LOOT User Rule Sync

A small executable to sync LOOT user metadata with presets

Structure

With these rule syncm I decided to keep it simple:

1. Presets
2. Overrides

A preset is mostly for Mod Pack Creators to be able to create LOOT rules for their users, editing the LOOT metadata is tedious, awkward workflow, and if users are setting up LOOT rules for the first time it can also be very annoying.

Overrides, on the other hand, are for those more advanced users who deviate from a preset but want to keep their own rules, overrides can be generated from the difference between the current ruleset - preset and will be created as a overrides/override.yml file, then whenever a preset updates the overrides will layer over the preset to retain manual changes.

Functions

• Apply: Replaces %applocal%/LOOT/Skyrim Special Edition/userlist.yaml with the chosen preset.yaml plus any override.yaml chosen, rules are not merged, they are overwritten, in grand old Skyrim style
• Generate Preset: Spits out userlist.yaml as a preset.yaml, not much to it.
• Generate Override: Takes the difference between the current userlist.yaml and a preset.yaml and generates a override.yaml
• List: Spits out your list of presets and overrides
