Config

Everything the Cultivation mod can be tuned with lives under mods/Siren_Cultivation/, updated here for Cultivation v0.11.0. Rather than one enormous file, the settings are split into themed files and grouped into folders - three files at the root, the progression core in Cultivation/, everything a cultivator practices in Arts/, everything that only matters because other cultivators exist in Society/, the Endless Leveling handoff in Compatibility/, one file per playable race in Race/, and the server's own runtime save state in Data/. That is 91 settings files in all, plus 51 data files; the folder layout below lists every one and the page that documents it.

Every settings file carries its own ConfigName and ConfigVersion. The version increases automatically whenever that file's layout or balance changes, and your existing settings are migrated for you - you never need to edit ConfigVersion by hand, and setting it backwards only causes the migration to run again. Files also contain Description-* string fields, which are documentation rather than settings: the mod rewrites them to their current text on load, so editing one does nothing.

Most of the values on these pages can also be changed live, in game, with /cultivation admin instead of touching JSON - the note below says what the editor does not reach. See the Commands and Permissions pages for how to reach it.

As of 0.5.0, other mods can add their own sections to that editor, appearing beside Cultivation's own on the Config tab and in an admin-only block of the settings menu. Anything you see there that is not documented on these pages belongs to another mod - see API Addons.

The editor covers checkboxes, whole numbers, decimals and dropdowns; most text-valued settings (asset ids, weather ids, world names, comma-separated lists) stay in the files. As of v0.11.0 it has 62 sections and 710 settings, and 59 of the 91 settings files have a section of their own. The Endless Leveling section (4 settings) is hidden unless that mod is installed. Cultivation's own sections are ordinary API registrations, which is what lets an add-on reorder, hide or replace one - see Registries.

Searching the Config tab

v0.11.0 The Config tab (Config Values) of /cultivation admin has a search bar above its panes. Type a word or two and press Enter or Search, and the editor finds every matching setting across all of Cultivation's configs - and any add-on's sections - without you knowing which file it lives in.

• What it matches. A setting's name, its tooltip, its config-file key, and the name of the config it belongs to. Names are matched in your own language and in English, so either works. Punctuation is ignored, so Qi-Cost, qi cost and QiCost all find the same setting, and a key copied straight from a JSON file (Array-Base-Qi-Cost) works as typed.
• More than one word. Every word must match somewhere in the setting or its config's name. A short word (three letters or fewer) must start a word of the name - tea finds Tea Buff Minutes but not Steady; a word of four letters or more can match anywhere inside it. Chinese, which has no spaces to split on, also matches anywhere.
• Searching a config's name shows that whole config.
• Results are the real rows. They are grouped under each config's name with a count, they are editable in place, and Save works from the results without ever opening the config's own section. The list stops at 150 rows with a note to add a word and narrow it.
• All Configs or This Config. While a search is active, two buttons appear: All Configs (the default) shows every group, and This Config narrows the results to the one config picked on the left. Either way the list on the left shrinks to only the configs that have a match.
• No match shows No Matches and keeps the full list on the left; clicking a config there leaves the search and opens it. Clear also leaves the search and returns to the normal view.

Search finds only what the editor can edit. The settings and files listed in the note above still have to be edited as files.

The folder groups

Folder layout

Every file below lives under mods/Siren_Cultivation/. The last column says whether the in-game /cultivation admin editor has a section for the file - for many, it covers only part of the file; the file's page says which part.

Root

Cultivation/

Arts/

Society/

Compatibility/

Race/

Data/

The 51 files in Data/ are save state, not settings. Data Files says what each one stores and what deleting it costs.
