Structures Tweaker Configuration Guide
=====================================

This folder contains configuration files for the Structures Tweaker mod.

GLOBAL CONFIGURATION
-------------------
The 'global.json' file sets default behavior for ALL structures.
Configure your server-wide settings here first.

INDIVIDUAL STRUCTURE CONFIGS
---------------------------
Each structure can have its own config file in subfolders by mod:
  - minecraft/village_plains.json
  - dungeons_arise/shiraz_palace.json
  - etc.

These individual files only need to contain settings that differ from
the global defaults. For example:

global.json (server defaults):
{
  "config": {
    "canBreakBlocks": false,
    "canPlaceBlocks": false,
    "blockBreakWhitelist": ["minecraft:spawner", "minecraft:chest"],
    "blockPlaceWhitelist": ["minecraft:torch", "minecraft:ladder"]
  }
}

minecraft/stronghold.json (dungeon with restrictions):
{
  "individualOverrides": {
    "canBreakBlocks": false,
    "blockBreakBlacklist": ["minecraft:end_portal_frame", "minecraft:bedrock"]
  }
}

In this setup, most structures prevent breaking/placing blocks but allow
torches and ladders to be placed. The stronghold specifically prevents
breaking the end portal frame, even if breaking becomes allowed.

LIST MERGING BEHAVIOR
---------------------
**IMPORTANT**: List properties (whitelists/blacklists) are ADDITIVE!
Individual configs ADD to global lists, they don't replace them.

Example:
  Global: "itemUseBlacklist": ["minecraft:flint_and_steel"]
  Individual: "itemUseBlacklist": ["minecraft:tnt"]
  Result: ["minecraft:flint_and_steel", "minecraft:tnt"]

This means you can:
- Set common restrictions in global.json
- Add structure-specific restrictions without losing global ones
- Build cumulative protection rules

Boolean/other properties still REPLACE (not merge).

HOW PRIORITY WORKS
-----------------
Settings are applied in this order:
1. Individual structure config (highest priority, ADDS to lists)
2. Global config
3. Mod defaults (if nothing else is set)

- blockPlaceWhitelist : Blocks that can always be placed, overrides canPlaceBlocks restriction (e.g., minecraft:torch, minecraft:ladder) (default: [])

TIPS
----
- Start by configuring global.json with your server's base rules
- Only create individual configs for structures that need exceptions
- Delete individual config files to make structures use global defaults
- The mod automatically cleans up old/invalid settings from files
- Changes take effect after server restart or /reload command
- See availableconfigs.txt for a complete list of all config options
