Hello. In the example you can see how to write to a file and then read from it. I don't understand how to only read vfrom it. Where do I say to the code where to look for the file to read?

I have 2 issues, I can't edit any boolean subgson's since they keep being overwritten and I can't access them outside the main prodecure since its a Local Variable and whenever I try to use a Public one it just gives me errors, Like I want to access the data if the value is true or false in another procedure but I can't since it's a local one. I followed your picture guide for gson

can you plz post an example of how to only read from a file. thank you.

I was wondering if you could take a look at what I wrote on this page: https://mcreator.net/forum/64639/file-creator-plugin?page=3%2C0

Is there a way to create a folder through the procedures in this plugin or do I have to make a custom code element?

I figured it out, thank you. Although I am wondering if it is possible to create a "get world save folder" function. I have been looking into it but I can't find anything on 1.16.x or even 1.15.x just outdated snippets of code that no longer work.

Is there version for 2020.5? I searched for it on GitHub but found nothing :/ and it would be cool to have it on version supporting 1.14.4 and being (in my feel) more stable than 2021.1.

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?

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?
