About the plugin

Cloth Config API is a plugin adding a new mod element allowing you to create config screen and file.

There are two config templates where the description of each block is commented.

Is there a way how I can change bolean variables with a procedure? So not only via the ingame menu but also via a procedure?

Added, install version 1.2

Is there a way how I can recognize if the player has changed the config in game so something like a trigger?

That plugin is pretty much interesting, but I see no way to interact with the boolean values. Actually i have an overlay that I want an menu option to show or hide it. How can I interact with the boolean? Where's the procedure? How do I check "If Bolean = true/false"?

In Procedure, there is a new category called Config Variable, there are 5 blocks in this category, the blue block is related to Boolean.

Oh, my bad. Maybe I should redo my glasses... lol

tbh, there are too many variants of blue making it harder to tell one from another especially between boolean and subcategory. I'm a bit sight impaired so they blend too closely for me. :-(

Unless I'm missing something, I see no way to add any variables. The right side (in workspace) isn't there where I'd normally add them, so nothing would work right without it. Even the two config templates don't compile either. The above says to enable Cloth Config which I did, but seems there are two of them (cloth-config and Cloth Config). Tried cloth-config, then with Cloth Config and then without cloth-config and still had same issues. - Trying 1.20.4 NeoForge in case that matters.

Thank you for letting me know, the variables must be global, that's why there is nothing to add variables on the right side, about the API, I checked and it was only a Cloth Config API and I didn't see cloth-config, and for the colors as soon as possible I will change them

Thanks for the detail - Global variables are now showing up. :-) Still having a bit of issues with categories being valid. The two templates don't work. Do you have a live example of one? I think that would help greatly to show screenshots of something that works.

according to your code in github, it looks like ConfigCategory is looking for variables. Did you define global variables to get yours working? I suspect you did, but this page doesn't reference them. :-(

In the category block, there is a field in the first line, which is the name of the category variable, for example, in the above photos, in the second photo, general is the category variable.

yeah, but that doesn't compile. I created an issue on github and copied exactly what you have in the screenshots and it just doesn't like it.

to be clear, I created a global variable for general and without knowing exactly what type of variable, it won't work. I went thru the obvious ones, bu no luck. If you created variables for your two examples, could you please post them so we know what they are? :-)
