Edit your configs with notepad++ and save them in ANSI or UTF-8. I've already opened an issue over on TheElectronWill/Night-Config about this and they're aware that windows notepad defaults to include BOM headers which results in invalid configs.

Might also help to use Minecraft's mod configuration menu.

I think you're wrong. I edit all my config files in Sublime Text and all config files are functional except the weather2. It just keeps resetting all weather2 config files to default randomly. One time it lasts for three server restarts, other time it lasts just until next server restart. Let's just wait for @Corosauce to make conclusion.

If you think I'm wrong, please see @TheElectronWill/night-config/issue/67 .

Edit: wording, reee

[ProfessorFartsalot]

Notepad++ fixed my issue which is why I closed it on this repo.

Notepad++ fixed my issue which is why I closed it on this repo.

I don't think bugs are fixed like "Hey, download other program to fix bug that is only related to my mod.". Like you should not force users of your code to use specific program to make possible something simple as change config. If it works for literally every other mod, there must be a way how mod dev can improve his own code to allow users to make something easy as edit configs without any uneccessary difficulties. Just talking for another one million people that since 1.12 downloaded this mod. World configs are all .toml files as well and they are fully functional on my server although they are mostly edited as well.

There is no reason to further discuss this issue without Coro. He is the mod developer and he says if something will be done or not about this.

Edit: My config files in Sublime Text are automatically saved with UTF-8 encoding. I couldn't find any changelog related to this bug since 2.7.1 so I keep this as still actual. Tested with 2.7.1.

[ProfessorFartsalot]

Please post your config file over on the issue I linked, as TheElectronWill can look at it. He made NightConfig which is used by minecraft forge and I think this should be taken up with him and not corosauce as forge uses nightconfig to read the .toml file.

[ProfessorFartsalot]

In fairness, I agree that issues should not be fixed by other programs, but I'm telling you what the person who made the config system for forge told me, not what I think solves the problem. If you comment on the issue, the developer can add support for your editor.

Edit: Check if you have Byte order marks in your config file. If this is the case, no matter what you do, this issue cannot be resolved by corosauce. You have to report your issue to the forge repo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark

If there is no BOM in your file, then fair enough; this is an issue coro will have to fix.

I'm quite sure there is no BOM because my config files were saved with UTF-8 by default. I would have to select manually "UTF-8 with BOM" to have wrong encoding.

[ProfessorFartsalot]

If it is of no trouble, are you able to post the affected config files so that I can test them for you on my server with just weather2 and coroutil to confirm?

Weather2 Configs.zip Same config files that are used on my server and resetted each time randomly.

[ProfessorFartsalot]

Thank you. Give me a moment and I'll check with them.

[ProfessorFartsalot]

Okay, so I tried a few different methods to get your configs to work, and while they worked the first server start stop cycle, they did not work the next.

I reached out to Mrbt0907 who said that it's likely the variables were incorrectly defined. As such, I will also be reopening my issue #520 .
