For other games, you install you mod, launch the game and use the game to upload it. Not to sure on it for x4.

Well, that is the thing,
The other games I have worked on before had a mod tool to compile loose files to a usable asset and upload to workshop.
I am unsure about this one because in the content.xml etc the workshop ID is tied to that for when I peruse workshop loose files.

But there is no way for me to know what the ID will be on workshop until the upload is created, further more I there is no GUI for setting category or desc or anything that I found thus far.
I am not saying I need a GUI tool just I am a bit confused up we are supposed to define a context.xml without the information needed.

Some of these have "last updated" etc strings which must of be made by the publishing tool except I cannot find the tool lol.
Maybe it in-game I had a small look but I have not tried to publish a mod yet.

Here you have it, everything is described here.
Tool can be found in Steam in your library under TOOLS category
Ahhh thank you.
I did not think to look in the tools section.
