Some mods come with config files, but they are usually in lua format, meaning u can't edit them after you launched the game.

This was mainly made to read from config files while ingame, I like to tweak values without restarting all my mods or restarting the game.

MODDERS INSTRUCTIONS

ConfigHelper is a small library for loading config files of any kind. You can access the config helper from any plugin, once installed.

easy to use

Simply import ConfigHelper after installation using

local ConfigHelper = require("ConfigHelper")

Features:

Load from config file

local MyConfig = ConfigHelper. GetConfig("ModFolderName", "ModIniName")

Save to config file

local MyConfig = ConfigHelper. SetConfig("ModFolderName", "ModIniName", "Key name", "NewValue", boolWriteIfNew)

Access loaded keys

local myVar = MyConfig.akey

Get ConfigHelper version

ConfigHelper. GetVersion()

All of the above can be done while the game is running, meaning you can edit your config files and reload the config ingame!
