how do you read files? its not working for me

could you add a "check if file exist" blok? So i can create a config that does not change, but only gets created when i delete the actual config.json file?

I will add it in the next update ;)

hi lol

Thanks for fixing the server bug. I'll try it now

1.16.5 support

When I use 'Get directory' It returns a '.'
e.g. [Render thread/INFO] [STDOUT/]: [net.mcreator.aliveagain.procedures.LoadConfigProcedure:executeProcedure:36 .
(I'm using print)
or does this only work when exported?

It also works with the environment test. However, there is a problem when using it with a server from what some users said. The server bug will be fixed in the next update. However, I can’t see the problem as you cut the console log.

I worked exported, I'm currently forcing the directory path to the test environment
By the way, I'm using the client test and haven't launched a server yet
By, By the way, It's a great plugin

It works fine, when using the Mcreator 2020.5 Server/Client for test, but on my server (forge 1.15.2-31.2.47) i'll get:

←[m←[1;31m[17:02:07] [Server thread/FATAL] [ne.mi.fm.lo.RuntimeDistCleaner/DISTX
FORM]: Attempted to load class net/minecraft/client/Minecraft for invalid dist D
EDICATED_SERVER
←[m

i guess, i'll need a different version of 1.15.2?

The problem is surely caused by the Get game directory procedure block. The problem will be fixed in the next version (I don't know when).

Thanks.
Im working on my minecraft project for years now, so im cool with that.

There should be support for *.cfg* files too

Why do you want to make a CFG file? JSON files can already make a configuration file?

To many mods use *.cfg* files for config like enderio, veinminer, rftoold, exnihilo.

also its easier to config

Hello Goldorion, if this mod is working on a server in the first place, is there a way to only write on files located on servers ? (not on client side)

This is a MCreator plugin, not a mod. ;) Concerning the creation of files on the server-side only, it should be possible in the next version.

Ahah, yes indeed not a mod, can't wait for the next update then ^^

Maybe you could add auto Config.json generators

Is there a way to look for a file>

You can add "File with name "Name" in directory "directory" exist?"
this would be useful for mod to check if file already exists if not then make one :)
