp.dll** (or rename it to something) and put the downloaded **Assembly-CSharp.dll** into the **Managed** folder.

That's it! Now, it should work normally with the addition of a DevMode. **Ensure you have the older patch of the game (See: [https://www.speedrun.com/scrap_garden/guides/2ojl4](https://www.speedrun.com/scrap_garden/guides/2ojl4)), or else the downloaded Assembly-CSharp.dll will crash the game on startup.**

The DevMode doesn't add any other features or benefits, so you can speedrun with that file. **Of course, using the functions of the DevMode while speedrunning is prohibited! Only F9 and F10 in the menu and in-game are allowed.**

Fixing performance and loading time issues

If you're having performance or loading time issues, this guide will fix most of the problems. The fix is to run the game by admin, but with this guide, this can be automated.

**Guide:**

**1.** Go to the main directory of **Scrap Garden**.

**2.** Right-click **scrap-garden.exe** and click **Properties**

**3.** Click **Compatibility** on the bar

**4.** Click **Run this program as an administrator** from the **Settings** tab.

**5.** Click **Apply**

**6.** Done!
