LethalConfig

LethalConfig is a mod configuration menu that allows players to edit their configs from within the game. It also provides a simple API for developers to customize their mod and config entries.

Usage

Automatic generation

As of 1.1.0, LethalConfig automatically generates mod entries and detect all ConfigEntry's declared by said mods, and tries its best to generate the correct UI components.

It'll assign a default mod icon and will have a disclaimer in the mod's and config's descriptions about them being automatically generated and that they may require a restart, as there's no way for LethalConfig to tell if a setting will take effect immediately or not.

Unless you're a mod developer that wants to customize their mod icon and description, manually setup the UI components (e.g. use a slider instead of a number text field), or mark settings as non-restart required, you don't need to do anything else other than installing the mod.

Some types may not have a UI component developed for it yet. In these cases, LethalConfig will ignore the ConfigEntry. More types will be covered over time.

Setting up

To start using LethalConfig on your mod, add a reference on your project to the LethalConfig's dll file. You can get the dll by downloading the LethalConfig mod.

To access the API, simply use the LethalConfig namespace or import it on your source file:

using LethalConfig;

It is also recommended to add a BepInDependency attribute to your plugin to hint BepInEx that your mod has a dependency to it:

[BepInPlugin(PluginInfo.Guid, PluginInfo.Name, PluginInfo.Version)]

[BepInDependency("ainavt.lc.lethalconfig")]

public class MyVeryCoolPlugin: BaseUnityPlugin {...

}

Adding a ConfigItem

With everything setup, you should now have access to the main LethalConfigManager and are able to add any of the available components you want.

First, you create your ConfigEntry from BepInEx like you would normally:

var configEntry = Config.Bind("General", "Example", 0, "This is an example component!");

With your ConfigEntry in hand, you can now create and register a new item to the menu by using the following method:

var exampleSlider = new IntSliderConfigItem(configEntry, new IntSliderOptions

{

Min = 0,

Max = 100

});

LethalConfigManager.AddConfigItem(exampleSlider);

And that's it, you now have created your first component!

LethalConfig automatically picks up some of your mod info, and it automatically creates sections based on the section of the provided ConfigEntry, so you do not have to worry about any extra setup in terms of layout.

ConfigItem restart requirement

By default, all items will be set to require a restart if changed. This will give a warning to the player once they apply the settings.

If you want your items to not be flagged as restart required, simply
