Content Scaffolding

Content files in this folder will be copied for all users (old and new) on the server startup.

  1. You must create an index.json file in /default/scaffold for it to work. The syntax is the same as for default content.
  2. All file paths should be relative to /default/scaffold, the use of subdirectories is allowed.
  3. Scaffolded files are copied first, so they override any of the default files (presets/settings/etc.) that have the same file name.

Example

[
    {
        "filename": "themes/Midnight.json",
        "type": "theme"
    },
    {
        "filename": "backgrounds/city.png",
        "type": "background"
    },
    {
        "filename": "characters/Charlie.png",
        "type": "character"
    }
]
