Configs

The 1.20.1 config is suspected to be bugged and may not generate; you can try manually creating the config, but this isn't guaranteed to work properly.

The SWLM server config adds world-specific configurable settings for ore generation. It can be opened and edited with a simple text editing program like Notepad.

Singleplayer

MultiMC: Instance > Minecraft Folder (Right Sidebar) > Saves > [World Name] > Serverconfig > swlm-server.toml
CurseForge: Profile > ... (next to play) > Open Folder > Saves > [World Name] > Serverconfig > swlm-server.toml
Forge (Windows): [user]/AppData/Roaming/.minecraft/saves/[world name]/serverconfig/swlm-server.toml
Forge (Mac): ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/saves/[world name]/serverconfig/swlm-server.toml

Multiplayer (Server)

[server root]/[world name]/serverconfig/swlm-server.toml

If the config file is not in the folder, then try running the world again to generate it.
If its still not there, copy/paste the full default config (below) into a .txt file, edit the config values as you wish, name it 'swem-server.toml', and put the .txt file into the folder. The server should read it upon next start-up.

Configs Explained

General
Config: Short for configuration, which means to change something to your preference. 
Default: Means the one that is preset. If at any time you need to reset, the default config is always okay to return to.
Lines: Configs are read by the computer in lines, like programming code. The lines staying the way they are is very important.
#: Means everything in that line of the config will not be read by the computer. Changes made here will effect nothing.

Remember the primary rule for configs: Do not change ANY text that is not clearly written as a change like true/false, numbers, and lists. These changeable things will be clearly defined and look like test questions.

1.12.2 uses only a common config, while 1.16.5 and above use only serverconfigs. The below config explanation only reflects the 1.16.5+ serverconfigs.

    #Enable SWLMCobble ore generation?
	EnableSWLMCobbleOre = true

This says: Should SWLM Cobble generate naturally in the world. Must be true or false. Default is true.

    #SWLMCobble ore vein size
	#Range: > 1
	SWLMCobbleVeinSize = 7

This says: How big can SWLM Cobble veins be when they generate naturally. Must be greater than 1. Default is up to 7.

    #SWLMCobble ore vein count per chunk
	#Range: > 1
	SWLMCobbleVeinCount = 12

This says: How many SWLM Cobble veins can be in one chunk when they generate naturally. Must be greater than 1. Default is up to 12.

    #SWLMCobble ore minimum height
	#Range: > 1
	SWLMCobbleBottomHeight = 50

This says: What's the lowest Y-level SWLM Cobble can spawn at. Must be greater than 1. Default is level 50.

    #SWLMCobble ore maximum height
	#Range: > 1
	SWLMCobbleMaxHeight = 128

This says: What's the highest Y-level SWLM Cobble can spawn at. Must be greater than 1. Default is level 128.

Full (Default) Config

Troubleshooting

"I cannot see the options shown here!"

Check all of the following:

  • You are using the correct version of Minecraft for the config you want (e.g., the 1.12.2 config is different from the 1.16.5+ config).
  • You are using the latest release of the mod for your version of Minecraft - these values represent configs for the very latest release!

If you have confirmed the above and still do not have the options listed here you will need to reload your config file.

  1. Close your world if you are currently in it
  2. Go to your server config file for that specific world - how to get there is shown at the top of this page
  3. Open the file and make note of any values you have set if you have adjusted it before (if not, there is no need)
  4. Delete the swem-server.toml file
      • If using 1.12.2, you'll delete the starwormlighting.cfg file located in your config folder.
  5. Load into your Minecraft world to regenerate the config
  6. The newly generated config file should be a fresh default config
  7. Adjust and settings you need, save the file and reload into your world again to apply the changes!
