Accessing the Menu

Unlike older modding standards that required you to restart the game to change settings, YAML Config provides a unified, in-game dashboard to manage everything on the fly.

The Default Keybinding​

By default, the global configuration menu can be opened by pressing:

F12

Changing the Keybinding​

If F12 conflicts with another mod (or a system screenshot key), you can easily rebind it:

  1. Open the Minecraft Pause Menu (Esc).
  2. Go to Options > Controls > Key Binds.
  3. Scroll down to the YAML Config category.
  4. Click on Open Configs Screen and press your desired key.

The Configs Screen​

When you press the hotkey, you will be greeted by the Configs Screen. This screen acts as a hub for all installed mods that utilize the YAML Config library.

  • Mod List: You will see cards for every supported mod.
  • Search/Navigation: If you have many mods installed, they will be organized in a grid.
  • Opening a Config: Simply click the button corresponding to the mod name (e.g., "Jobs+", "GriefLogger") to enter its specific settings.

Server-Side vs. Client-Side​

When you click a mod in the list:

  1. Client Configs: These open immediately. You are editing the file located on your own computer.
  2. Common/Server Configs:
    • If you are in Singleplayer, it opens immediately.
    • If you are in Multiplayer:
      • If you are OP (Operator): The client requests the config from the server. The menu opens, allowing you to edit global server settings.
      • If you are NOT OP: You will only be able to view client side configs. Common and server configs will be hidden, as you do not have permission to edit them.
