how do you do that?

2023.3?

The 5.7.3 version works with 2023.3 and the last snapshot (34614)

with both? Awesome! I thought I had to ditch the config file support for my recent mod.

Thanks again for another update Goldrion <3

Do you have an update coming for the 1.20.1 snapshot or will you be waiting for the 2023.3 full release?

I didn't have the motivation (and I forgot I had to update File Manager and Array Lists) 😅

stuff happens, I get it. :-)

How do you create folders?

I would like them to add a block that deletes the files since I noticed that it does not have a procedure that does and I had to do it manually with (custom code snippet) when they update it I would like them to add that.

please.

I don't add it on purpose because if someone uses the block incorrectly because the user doesn't know how everything works or if the person wants to delete files from the players' computers, I don't want to help this. So I just let users that need it to do it themself.

ah ok, so you mean it's better to do it manually?

Where json iteration (for element in jsonobject do ...)?

It doesn't exist

use as addition the arraylist plugin of goldorion
than you have a list and you can use the standard loop of mcreator

or you use the procedure plus plugin too and have a basic for loop from java with iteration variable

Crash server(
I spent a lot of time to make a crafting system through it, everything worked. I put it on the server and immediately crash...

crash by get game directory

is there a way to fix the plugin not working when porting form a 4.x to 5.x version? none of the blocks are appearing nor are the variables which makes it quite literally impossible for me to use even after removing the plugin and restarting and putting it back in and restarting again etc etc

Breaking changes have been made, so you have 2 options.
1. Remake from scratch what you made.
2. Open the ZIP file (using 7ZIP for example), then open plugin.json and change the id for something else and save everything. Then, you can use both versions at the same time.

I keep getting a "cannot find symbol" error telling me that the variable I have set to the file I'm editing and the newLine method both don't exist
