Configuration Files

Configuration FIles is a plugin that allows for the creation of mod configuration files, through which parts of your mod can be enabled, disabled or modified using variable values stored inside it. Those values can then be changed by the mod's users, allowing for more control over your mod's features.

 

How to use?

Configurations are very simple to use. You will first need to create a configuration element.

Once created, you can make a configuration category and add variable types to it. Note that registry name types are considered texts.

You can then use the variables in procedures by following the example below.

And that's it! The Configuration Files will generate once the game is loaded.

The plugin supports versions 1.16.5-1.19.2, but doesn't support 2022.2. Therefore you will need to install the forge generator 1.16.5 plugin for 2022.3 if you plan on using this with 1.16.5

This is a Java Plugin and therefore requires the Java Plugins feature to be enabled.
