A Mod which mods a Mod

[Meakin]

At first, I really like your mod and played it several times on different servers.
Now there is a new server, which I wish to support.
The problem is that the story of this server is different from the discovery mod story.

So my idea was, because otherwise the server has to use 4.84, to make a second miniMod, which is
loaded after Discovery and sets i.e. the relationships between Liberty and Rheinland back to normal.

Making a Mod which edited the relationsships between factions is no real problem for me, but there are some problems left:

a) First important thing: am I allowed to do this? Becuase the creators of Discovery have used lots of time to make there wonderful mod and so the maybe dont like it when I try to edited some things on it.

b) Is it possible to make a Mod which edited an existing Mod (I think I just have to modificate the mod data and not the vanilla files)

c) Is it possible to load after Discovery a second mod which replaces some files, which were edited before by Discovery, or would the game crash or would flmm forbid these

(The Idea is overtaken from Oblivion were it was possible, through a different order of mod loading to edit files which were before edited by another mod)

[Curios]

Activating few modes that changes the same content can lead to game crushes, im for avoidance of such methods.

Just a quick imo.

For personal use, I don't think anyone minds. (I tinker with the mod files all the time for OpenSP useage, just remember to reverse them before logging on. I forgot to do that once and my Firefly ended up 100k off the edge of the map after 2 seconds of cruising. I flew back the long way. 50,000mps cruise = bad)

But if you're running a server for other people to play, then probably not a good idea.

It's fine if you manage to get it working without bugs.

Make sure you credit the people who made Disco. Modifying it for use on your own server should be fine if proper credits are given.
