Categories

MCPets 4.0.0 introduced the in-game editor to simply modify categories in game, so make sure to check it out using /mcpets editor

That will save you some time not diving in configurations anymore!

What for ?

Categories are a way of organizing your pets in the "/mcpets" menu by grouping in them sections.

How to ?

To create a category, follow these steps:

• Go into "./plugins/MCPets/Categories" folder

• Create a new YAML file calling it however you want.

  • Exemple : "all_pets.yml"

• You can have a look at the category template below to complete the fields

If you want to change the icon in the pet menu, you can either try to do it by hand or import an item from the game using /mcpets item add <category_name> to then fetch the item directly into the menuIcons.yml in ./plugins/MCPets/ folder.

# What should be the title of the category in the mcpets menu
DisplayName: "Category title"
# What should be the name of the icon of the category in the menu
IconName: "Category name"
# (Optional) if you set DefaultCategory to true, all the pets are gonna be added to that category by default
DefaultCategory: false
# (Optional) you can exclude all the pets that belong to some other categories by listing it here
ExcludedCategories:
  - mounts_category
  - battle_pets_category
# Here you can set your icon. This is not the usual syntax.
# If you want to format any item into that format directly in game,
# take the said item in your hand and add it to MCPets through /mcpets item add <category_name>
# Then fetch it directly into the "menuIcons.yml" folder within MCPets folder
