Hello! I have trouble creating a manifest because json is complicated. I saw a post about it and it said that it serves to make available the plugin you use in multiplayer if it does not come from the store.
At this point I asked myself: Can I publish the plugin through the store even without a manifest? And will it work in multiplayer?
Thank you!

If you publish a plugin in the store do you need the manifest?

The manifest is necessary for the plugin to be available in the online regions that allow plugins.

You should do it so those in Online regions can use it, as once I had some road modification plugins like curved roads which replaced default roads with a curved version, the creator did not put a manifest, I only had dirt roads to use.
Also if your gonna create a plugin.
Make sure these things.
PUT the item at a rank option, I should not be able to unlock highways when starting a city on easy, medium, or hard
PUT a manifest
PUT the item in a correct category, its so annoying seeing things in road but the creator won't put an interchange in interchanges but just road
PUT a name and description for an item so the name is not just $69420nevergonnagiveyouup or somthing.
