[Feature request] Save/load changes #58

Closed Lolcroc closed 2 years ago

Lolcroc commented 2 years ago

Not sure if this fits in the design of the mod, but it would be nice to save or load all changes to configuration files (i.e. away from defaults) as a file of some kind. This way I can track my entire configuration somewhere on my PC between modpacks or when sharing with friends. If interested I can also try to write something and make a pull request, let me know. Much love xoxo

I can definitely add an option to show which config values have been changed in the menu (e.g. highlighted names). If you can more clearly describe your use case then I may understand better what is needed. From my perspective you can visually see if a value is different by comparing it to the default value specified in the comment (in the raw toml file).

Never mind!

I originally intended for easy saving and loading of config values, because sometimes on some set of mods I have many small changes in various config files that are impossible to remember. If I am transitioning to a new MC version or different mod pack I need to manually copy over those settings, because custom launchers keep those files in distinct locations. However I found that Forge is able to autocomplete outdated or partially filled configuration files, so my feature request can simply be done by copy-pasting the entire config folder between different MC distributions. This is not very pretty but it works fine.
