Automatic save of config files

[lightface79]

Hi!

Running the Valheim Plus service.. love your menus.

But needed to try the upgrade funktion hense there was a update today on the plus.

the upgrade worked like it should.

BUT!!!! The config file was erased and replaced with a new config file. So needed to redo all my setings on plus config file.

Can u add a option to save the old file somwere so i can check what i changed and put it in the new config.

Best regards Janne// Sweden

I added it already because I knew their configs would overwrite...

but I did not check the backup directory.

I added it

     tput setaf 2;  echo "Update found!" ; tput setaf 9; 
 tput setaf 2;  echo "Do you wish to continue?" ; tput setaf 9; 
   read -p "Please confirm:" confirmValPlusUpdate
  if [ "$confirmValPlusUpdate" == "y" ]; then
    tput setaf 2; echo "Making quick backup of valheim_plus.cfg" ; tput setaf 9; 
    dldir=$backupPath
    [ ! -d "$dldir" ] && mkdir -p "$dldir"
        sleep 1
    cp ${valheimInstallPath}/BepInEx/config/valheim_plus.cfg ${backupPath}/valheim_plus.cfg.old-$(date +"%m-%d-%y-%r")
    tput setaf 2; echo "Grabbing Latest from Valheim Plus and Installing!" ; tput setaf 9;

Ok so it is already added the backup prcidure in the last update u made? or the backup directory was not set to a specific location?

When we do a -16 backup World Data can u implement the config files as well in that backup =)

Thanks again

The config file for Valheim+ was not being saved because the backup directory was not created, if backsups where never used.

Now it will check if the backup dir is created and if not, create it and then dump a copy over.

Not sure, if I should had the v+ config to the backup tar... but I can add the backup script to make a copy of the v+ config and place it in the backup dir.

V+ is going to have soooo many changes... its going to be a crazy ride. I will come up with something... let me think about it.
