• Consider always making backup for your world ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE UPDATING THE MOD, level up is a mod that changes a lot of stats and mechanics that might crash your world/player.
• Is not safe to remove levelup after installation, full player wipe is required
• Strongly recommended to backup your world on level up major updates
• If you don't change the configurations manually consider deleting it in every update sometimes the updates comes with balance changes you can find the configuration in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\VintagestoryData\ModConfig\LevelUP or linux: /home/user/.config/VintagestoryData/ModConfig/LevelUP

Not all item codes is added to the json configurations files, some armors/items/meats/entities/blocks can be missing, if you think something is missing from vanilla you can contact me or make a pull request in the github.

The mods simple increase your status, use a lot of shovel? then your dig speed will be increased, you love bows and only use them? become a ranged killing machine increasing accuracy/damage and increasing chance to keep arrow after hit, you prefer to be a smithing and only smiths items? well other players will love you because your craftings now will have increased damage/durability and stats.

You can view what each level will do ingame docs H

Configurations will be located in the folder ModConfig/LevelUP, if you want more informations you can see the wiki to know what each configuration does, if any update from levelup add new configuration you will need to manually added them to fix logs errors, otherwises will have the default value.

Level UP Stores datas with the player UID, changing the player name will persist all levels.

This mod changes a lot of native codes and usage of transpilers and can break easily throught updates.

Level UP is a mod that adds several types of events to player actions, don't expect the mod to be lightweight (for big servers).

The experience data is saved everytime the world is saved or the player disconnect from the server, if the server dies unexpectedly, experiences may be lost for a few minutes since the last save.

LevelUP was built to work on large dedicated servers, experiences will be saved in the "ModData" folder separately for each user within the game, you can manually edit it or do whatever you want. (Edit while server is running will be overwrited by LevelUP, close server first)

English is not my main language, if you encounter any translation problems, please let me know.

"My custom weapon from my mod does not work with level up!!", check your weapon json, find the "tool" section:

{
    "tool": "axe"
}

If the weapon doesn't have "tool", add it to fix the problem, levelup support only: shovel,axe,spear,sword,pickaxe,hammer,knife, "but my weapon uses a custom type that levelup does not support what i need to do?" in that case is more complicated, you need to edit your mod and use the mod api to listen for levelup event (OnPlayerMeleeDoDamageStart and OnPlayerRangedDoDamageStart). full example can be found in Sword Level Source Code

"But my custom armor also don't work...", if your armor is made of: leather/chain/brigandine/plate/scale then you are lucky, open the configurations from one of the armor type in ModConfig/LevelUP/config/levelstats and put the item id inside it, if not..., well you will need to integrate a custom level in your mod, in that case the api will help you. full example can be found in Leather Armor Level Source Code

"None of my food mods work with levelup!!!!", is very simple to fix that, manually edit ModConfig/LevelUP/config/levelstats/cookingsingles.json for singular foods and ModConfig/LevelUP/config/levelstats/cookingpots.json for custom pots.

"I have custom classes and a lot of warning is called in my console", this is because you need to add your custom classes inside ModConfig/LevelUP/config/classexp. Examples in the Wiki

Vitality will overwrite the health system, you need manually change configurations in levelstats/vitality.json changing in default game configuration will have no effects, if you don't want this feature consider disabling in configuration before generating or joining in the world

Metabolism works as the same as vitality, changing base saturation ingame will have no effect you need to change in levelstats/metabolism.json

Debug logs is by default disabled, if you need to send logs you can send logs to issues, you can enable it in base.json: enableExtendedLog.

I strongly recommend to send game breaking bugs to issues, i don't receive notifications in vsmoddb

This is just an estimate of what can affect a server's performance, if you are having lag problems try disabling what consumes more cpu first.
