To modify vanilla items, you can include blank item entries in your custom schema with the same IDs as the ones you want to edit. From there, simply add new parameters, and they will merge with the original item's in game. If the same parameter or attribute is in both the vanilla item entry and the copy, then the copy's version will take priority. | |||
When attempting to override a item entry with the {{code|preset=3|baseitem}} parameter, you may have noticed that every other item with it disappears. To counteract this, include a blank copy of any base item you haven't modified in your custom item schema. It should be noted that any base items added to the vanilla item schema in updates must also be added to your custom schema, otherwise they will fail to appear in game. However, this is a rare occurrence, so constant maintenance won't be necessary. | |||
Below is an example {{code|custom_items_game.txt}} file that contains empty copies of every item with the {{code|preset=3|baseitem}} parameter. | Below is an example {{code|custom_items_game.txt}} file that contains empty copies of every item with the {{code|preset=3|baseitem}} parameter as of [[3.0.0]]. | ||
