DLTX

IMPORTANT

Status: Supported
Minimum Version: 1.0

DLTX System - allows you to override values in a separate file, which should significantly reduce the number of mod conflicts and the need to manually merge mods.

items.ltx           <-- Original
mod_items_MODNAME.ltx <-- Mod file override

Overrides are done using attributes:

• ! - Override section or field
• !! - Delete section
• > - Add CSV field list
• < - Remove CSV field list

Section Override

To override a section, use the ! symbol before the section declaration. Let's say you have a section:

[some_section]:parent_section
price       = 5000
weight      = 1.0
friends     = me, myself, i

You use:

![some_section]

Field Override

To override a field in a section, override its section with the desired field. Let's say you want to override the price field in some_section:

[some_section]:parent_section
price       = 5000
weight      = 1.0
friends     = me, myself, i

You use:

![some_section]
price       = 10000

Section Deletion

To delete a section, delete all its fields and use the !! symbol before the section declaration

Let's say you have a section:

[some_section]:parent_section
price       = 5000
weight      = 1.0
friends     = me, myself, i

You use:

!![some_section]
!price
!weight
!friends

Field Deletion

To delete a field in a section, use the ! symbol before the field declaration For example, to delete the price field in some_section:

[some_section]:parent_section
price       = 5000
weight      = 1.0
friends     = me, myself, i

You use:

![some_section]
!price

Adding to Inheritance Section

To add a new parent section to another section, add it as usual, without listing all existing parent elements

Let's say you have a section:

[some_section]:parent_section
price       = 5000
weight      = 1.0
friends     = me, myself, i

You use:

![some_section]:some_other_section

Removing Inheritance Section

To remove a parent section, put the ! symbol before its name in the list of parents For example, to remove the parent_section from the parent section some_section:

[some_section]:parent_section
price       = 5000
weight      = 1.0
friends     = me, myself, i

You use:

![some_section]:!parent_section

Adding CSV Field List

To add an item to a CSV list, use the > symbol before the field declaration and list the items you want to add For example, to add the item you to the friends field in some_section:

[some_section]:parent_section
price       = 5000
weight      = 1.0
friends     = me, myself, i

You use:

![some_section]
>friends    = you

Removing CSV Field List

To remove an item from a CSV list, use the < symbol before the field declaration and list the items you want to remove For example, to remove the item myself from the friends field in the some_section section:

[some_section]:parent_section
price       = 5000
weight      = 1.0
friends     = me, myself, i

You use:

![some_section]
<friends = myself
