- What is the import folder for?
- Most people don't know the real use of the import folder. After you do, you will wonder
- what you ever did without it.
- The main thing it does, is provide a way for you to change your config settings without
- having to update the files every time you update your server. You store your changes, and
- the rest are updated with rAthena (usually though SVN).
- How does this work?
- Well, you place only the settings you have changed in the import files. I'll use
- battle_athena.conf and battle_conf.txt for my example. Everytime you update you conf
- folder, using the normal method, you have to go and edit the configs again. So, you have to
- redo your rates, redo your ip addresses, you have to redo it all. Well, not with the import
- system.
- Say you want to change your base experience rate from the default (100)to 7x (700). Well
- then you would place this in your import/battle_conf.txt:
- // Rate at which exp. is given. (Note 2)
- base_exp_rate: 700
- You don't need the comment (duh, it's a commnet), but I usually leave them for clarity
- sake.
- So, now this new setting take place over the setting in battle_athena.conf. You just keep
- this file everytime you update, and your setting will always be there. Neat, isn't it?
- So, yeah, that's what the import folder is for. I hope to see a lot more people use it, to
- make my life as a managed server runer better.
