Hello! Are you referring to the "Enhancing Your Mod" page? That has instructions for adding settings using the Nautilus ConfigFile class. Can you explain a little about what isn't clear, and what might help to make the page more useful, and I can incorporate some changes to improve the guide?

yes i was referring to the "Enhancing Your Mod" page and when i was trying to add settings to my mod it wasn't clear that the variable type had to be the config file class so in my main file it was referencing the Nautilus one

I've added some text below the "let's add a 'float' option" code that reads:

Your new ModOptions class inherits from the Nautilus ConfigFile class, so when you want to refer to the settings in your main mod code, you need to refer to that new ModOptions class, not the ConfigFile class.

And then below the code that shows the static initialisation of the ModOptions in the main plugin class:

You'll see here that we have created a static reference of our new ModOptions class. This allows us to access the properties of that class from anywhere within our plugin. For example, to access the damage modifier we can simply write: KnifeDamagePlugin.ModOptions.DamageMultiplier

Will that help, do you think?
