Custom Placeholders

In Game Config Screen

Simple RPC has a full in-game config screen, accessible from ModMenu or the Mods menu in NeoForge/Forge. You will need Cloth Config installed to use it.

You can add your own Custom Placeholders, that can be used for anything from text, to images. This makes it easier to specify your own placeholder, for your modpack logo for example. That way, if you ever change the logo, you only have to change it one place.

Default Config

By default, the placeholders section of the config looks like this:

config/simple-rpc/simple-rpc.toml

#Custom Config Variables that you can use
[custom]
    #Must these variables be parsed along with other variables
    enabled = false

    #Your custom variables to add
    variables = []

To add your own variables, remove variables = [] and replace it with the following:

config/simple-rpc/simple-rpc.toml

[[custom.variables]]
    #The name of your variable. Will be parsed into {{custom.variablename}}
    name = "mycustomvar"
    #The value that this variable will output
    value = "Hello World 2"

This will add a placeholder under {{custom.mycustomvar}}.

Mixing Custom Variables with Built-In Variables

You can also use built-in variables inside your custom variables.
