Configuration

Configuration

RPGMood ships three config files, generated automatically in plugins/RPGMood/ on first start: config.yml, zones.yml, and triggers.yml. Edit them and run /rpgmood reload to apply changes.

• zones.yml — zone definitions. See Zones.
• triggers.yml — time/weather/block-break events. See Ambient Events.
• config.yml — everything else, detailed below.

death_messages

Fully documented on the Death Messages page. Top-level keys: fallback, causes, biomes, killers, killer_synonyms, armed, modifiers, location_name_templates, location_name_descriptors, location_names.

player_effects

Not hand-edited — RPGMood writes player_effects.<uuid>: true|false here automatically when a player runs /rpgmood toggle.
