KDataForge lets you rebalance and create Satisfactory game content (recipes, items, buildings, gameplay tags, and more) with plain YAML files, no code or editor required.

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td style="background:#e8a202;padding:6px 14px;border-radius:6px 6px 0 0;border:none"><strong style="color:#1a1a2e;font-size:18px">What Is KDataForge?</strong></td></tr></table>

KDataForge is a reflection-based runtime content editor. Drop `.yml` files into `<GameFolder>/FactoryGame/DataForge/` and it applies them at startup: no C++, no Blueprint, no cooking. It can edit any reflected property on any class default object or data asset, register gameplay tags, generate entirely new items/buildings/recipes/schematics, and patch spawned actors live.

Full grammar, examples for every document type, and task-oriented tutorials live in the [documentation](https://docs.k-mods.com/kdataforge/).

- Edit any reflected property on any class default object: numbers, texts, arrays, maps, structs, object references
- 22 property operations: `set`, `multiply`, `clamp`, `append`, `remove`, `sort`, `copy`, and more
- Target class defaults, single data assets, or all assets of a class at once
- Reference classes by their short name (e.g. `Desc_Water`) instead of the full asset path
- Conditional documents: apply only for certain game versions, installed mods, or existing classes
- Trace every applied change with debug logging: per file (`debug: true`), per pack, or globally (`KDF.Debug 1` / `-KDFDebug`), each op logged with its before/after values

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td style="background:#e8a202;padding:6px 14px;border-radius:6px 6px 0 0;border:none"><strong style="color:#1a1a2e;font-size:18px">Content Creation</strong></td></tr></table>

- Create new items, resources, buildings, recipes, schematics, research trees and unlocks from YAML: no editor, no cooking
- Generated content is savegame-stable: deterministic id-based classes plus a tombstone manifest mean your saves load cleanly even after packs change or disappear
- Rename ids safely with pack `redirects:` so old saves keep working
- Register existing classes (e.g. hidden schematics from other mods) without generating anything
- Go beyond the preset types with `type: class`: generate a class from any parent (equipment descriptors, categories, other mods' classes, …), C++ or Blueprint
- Ship your own 2D images (PNG/JPG/TGA/BMP) in a pack and use them as item or building icons: loaded at runtime, no cooking

- Register new gameplay tags at runtime from YAML; add/remove/clear tags on any tag container property
- `applyToSpawnedActors: true` re-applies your values to every actor instance the moment it spawns: even values that saves or archetypes would normally override

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td style="background:#e8a202;padding:6px 14px;border-radius:6px 6px 0 0;border:none"><strong style="color:#1a1a2e;font-size:18px">Content Packs & Session Loading</strong></td></tr></table>

- Group files into packs with a `pack.yml` manifest (name, version, priority, dependencies) for deterministic load order across packs and files
- DataForge YAML is loaded once during session initialization; restart the session after changing files
- `/kdf report` prints a full load report with warnings and errors
- Broken files never block loading: you get warnings instead

- Create real PrimaryDataAsset instances from YAML: e.g. new KAPI cleaner items or RefinedR&D boiler/heater/turbine data assets
- Edit any mod's existing data assets with plain `cdo` documents (single asset, all assets of a class, or by gameplay tag)
- Create or edit curves with `type: curve`: `UCurveFloat` and `UCurveVector`, including interpolation, tangents, defaults, and extrapolation
- Auto-rescan: KAPI and RefinedR&D (RefinedPower / FicsitFarming) are notified after the initial load, without KDataForge requiring those mods

| Command | Where | Effect |
| -------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `/kdf report` | chat | Prints the load report: packs, applied documents, ops, warnings, errors |
| `/kdf editor` | chat (host) | Toggles the in-game editor: browse content, edit properties live, undo/redo, and export changes to YAML |
| `/kdf debug on\|off` | chat | Flips global debug logging (same switch as `KDF.Debug`); bare `/kdf debug` toggles the current state |
| `KDF.Editor` | console | Same as `/kdf editor` |
| `KDF.Debug 1` | console (or `-KDFDebug`) | Global debug logging: one `[KDF DEBUG]` line per applied op, including editor edits |
| `KDF.ApplyToAssets [PathFilter]` | console (UE editor builds only) | Applies loaded YAML directly onto editor assets and marks packages dirty |

- Reflection-based property engine: supports every reflectable UObject property type, including Blueprint structs and PrimaryDataAssets
- Fixed stage pipeline (tags → assets → localization → CDO changes → content → validation)
- Vanilla value snapshots power editor diffs, undo support, and changes-only export
- Extensible C++/Blueprint handler API for other mods (`IKDFDataEditorHandler`)
- Dedicated server compatible
