A config library for Minecraft that makes it easy to handle saving and loading config data to and from config files
About this Mod
What is Tulip?
Tulip is a lightweight and easy-to-use config library for Minecraft that simplifies the process of saving and loading data to and from config files. With its simple API, Tulip allows you to easily manage your mod's config settings. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced modder, Tulip's intuitive design means that it is easy to handle things like saving and loading data all while the mod handles errors for you.
You can use this mod to add configurations to your mods. To clarify, this mod isn't for making config screens (where other config libraries do so), this library is for handling saving and loading. You will have to create your own config screen class to handle actually dealing with your mod's data.
Well, where do I find a source to learn how to use this library?
I've made a GitHub wiki page that explains every step in the process of using Tulip, as well as setting up a simple config screen along with it. You can find it here.
IMPORTANT
Please note that most likely older versions of Tulip are broken and should be considered broken even if they aren't. If you're a mod creator and would like to use Tulip, please be sure to download the latest version of Tulip.
Potential Future Additions
- Quick config screen creation

Server lagging with Tulip – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Tulip consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
